"Shawndrick D. Hallman performs head spins without using his hands, but power moves aside, his mastery and control are marvelous."
- New York Times 06/14/13 about "?Culture"

Shawn Hallman better known as Iron Monkey and Shawn Supreme is a lbreakdancer from the legendary Renegades Crew. He has earned his reputation as a legendary bboy/ master performer and is sought after for his artistic talents world-wide. Originally from Alabama, Iron Monkey has been a mainstay in the breaking scene for the past two decades. Currently living in Taiwan he is competing, judging and teaching workshops all over Asia.

Iron Monkey was first introduced to breaking at his San Diego Junior High School in 1992, where he was captivated by a performance from legendary West Coast bboys Barmack and Bboy Ivan. Under their teaching and guidance, Iron Monkey quickly progressed to become one of the most greatest bboys of all time. He soon became a member of the famous Rock Force Crew, started traveling the world and won many of the top international Bboy Battles. As an innovator of power moves Iron Monkey is known for his speed, agility and swift dynamic style.

In 2004 Iron Monkey suffered a retinal detachment and almost lost his left eye. Ignoring the doctors advice not to dance he ended up having another detachment and was not able to leave the bed for nine month. After this his first trip was straight to the club across the street where he started to slowly move again. It took him a while to get back on it but there was never any doubt that he would. Never getting tired and nothing stoping him he is still dancing like never before – now at a age of 37.

He won Battle of the Year, Rock Force VS the Family, Bboy Masters Pro AM and Freestyle Sessions to name a few, toured with legendary Hip Hop pioneers such as KRS-1 and Kurtis Blow and was a member of the infamous Tribal Bboy Team. In 2006 Iron Monkey was selected to participate in Red Bull BC1 Beat Riders Camp. Besides battling, judging and teaching Master Classes and Workshops all over the world he is performing in theatre plays, circus shows and does industry work – commercials for products like the Ipod Nano, dancing for named brands like Nike, Men's wearhouse and several sports teams like the SF Warriors.
