Me too!! She definitely deserves it, she was soo damn good in the movie! I swear everyone loved her from the moment she came on screen. You know you did something special with a role when you’ve been that memorable!

Red Bull BC One South Africa | B-Girl Courtnaé & B-Boy Reign Supreme Again
In a cypher full of legacy and fresh talent, B-Girl Courtnaé Paul and B-Boy Toufeeq proved once again they're the breakers others in SA are measured by.
Emerging victorious at the 2025 Red Bull BC One South Africa Cypher, these two champions have cemented their place at the top of the game, in what has now become a showcase of the best of the best in South African breaking.
B-Boy Jandre
This year’s event marked a milestone (18 years of Red Bull BC One in South Africa) and fittingly delivered a final battle lineup that was as elite as the competition's legacy itself. With the strongest bracket the cypher has ever seen, the national final was nothing short of a masterclass in skill, resilience, and artistry.
B-Girl Funky Child
For B-Girl Courtnaé, her win was a hard-fought triumph in a rematch that’s quickly becoming one of the fiercest rivalries in local breaking. In a repeat of the 2024 final, she went head-to-head once again with B-Girl Keisha, the 2023 champion known for her musicality and footwork finesse. Both breakers pushed the limits of creativity and stamina, but it in the end it was Courtnaé’s experience, and performance precision that earned her the win. This was her second national title on the trot and third in total after also winning in 2021.
B-Girl Courtnaé Paul
“I was super excited and a bit shocked,” said Courtnaé. “Keisha is a tough competitor, and every time we battle, it brings out the best in both of us. Getting this win made all the training worth it. Shout out to Red Bull for such an amazing and premium competition, and for putting us SA breakers on a world stage.”

In the B-Boy division, Toufeeq once again stamped his dominance, claiming his third consecutive national title by defeating another OG breaker, B-Boy Jandre, in a high-octane final that brought the house down. Known for his seamless transitions and competitive composure, Toufeeq showed why he is the best of the best.

“This win means everything,” said Toufeeq. “I haven’t had the best two years, and this victory is a reminder that staying consistent always pays off. I'm honoured to represent South Africa again on the world stage, this time in Tokyo. I just want to soak in the culture, learn and represent my crew and country to the fullest.”
B-Girl Keisha
B-Boy Jandre, his final opponent, is no stranger to the BC One floor. Known for his sharp control and unique rhythm, Jandre brought style and strategy to every round, making Toufeeq earn every inch of the win. Their final was a clash of power versus polish, and one of the most talked-about battles of the night.
B-Boy Swae V
The 2025 edition of Red Bull BC One South Africa was a celebration of the highest calibre of breaking talent in the country. The expansion of the B-Girl category to a Top 8 format showcased the depth of female talent across the nation, while the return of multiple past champions raised the bar to unprecedented levels.

As both Courtnaé and Toufeeq prepare for the Red Bull BC One World Final in Tokyo, they carry with them not only their own dreams but the hopes of the South African breaking community. They’ve already proven themselves here. Now, it’s time to take on the world.
