In addition, she is also an accomplished makeup artist and seamstress, and aided other performers in enhancing their own appearance.

Yoga Fusion Teacher Extraordinaire!
-
Jan 2010 - Mar 2020
Laurie Miller R.Y.T. Laurie has been practicing and studying Yoga since the age of 13. Born and raised in Miami Florida she found her first teacher and spiritual mother, Swami Niranda Devi ... Also known as Edith Epstein. “I fell in love and felt an innate connection with Niranda and this ancient practice. We studied Eastern Philosophies, Reflexology, Shiatsu, Regression, Nutrition, Meditation and so much more! At 18 I got my first certification to teach Hatha Yoga and was given my spiritual name of Krishna Devi. After years of traveling the world as an entertainer I’ve had the opportunity to study so many different practices and share my knowledge of Yoga with the many singers and dancers that I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with.” Laurie has combined all her practices into one... YOGA FUSION... a deep core, mind body workout combining Hatha, Ashtanga, Kundalini, Power, Pilates, Vinyasa, Tai Chi, Budokan and your own natural instinct to move to music with a deep guided savasana and light body work to let you experience your full potential to heal. An exhilarating, fun and intense practice for all levels. “Teaching YOGA FUSION has been a lifelong ambition and one of the most fulfilling things that I am so fortunate to be able to share and do...” https://www.yogaalliance.org/TeacherProfile Show less

1980 - 2014
Laurie Miller is a talented and versatile performer who held the audience in the palm of her hand as she belted a standard or soothed every inch of emotion from a lyric. Attractive and shapely in a sparkling black pants outfit, she matched the mood of her renditions with personally designed and decorated accoutrements from scarves to flouncy wrist cuffs to flowing, swirling coats. She sang with power and finesse as she moved gracefully around the stage, talking casually to the audience between numbers. Her professionalism was apparent as she synchronized on occasion with a screen showing her from childhood through her early years on stage, which added an interesting dimension to her performance. She was clever and exceptionally good at her impersonations of Liza Minnelli, Cher and Barbra Streisand, eliciting their inimitable sounds and gestures with just enough exaggeration to make them both thoroughly recognizable and fun. When she moved into a casual second act with pianist Michael Chapman, both sang and enjoyed playing with their music as much as the appreciative audience enjoyed their comfortable, immense talents.
