DuoBody Taipei

“DuoBody Taipei" was co-founded by Taiwanese choreographer and dancer Jane Wang and circus acrobat Yu-Yuan Lin . Since 2022, the duo has focused on "duet performance" as the core of their team’s creative direction, blending the physicality of "contact improvisation/contemporary dance" with the high-level techniques of "acrobatics duos." Their long-term goal is to explore the interplay of "softness overcoming hardness" in their physical expressions as a foundation for theatrical creations and to promote duo body movement classes. I n recent years, they have also collaborated with the Seoul International Dance Festival in Korea, the Yilan City Government, the Taipei Philharmonic Orchestra, the Dadaocheng International Arts Festival, the Department of Design at National Taipei University of Technology, the "Virtual-Real Project,”Agaru and other domestic and international art festivals, government entities, schools, and art groups.
