Rachel Yee grew up in Markham, Ontario, and danced competitively for six years. At her home studio, she trained in a variety of styles, with jazz and acro being her favourites. Beginning dance later than many of her peers strengthened her commitment to the art, as she became deeply involved and demonstrated strong determination early on.

She currently attends Brock University in the Primary/Junior concurrent education program and is grateful to continue dancing throughout university as a member of Edge Dance Team, a varsity competitive team at Brock.

Rachel swam competitively before discovering her love for dance and now uses that passion to teach swimming. She additionally loves all things music and enjoys crafting in her free time.
