Here's a fun challenge for us that can be done casually or made really challenging with more props or more dance flow. This time I challenge you to hoop while holding something in your hands and manipulating it at the same time. If you spin other props, try those, poi, staves, juggling balls, contact juggling balls, whatever you like. See how you can mix them together.

 

 

Oh no! You dropped a juggling ball?  

 

Can you pick it up without dropping the hoop?  i.e. Chi-ing the hoop up your body, reaching down and picking it up to get back into position. 

 

Do you have scarfs, boas or other playful things? Use your hoop to focus on core flow and use another prop to explore your hands and play with the space around and within your hoop.

I have a video, but YouTube isn't cooperating, so I'll have to try and upload again tonight after church.  I really want to respond to this challenge before March is only a distant memory... ;)

Finally got something I'm okay with posting:

 

 

I had fun with this one. :)

Ooh! (^__^ ) I like it!  It looks pretty tricky.
Thanks, Domini!  I'm still pretty hit-or-miss with the tricks, but I enjoyed leaning them. :)
