@Felthry The others gave you the answer before, but yeah Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo. The Electric Boogaloo is a dance, and the movie is about some dancers trying to raise money to save and improve a community centre.

I'm not sure if it's the origin of that story/trope, the 'save the community centre' thing, but they did it pretty well. It's actually not a bad movie!
