The
New Image Productions began as a Hip Hop Street Dance Crew consisted of
countless performances locally around the communities in Hawaii. At the end of the New Image Dance Crew in
1998, they initiated and promoted “breakdancing.” Former “Bboys” and “breakdancers” themselves,
they wanted to positively contribute to their community and so they started
teaching the art of this dance to local youth.
Since 1998, Clifton Abuan, the founder of New Image Productions
continued to spread the art of Bboying by coordinating numerous hip hop dance
events at local parties, shopping malls and other various venues. It gave local upcoming bboy dancers an
opportunity to showcase their talent.
New Image Productions expanded internationally by promoting bboying in
the Philippines. Since 2007, New Image’s
biggest breakdance tours included exhibitions for local governments that wanted
to build the breakdance movement nationally in their country. Currently in
progress, New Image Productions is producing a first time full-length
documentary “Pinoy BBoy” that will feature the breakdancing movement in the
Philippines and its worldwide impact.
New Image Productions has worked alongside many of the top globally
well-known breakdancers for its promotional events. By providing opportunities for creativity and
unity for local and international breakdancers, New Image Productions has made
an impact in the breakdance community.
New Image Productions has become known in the Philippines and Hawaii as
one of the leading innovators of the most talented kids in the Island of Kauai
in Hawaii. In the early 1990s, the crew
had Bboy culture and dance, and is widely respected worldwide in the
breakdance-bboy community.
