Logan Edra's journey to securing a spot on the U.S. breaking team for the Olympics was longer than anticipated. The 21-year-old Filipina American only officially qualified for the Paris Games last month, despite being one of the world's top breakers.

Breaking, set to debut as an Olympic sport, is full of pressure and excitement for Edra and her teammates. Known as b-girl Logistx, Edra focuses on staying grounded while navigating global competition.

Representing the birthplace of breaking, Team USA faces top contenders from around the world. With breaking's Olympic debut, Edra and her team hope to bring more respect and resources to the sport back home.
