I acknowledge the Yuin people, the Traditional Custodians of Djiringanj Country in the Yuin Nation the land on which I work. I pay my respects to Elders past, present and emerging. I extend that respect to Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and Indigenous peoples everywhere.

Since then the foundation of her focus has shifted seeded by her interest in the archaeology of place and the invocation of remnants, body perception and memory. An influential regional dance artist and choreographer, Lee's practice involves site-specific immersive dance; a series of events set in site-specific locations favouring engagement and intimacy over spectacle..
Lee's dance and choreographic practice has evolved through her interest in education and human movement.Her current practice includes alternative movement systems and yoga therapy. She offers classes in movement that support the body, mind and ageing process.
