Behind the Scenes + Made to Flex: Dassy Lee

Dassy Lee knows the importance of no opportunity wasted. After falling in love with dance as a kid, she moved to the U.S at the age of 21 to pursue a future in the art, hoping to make this full-time passion into lifelong career.

“I’m originally from South Korea, and I moved to America because I didn’t want to be put into a box,” Dassy tells Timberland. “I want to be out of that box. Flexibility is the freedom to do what I want, which is living in a different country, meeting a lot of people, and learning how they think.”

Her style of dance is known as popping, which involves contracting your muscles to give the illusion of robotic-like movements. Powered by SensorFlex™ comfort system, Dassy performed with some serious sass in our Women’s Lakeville Chelsea boots.
