About me

           My name is Russell Lee and I am Asian. My parents moved from the Philippines to Canada about 20 years ago and I was born in 1995. I have two siblings, an older brother and an older sister. I am the youngest out of my family of five but not the youngest out of the family tree. I have over one hundred cousins, aunts, and uncles that I am related to by blood and still growing. I moved from Oliver to Penticton in the year of 2000 and started my life as an Asian immigrant. My first language that I was taught was English and was unable to pick up my ethnic language, Tagalog. Over the year that I grew in Canada I have come to realise that I have a love for dancing. My main style that I trained in is breaking a.k.a. Bboying. I have taken dance classes that relate to hip hip such as popping, locking, bboying, newstyle hip hop and more. I have taken other styles that would help my mind expand in the dance community such as ballet and contemporary. A few years back my friend and I met other dancers and began to session with them on the streets a.k.a. busking. We loved each others energy and different styles so much we all decided to keep growing together and form a crew. To this day my dance crew and I have traveled around vancouver and the Okanagon competing as well as doing gigs for weddings or for fundraisers. This year will be the last year that the "Dream High Crew" will be together before we all split going our separate ways in the dance world. My friend and I will be moving  to Vancouver training even harder in a dance company in mid August of 2013. This was a short short summary of my life.
