Afghanistan's first female breakdancer sets sights on Paris Olympics


“I want to become a good role model in Afghanistan.”Many conservative Afghans frown on dancing of any description, and even more vehemently object to a woman’s public participation - some of them violently. Talash says she has received death threats, but she’s still dancing.0Just being female can be dangerous in Afghanistan. “When I think about the possible return of the Taliban and that maybe I cannot continue practising breakdancing, I become very upset,” said Talash. “I think it is very good that women can do such a sport like break-dancing,” said breakdancer and instructor Sajad Temurian. Talash doesn’t say so, but her bravery could be a more valuable quality than her physical strength.
