<div>Hi everyone,
</div>
<div>My name is Chieh-Hann “Jay” Chang, a contemporary dancer and creator from Taiwan.
</div>
<div>After years of performing across Europe and Asia — from the Hofesh Shechter Company in the UK, to the Korea National Contemporary Dance Company, to theatres in Paris, Copenhagen, and Lyon — I’ve made a brave decision:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I moved to London to rebuild my life and to grow roots as an Asian artist.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>London is one of the best places in the world for contemporary dance.
</div>
<div>It is also a place where diversity, identity, and artistic voices collide and reshape each other.
</div>
<div>Coming here is not just about my career — it is a step toward building a true artistic home, one I can share with the world.
</div>
<div><br />

<div>Why I’m Asking for Your Support
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Moving to London as a freelance artist is exciting, but also very challenging.
</div>
<div>As an Asian dancer working abroad, I face:
</div>
<div>•	High living costs in London
</div>
<div>•	Studio rental fees for my creation &amp; training
</div>
<div>•	Visa-related expenses
</div>
<div>•	Transportation for auditions, rehearsals, and performances
</div>
<div>•	Costs to film my choreography &amp; build my portfolio
</div>
<div>•	Basic living expenses during periods with no guaranteed income
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your support will allow me to survive, create, and collaborate — instead of just struggling to stay afloat.
</div>
<div><br />

</div>
<div>Why This Journey Matters
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>There are not many Taiwanese or Asian contemporary dancers represented in the UK scene.
</div>
<div>By establishing myself in London, I hope to:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>✔ Bring Asian perspectives into UK contemporary dance
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>✔ Collaborate with local artists to create new cross-cultural works
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>✔ Share Taiwanese movement, values, and identity on global stages
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>✔ Build workshops &amp; community projects connecting Asia and Europe
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>✔ Inspire younger Asian artists who dream of performing abroad
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your contribution is not just helping me —
</div>
<div>It helps an Asian artistic voice be seen and heard in a global dance community.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why Your Help Matters
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every donation, whether £5 or £500, helps me stay in the city where I can grow, create, and share my work.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you can’t donate, sharing this page already means the world to me.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for believing in this journey.
</div>
<div>Thank you for helping an Asian artist build a home in London.
</div>
<div>I hope to one day invite you to see my work on stage.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>— Jay
