Lee Purdie has studied, taught, and performed different styles of Dance throughout her life and has been a dedicated practitioner of Yoga for thirty years. Following completion of a Yoga Arts Teacher Training over twenty years ago, her dream of blending both passions of yoga and dance came to fruition in 2003

Lee trained as a primary teacher and later co-founded Bright Lights Performance School with Brian Dale in 2004.  They have just celebrated their 20 year anniversary. Lee was able to use her teaching skills and experience as well as her love of Dance to create musical productions with children of all ages.  Her love of teaching children and Yoga steered her towards completing the full array of Zenergy Childrens Yoga teacher trainings founded by the inspiring Loraine Rushton and she is also a qualified Children Yoga Teacher.

After completing a Yoga Teacher Training through Yoga Arts, Lee commenced her Yogadance journey teaching weekly classes in Byron Bay and surrounds and performing extended YD routines at the Big Feet, Little Feet productions which showcased different forms of movement and Dance.  Lee fortunately met Jessie Chapman, renowned Yoga teacher and founder of Radiance Retreats, who wanted to include YD classes on her Yoga retreats….18 years later Lee still works with Jessie as a facilitator and YD teacher.  Their journey together has also included performing YD routines at international spa conferences in Thailand and Singapore.
