==Life==
His father was the Olympics gymnastics bronze medalist, Takashi Chinen.
He was taught jazz dance by his mother, Miki Chinen, from an early age. He has an older sister, Saya Chinen, which is 2 years older than him.
His name comes from Yuri Osawa, an announcer, whose name his mother liked, but is written with different characters; the yu is a character often used in girl’s names (侑 yū) and the ri is taken from a surname his mother thought common among Chinese gold medalist gymnasts (李 lǐ) (from an interview piece in Sports Hochi sold December 5, 2005).
He is good at acrobatics and jazz dance. His forte in acrobatics is the turn, which he often performs during songs.
