Meet Lee!!
How did you get into yoga?
✨ I got into yoga in 2017 through a trainer who unbeknownst to me was a yogi! I studied and practiced with him most mornings at sunrise for a couple years. This solidified my love for yoga and it has been a huge part of my wellness journey ever since and will always be a large part of me.
What’s been one of the most gratifying moments of your yoga journey?
✨I love yoga retreats! It has become my favorite way to travel, I have been on six so far (and counting). It is a perfect way to experience a part of our beautiful world, continue on the path of self discovery and physical alignment, and bond in new settings, doing fun things with others — building community.
What is your favorite yoga pose?
✨ My favorite yoga poses are Warrior II and Upward Facing Dog
What can students expect from your classes?
✨My class is an accessible, all-level flow with moderate pacing. We build strength through some stillness, but also build a heat that releases tension. Intentional and uplifting music accompanies the flow and at times there is a theme focused on self-motivation, mental clarity, and self discovery.
What can we find you doing outside of the yoga studio? ✨I’m the Assistant Director of Advancement at Cristo Rey Philadelphia, a private Catholic school for students of all faiths. Professionally I am most passionate about education and equity. I grew up in the Chicago area, but have been in Philadelphia since 2015 — so I am a big Philadelphia sports fan who still has some Chicago team allegiances. In my spare time I enjoy travel (especially yoga retreats!), writing (currently working on my first book), dancing, karaoke and adventuring with my hyperactive dog, a basenji named Iverson.
