(Hawaii, United States)

Eddie, born in Hawaii, performed with Ultima Vez for nearly six years, having toured and performed primarily with What the Body Does not Remember and In Spite of Wishing and Wanting. He is currently working with Emmanuel Gat (since 2017) and touring TEN WORKS and STORY WATER.

He was a founding mover and continues as an Artistic Associate for company Black Label Movement. Eddie has had collaborative works presented at American Dance Festival 2014 (w/ Carl Flink) and Zürich Tanzt 2015 (w/ Rakesh Sukesh). He presented a solo in 2016 at P12 Space in Brussels and premiered a duet with Natalia Pieczuro at Dag van de Dans 2017. In February 2018, Eddie was part of The Guest Project in Thessaloniki in co-creation of a new trio.
Eddie is also teaching extensively the practice he continues to research and develop, Animal Mindfulness. After an injury in late 2014, Oroyan began a practice of meditation and observation. Animal Mindfulness came through his search for balance. His performing and studies have long included animal reflex training and proper response, but his new practice has and continues to teach him curiosity and awareness of the more subtle and delicate, the empathetic. After returning to performing and teaching, Oroyan is moved to explore and share these discoveries through the stage and classroom. More recently, with Jessica Eirado Enes, he has been developing an empathic partnering class they are calling OUIJA.
