With our workshop at Leela Yoga Lifestyle just two weeks away, I’m delighted to introduce you to our !
Meet Assistant Flight Instructor Lacey Miller!!
Hello, everyone! My name is Lacey Miller, and I am a native of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I started my aerial journey in the end of 2014 with my first love, acro yoga, and believe it or not but this is actually how I met my husband! Then, two years later I had my first aerial silks class. Unfortunately, shortly after my first couple of classes, I injured my hand and hand a long recovery process. (Don’t worry, the injury was not related to anything aerial!) In 2017, I found my passion for aerial sling with the help of Jamie Ray. I started attending any and every class with Airseekers; I just could not get enough of it. I wanted to learn anything and everything I could. Airseekers helped shape who I am as an aerialist today, and I am proud to be a part of this team.
If I had to pick three strengths, I would say they would be…
1. Endurance. I have always led an active lifestyle which has helped me with my endurance in the air as well as helped prepare me for many different types of performances. I play competitive beach volleyball during the warm months, and for exercise I attend cardio kickboxing and boxing classes. I also have a background in weightlifting and have been lifting since 2017.
2. Knowledge. I have been an intensive care unit registered nurse for over 7 years, and I am actively pursuing my master’s degree to become an acute care nurse practitioner. My background on how the body works and moves really helps when learning the theory behind different aerial techniques.
3. Determination. Some people call me stubborn, but I consider my stubbornness to be determination. Once I set my mind on something, I will do anything to achieve my goals. Whether it is learning a new aerial move or striving for straight A’s in school, I attack all my goals head on and with full force.
Now that you’ve learned a little bit about me, I can’t wait to meet each and every one of you! I can’t wait to help you find your passion for the aerial arts. I guarantee that once you find it, you’ll never want to stop.
