Alberta Hoopers


Hello Alberta Hoopers!

Here is a space to connect with hoopers closer to home. Feel free to chat about the ridiculously high brokerage fees we have to pay when we order from identi-tape or the prairie landscape of our province. Anything goes! If you create an event in the events sections, be sure to link it to this group by creating a discussion on the event.

Much love,
SaFire

Calgary Hoopers in winter?

I'm wondering if there is a group meeting somewhere out of the cold wintery snow. Because at the moment I have no where to practice and that makes me sad.

Hey Ladies- I will be visiting your area (Canmore) Feb 10-13th. I was wondering if you were meeting up at all or if there were any classes or lessons in the area. My hubbie will be ice-climbing and I will hopefully be hiking soaking and hooping! I welcome suggestions for places to eat, stay visit etc toooo!!!

Hi Kirsten! The Bow River Flow is happening this Sunday, August 21st. I will be coming down with a bunch of hoops and I'm putting the call out to all local hoopers to come down and hoop it up. I will be set up near the Bassbus on Memorial Drive, so there will be good tunes all day. The location is easily accessed by transit too. Here is the website for the Bow River Flow, www.bowriverflow.ca, and for Bassbus, www.bassbus.ca. Every other Sunday local hoopers and prop manipulators usually meet up at Prince's Island Park in the afternoon. Hope to see you there!

a way out of the hoop

Posted by Swizzy Ape 2 Comments

I'm stuck in a loop with the hula hoop. When I was a little girl I was abused in every which way. Often I was grounded to my bedroom, with two bathroom visits and a dinner release. In my bedroom held my boom box. Loud music would draw my angry step father towards my room. But I had to dance, so from a young age I would take a few preventable beatings so I could dance in my bedroom. Pretending I'm dancing on stage with Brain Setzer, I had trained myself to ingore reality while I dance. Even…

for the love of hoopers......

I haven't posted for a very long time, but I have something worth sharing.  In the last couple of years, I have advanced enough to start teaching and I absolutley love my classes.  All my students are wonderful its the most favorite part of my week. Through a very unfortunate series of events, every hoop I own, including my hoops for students, were taken and no longer in my possession. I was so upset ,not for myself, but my students would have nothing to take class with. There…
