Daniel Ching
Daniel Ching began his formal dance training at the age of seventeen at the Mid-Pacific School of the Arts in Honolulu, Hawaii. He continued his dance studies at the University of Hawaii at Manoa, San Francisco Conservatory of Dance, and Pomona College, before transferring to The Juilliard School in New York City. He has performed works by Ohad Naharin, Merce Cunningham, Twyla Tharp, and Murray Louis, and has had the privilege of working with choreographers such as Kyle Abraham, Brian Brooks, Kate Weare, Camille Brown, Alex Ketley, and Zoe Scofield, among others. During his third and fourth years at Juilliard, Daniel had the privilege of performing as a guest company member with the Brian Brooks' Moving Company, performing at NY City Center's Fall for Dance, the Joyce Theater, and the Chicago Dance Festival. While at Juilliard, Daniel has also served as a guest performer for Francois Perron's French Academie of Ballet and Nadege Hottier's Premiere Division Ballet in New York City.
