Damon Honeycutt is a transdisciplinary artist whose work involves the cohesion of many traditions. He holds an MA in Conscious Evolution and Integral Studies from The Graduate Institute and a BFA from California Institute of the Arts in Music Composition and Cross Cultural Dance Studies.

Starting his martial training at the age of 11, he sought out and learned under teachers, masters and practitioners that would help him understand how to bring together the archaic and the contemporary. A grassroots martial arts practitioner and yogi and both disciple of Paulie Zink and long time student of Paul Grilley, Damon founded Temple of the Monkey & TaoistyogaNYC based upon their teachings. Damon has learned under many teachers but it is the way Paulie Zink and Paul Grilley taught Damon the arts that engender his loyalty to their methods.

As a freelance performing artist and composer Damon has worked with a diverse group of artist from many places around the globe. Damon is a founding member of Scapegoat Garden and has worked with Nai Ni Chen dance company, Mei Yin Ng, Beijing Opera company Yuan, I Nyoman Wenten and the Burat Wangi Gamelan, Oddfellows Playhouse, Pickle Shoes Dance,The Oregon Shakespeare Festival, Spectral Voices, Crescent Street Films and has been featured at martial art festivals, independent films, and the 79th Annual Academy Awards and The Oprah Winfrey Show with Pilobolus Dance Theater.

As a teacher, Damon uses his diverse range of skill and experience to teach each student as an individual in the art. With personal evolution through disciplined training, Damon mentors the student in the way rather than running them in a system. Damon molds the essential nature of the student so the art can work itself.
