Yiyi (Fiona) Deng
Traditional Chinese Dance Artist & Choreographer

I bring Chinese classical and folk traditions to contemporary stages — using gesture, rhythm, and spatial design to share the stories I grew up with.

About Fiona Deng

Fiona Deng is a Chinese dance artist and choreographer who synthesizes community with performance.

 

As President of Lord Byng Chinese Dance Club, she expanded the group from a small circle of five dancers into a thriving team of 30+ by creating a rehearsal culture that made growth feel possible for everyone — beginners and experienced performers alike.

 

She choreographs with equal attention to technique and storytelling, integrating formations, prop work (such as fans and ribbons), and staging that only “click” when every dancer understands their role in the larger picture.

With a focus on showcasing the rich heritage and artistic expression of Chinese dance, Fiona Deng's portfolio stands out for its captivating performances and collaborative projects. The dancer's journey is a testament to dedication, cultural preservation, and artistic innovation.

"Dance is the poetry of the foot."
