About Us

Phoenix Dance Troupe is an Yale's only traditional Asian dance troupe. We are non-audition and entirely student-run, with dances choreographed and led by members of the group.

Over the years, Phoenix has performed at various events on campus and in the neighborhood community. Through its performances, the group hopes to spread both artistic and cultural awareness to both its members and its audiences.

Our dancers come together from a variety of backgrounds to celebrate rich and diverse dance traditions from different regions across Asia. Our repertoire spans widely across time and space, including Chinese handkerchief dances, modern ribbon dances, and much, much more.

We welcome both male and female dancers of all ethnic backgrounds - no previous experience necessary!
