Jason Yip

Originally from Hong Kong, I began my formal training at the London Contemporary Dance School before joining VERVE, the postgraduate performance company at the Northern School of Contemporary Dance. As part of VERVE’s 2023 cohort, I toured internationally, performing new creations by Jamaal Burkmar, KOR’SIA, and Faye Tan.

Since graduating, I have worked as a freelance artist with the Korean National Contemporary Dance Company, collaborating closely with artistic director Sung Yong Kim on the creations INIT and INIT-unseen. Additionally, I have joined KOR’SIA on their ongoing tour of Mont Ventoux.

As a choreographer, I am currently supported by Swindon Dance through their Young Professional Programme, which has been instrumental in my artistic growth. My work has been presented at Swindon Dance and East London Dance in collaboration with Company Jinx. I was also a commissioned artist at the Digital Body Festival, curated by Alexander Whitley Dance Company.
