CONcept

​Ye starts to reconnect with his original culture roots both as choreographer and composer.In Chinese, Chi 气 means air and energy, and it is essential for life and breath. In traditional martial‑arts training, our body is the container and channel to conduct the Chi through movements.

​

The idea of blending aspects between cultures was the main drive for his music. Alongside the pulse of traditional Chinese percussion, he layers the meditative guqin (古琴, one of the most ancient instruments from China since 1st millennium BC ), the breathy dongxiao (洞箫), and the resonant Tibetan singing bowl (西藏钵). Choral voices and orchestral colours connect the flow, creating fluid exchanges between Eastern and Western traditions.

​

After eight years of dancing and choreographing across Europe, Ye is turning back to his earliest discipline: the martial‑arts training he received from his father. In the 1990s Ye’s father taught Tai Chi in Japan; before retiring he served as a national wushu judge and full‑time Tai Chi instructor in China. That legacy of precision, balance, and inner focus now anchors Ye’s choreographic and musical language.
