About Me (and the blog)
Hi- I'm Kayleigh. This blog started as a side project to being a professional orchestral musician and movement educator over the last 9 years. It's since grown beyond my wildest expectations, and I'm thrilled to be expanding it. I've interviewed some fantastic people in the field of musician health, written a plethora of blogs about anatomy, movement science, and more. Although I still play professionally in multiple ensembles in Seattle and beyond, I love sharing what I'm learning and the work that others are doing in this field of performing artist health. You can also find my new endeavors as a cohost on the Beyond the Practice Room Podcast. Here's my official bio blurb:
KAYLEIGH MILLER is a violist, educator, movement instructor, off and on writer, and total body nerd. As a violist, she has played in ensembles such as the National Arts Centre Orchestra, the New World Symphony, the Lucerne Festival Academy Orchestra, and is a new member of the Pacific Northwest Ballet Orchestra. She had the good fortune of studying with Carol Rodland at the New England Conservatory and Eastman School of Music, and continued her studies with Roger Tapping at the New England Conservatory. She has participated in numerous festivals, such as the Aspen Music Festival, Banff Masterclasses, International Masterclasses at Prussia Cove, Spoleto Festival USA, and Lucerne Festival Academy. She began her yoga practice in 2007, and along the way, has dabbled in raw foods, veganism, reiki, acupuncture, crossfit, and pilates. She currently teaches yoga, strength, kettlebells, pilates and additionally offers specialized classes and workshops oriented towards musicians. She is passionate about helping students to heal from injury and to change movement patterns to live a pain-free life. She lives and teaches in Seattle, WA, where she combines her loves for movement, music, and the outdoors.
