On Saturday April 1st, the Pro Breaking Tour made its 8th official stop of the 2017 calendar year in Saline, Michigan. The event? Master The Art 14. In its 14th edition, Master The Art is one of the longest running events in the mid west. With Michigan having such a young and promising scene, MTA14 was a perfect event for new up and coming bboys/bgirls to showcase their skills and test themselves vs bboys/bgirls of their same caliber. Events like MTA are needed, they are great training grounds for the future generation to harness their skills.
MTA (hosted by Soul Drunk) featured a 3 vs 3 breaking battle with the prizes being $900.00 for 1st place, $300.00 for 2nd place and 3rd & 4th place taking $150.00 respectively. The DJ at the event was none other than Massive Monkees own DJ BlesOne.
