Six-year-old B-Girl Terra holds it down. I have been totally smitten (and slightly obsessed) with this sultry, groovy and soulful funk-rock extravaganza. 

(Slightly belated) Happy New Year from Tokyo!

  14. ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!!!

  15. B-girl Terra,is da bomb! Amazing skills and attitude to spare. I just love how she puts a modern spin on old-school moves: she’s very sophisticated for a dancer so young. All the best, young lady!

  16. Absolutely amazing little girl! Just loved watching every minute of it. Can’t wait to see more videos of her

    I watched it with my 17 year old daughter and her mouth was open and eyes wide couldn’t believe what she was seeing….I think you are gorgeous and so talented little one…congrats…

  18. […] Mother London challenged a bunch of heavy internet users to not use the internet and six-year-old B-Girl Terra performs one of the best dance routines you are likely to see this […]

  19. You made my day. I cherish a hope through your eyes. Beyond doubt.

  20. Wowee, this girl has had Gymnastics since she could walk I would bet……Or a Great teacher or parent…….<3

  27. She not only got my attention, but Justin Timberlake’s as well….because that’s what brought me here. Love! Love! Love!

  28. That is absolutely amazing! She is a great dancer at 6. I have a 6 year old daughter myself, and would love for her to be able to dance like that. Just goes to show us Adults how intelligent kids are these days!

  29. How inspiring!! Little Miss Terra has a gift and could easily be in a commercial selling fitness-related merchandise or anything else, for that matter.

    At an early age, she’s learning physical fitness … through *breakdancing*, of all things! Now if SHE’s breakdancing, I need to stop playing and finally learn myself!

    Awesome video. I’m so proud of you and keep it up, Little Terra!

    Very talented. Who knows, she can make dance an even big deal later on in her life.

    As much as I love seeing kids doing what they love, it shocks me to see a 6 year old putting her finger under her throat as if menacing to slash someone’s throat. I’m not even sure she knows what this means.

  39. Wow, très impressionnant! Elle est vraiment géniale. Bravo!

  40. She is just beautiful.. Damn I need a dancing lesson from her….

  41. Very talented, I’m GETTING my grandsons into some dance classes….just have tp find one near me…
