About Jan-Ming:
I create and facilitate interactive experiences through dance, music, and somatic education, focusing on empathy and communication in a world of social and cultural differences. My work is situated in the spaces in-between things, in the movements of transition and translation between different known worlds.

I have been dancing contact improvisation for over 15 years and am passionate about the exquisitely powerful and completely ordinary practice that it can be to collectively bring us into a dancing conversation together, respecting our differences through curiosity, courage and care.
