Power move Power moves are moves loosely defined as relying on speed, momentum, and acrobatic elements for performance. They are prominent in B-boying, often the centerpieces of routines featuring the other elements (toprock, downrock, and freezes) that make up breaking. Also, power moves is near to gymnastics more than dancing. B-boys who focus heavily on power moves and execute them as a main part of their routines are often called "power heads".
