Tyrique Cheng

I am a 5 foot 9 inch half black half chinese mix and was born in Seattle Washington, and am now currently a member of Donald Byrd's Spectrum dance theater touring the US...... A former MOMIX dancer I had the opportunity to tour all over Japan, China, Taiwan, Australia, Thailand, New Zealand, Spain, Italy and Russia. I live to dance and dance to live, AWWWW.... Oh and yeah I grew up in ORY GONE Oregon YAY. Shout out to the Jefferson Dancers. I can't wait to be rich and famous, but mostly just being happy is nice even if being rich and famous never happens. I am very generous, very kind and open minded, willing to try most anything, and I love the whole world. Other than dance I have studied music and have played the saxophone for 10 years. My third passion is writing and have been working on a book about my crazy life story and my dancing journey. I also would love to go back to school and get a degree, I love learning and soaking up new information, it is such a great experience in not knowing. I have grown to find out that the older I get the more I realized how little I knew about myself, others, and just life in general. Always finding new things to do and tackle, and meeting new people all over the world is one of my greatest hobbies. Much love to all the people that I grew up with, my family, my friends, my teachers and the all the people who judged me and didn't really get to know who I really am. I want to thank God for all the things that he has provided me with, and all the things that he hasn't. I really want to make a difference in people's lives all over the nation and share my gift of dance to the whole world, one country, one city at a time.
