I am happy to say that even though I am still a beginner and still in the process of learning beginner/basic tricks I am getting used to the space that I have :) I now know my limitations and am able to concentrate better on moving along with the beat of music with my hoop without being super paranoid all the time about hitting things :) I have also come to realize that my basement along with the movement of some furniture can hold a lot of space for me to move around freely, with the exception of any overhead tricks of course, but if I am to do any lassoing or vortex practice I am now comfortable with doing that upstairs since the ceiling is up pretty high :)

Soo glad Fall is on it's way, practicing makes me sweat so easily and when the cooler weather comes I'll be doing it to keep me warm versus sweating, I hate sweating!

Pretending I'm dancing on stage with Brain Setzer, I had trained myself to ingore reality while I dance. Even…

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…
