Chuck-Hou Yee

Chuck-Hou (Chuck) stumbled onto West Coast Swing in 2011 and quickly fell in love with its playful partnering and freedom of expression. While he has achieved competitive success in the Advanced division, Chuck’s true passion lies in the artistry and connection of dance. His background in classical piano has enhanced his understanding of musical structure, and he continues to train in various dance genres including ballet, jazz, and street styles.

As a dance teacher, Chuck brings a thoughtful and holistic approach to his instruction. He focuses on elevating dancers’ bodily awareness, integrating movement throughout the entire body, and emphasizing each individual’s strengths. Chuck believes that dance mirrors life, and that the challenges we face on the dance floor often reflect our personal growth journey. With gratitude for those who have encouraged him along the way, Chuck looks forward to sharing his knowledge and working with dancers to help them unlock their full potential.
