Description
While JBL remains popular among old-school audio enthusiasts, younger generations do not see it as a brand for them. To change this perception, JBL turned to a seemingly outdated trend among young people: Japanese radio calisthenics, a form of gymnastic dance. By incorporating elements of breakdancing into the traditional moves, JBL introduced a whole new style called "Breaking Radio Calisthenics," an instant hit that quickly engaged millions of young people. JBL transformed an outdated and dull dance style into a hip contemporary trend and in doing so modernized its brand
