Had a great time. I was a little overwhelmed at first- shy, new to hooping and not knowing more than a couple of people! Vending was really good for me as I was able to easily meet and talk with lots of people. The late nights were a little hard on me to as I am an early to bed early riser so I missed some of the action that happened after 11:30 (and oops after 7:30 Sunday night)
I hope all of you who want to come out can make the next one! Everyone was very friendly and happy, saw so much amazing hooping!
Oh and SaFire is soooo sweet! It was funny because at first I didn't recognize her- in her videos she appears sooo tall :) She was always so happy, full of energy, and always ready to help anyone with anything!
Here is a very nice detailed rendition at Shakti SunFire's blog:

Kiera, as a new hooper, do you feel you were still able to learn a lot from Hoop Convergence? I've been wondering what the learning curve is at events like that. With so many profoundly skilled hoopers in attendence, I was curious if the workshops and lessons were still accessable to beginning/intermediate hoopers?

Glad to hear you had a lovely time.
I'm not sure I would say I learned ALOT but that is my own fault for not taking notes and especially videos like I will next time! In some of the lessons I didn't have the prerequisites (wow did I spell that right LOL) to try but I am noting it down for future use! Some lessons I had already grasped the concept and some lessons I really learned new things so it was a mixture. I am really looking forward to getting together with some locals who were there and recalling and sharing what we learned!
But YES, overall lessons were very accessible for beg/intermediates!
Hope to meet you here next year!
Ditto here!!

I kept saying I would take notes at night.... HA!
awww i want to go next year. that would be such an experc im happy you went as a new time hooper im sure you l earned a lot
