She came to ITI to further her understanding of the origins of theatre and to become acquainted with her body as an instrument for creation. To this end, she continues to pursue training in movement forms outside of those taught at ITI, including Odissi at Chowk and Taiji.

Jin Yi plans to expand her interest in theatre-making by pursuing avenues of playwriting and directing in addition to performing. She aims to create work that reflects the complexities of the human condition.
