TYRONE EARL LRAÉ ROBINSON

Tyrone Earl Lraé Robinson started his professional choreographic career in 2010, working as the assistant choreographer at STEPS Youth Dance Company, assisting then artistic director Alice Lee Holland.

Since then Tyrone has gone on to have an extensive professional career as a dancer and choreographer working for companies and independent artists–nationally & internationally, both in the contemporary & commercial worlds.

Robinson has choreographed and presented works such as TCK (2014 collaboration with House of Zaya clothing), B.I.L.I.N.A.G.E.R.F.T.P.T.S.T (Prime Cuts 2016 season), KS Project (2016 City of Perth commission), [BIO]curious (Sydney Dance Company 2017 New Breeds Season), Consent (Proximity Festival 2017 season) Falling between Heaven and Earth (Co3 Youth ensemble 2018) MOVE MOVE MOVE (2021 Curator for the Blue Room Theatre season), and YOU ARE (OFF-base Dance’s premiere season).

He has also spent the last 14 years working as a teacher and lecturer of dance in a variety of dance styles, to ages ranging from 6 to 50+ years old. The majority of his time working as a teacher has been a senior staff member at K2 Dance Studios, where he has nurtured the skills and talents of young dancers, many of who have gone on to pursue careers in dance and the performing arts. 

In 2020, Tyrone returned to Australia after living in Japan, working as a dancer in the contemporary dance company Noism. He returned with a passion and a drive to continue to make work as a Perth based choreographic artist. 

As artistic director of OFF-base Dance his goal is to use this platform to present more culturally and creatively diverse dance work to the Australian audiences.
