In a rut
Posted on April 20, 2010 at 10:02pm 3 Comments 0 Likes
I have been hooping for a while now, I guess @ 2 years or so.....I feel like I'm stuck in a rut. Like I do the same tricks over and over....I really just need to sit and get some new tricks in my head and then go out and DO them.....lacking in the motivation territory, maybe festie season will help!

okay, so i know this should go in the teachers section as a post but i need help in the next few hours. taught my first beginner level class last sunday and it was....eh, it was okay. there were only 3 people,i was nervous and I felt very unprepared. this week i thought would be better because i would have a little more knowledge of my students and it would just work out better....turns out, yeah, i got to know my students a lil better but there will be 2 more than last week today because they…

okay, so my goal for my hoop jams in the future has altered slightly.....this morning I was looking in the mirror and went to go bend down....only now do i realize how much different(and by different i mean better) my right side ab area looks than my left....i assume that this stems from the fact i have only been spinning for the last year and a half as a left current hooper(i think my interpretation of this is correct). I CAN hoop to the right it is definitely more difficult though. I also…

Soooooo...the demo was bright and early this morning and I went, sick and all(and was 20 min. early **gold star for me**). I sounded so horrible that the gym director actually asked me if i still wanted to do it. HA , of course!!!! I didnt feel that dropping the ball right now would be good for my future with hooping, and teaching classes and growing my own community of lovelies here in NOLA...hoopers that is. It was FREEZING (well, for here in the south) and we were doing the demo outside…

okay, so i have my demo tomorrow at freakin 9 am, i am sick as hell and its only getting worse, i havent been able to practice myself for the last week because of HORRIBLE weather and NO inside room. I was going to make a CD of my fav songs to hoop to just so that i have some good tunes going even if we arent hooping the whole time (and now i have to use Itunes which i def dont understand and neither does my roomie whose computer the mac is). I thought that i had down pretty much what i wanted…

Anastazia la Luminaire said… - I read your blog posts and they reflected a lot of the way I've been feeling. I just started teaching a very small class and I'm getting ready to approach some of the local gyms about doing some more.
I don't make it to new orleans often, but I would love to get over there to meet some of you. As far as I know, there are only three of us in BR (though I'm working on that!) and I very rarely see the others.
Is there a NO hoop jam?

The song is called Knife Play, I also suggest getting No Names. Both free. Both awesome. :) And thanks for the awesome comments. I got my smiles for the day. <3

- I am coming over to New Orleans for Mardi Gras! Would love to come and Hoop Nola with you.. We came over Halloween and Hooped around Jackson Square and the French Quarter. Lol Just carried our Hoop's around, and random people would stop us "Do you use those?" Was alot of fun stopping and hooping for them. One Lady chased us down to give us a tip..
But any time you are close to Gulf Shore's let me know. And we will Hoop!
