Lee is retired from the U.S. Coast Guard having served as a Health Promotion Coordinator where he experienced his first yoga class. He has always enjoyed health sciences and fitness including various outdoor activities such as running, bicycling, and kayaking. He returned to a regular practice of yoga after traditional rehabilitation failed to produce results following a skiing accident in 2016. Lee is a graduate of 200-hour teacher training at Zenya Yoga Academy and 300-hour teacher training at Swami Satchidananda Ashram – Yogaville, and has specialized teacher training in meditation, restorative, adaptive/chair, and trauma sensitive. He is currently enrolled in the Integral Yoga Therapy program. He is also a registered EMT, and certified first aid and CPR instructor. He completed his BBA at Averett University (Danville, VA) and MAEd at Argosy University (Honolulu, HI). His yoga journey is representative of a passage from Yoga Vasistha, “Who am I who speaks, walks, stands, and functions on this elaborate stage known as the world? I should find this out.”
