Leisure activities are recognized as offering opportunities for personal development. However, few studies have examined how the aesthetic leisure activity of breakdancing serves as a meaningful pathway for young individuals’ personal growth amid the significant pressures they face within contemporary societies. Employing an interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) approach, this study explores the impact of breakdancing on personal growth via self-determination theory. Based on in-depth interviews with seven amateur B-boys in South Korea, the study indicates that breakdancing can foster a growth mindset amidst widespread societal challenges, promote a positive self-image and healthy lifestyle, and strengthen a sense of social community connection.
