You might say the thoughts have been revolving in my mind non-stop... this thing that I'm doing, making hoops, teaching people, (hopefully) inspiring them... it's got to be something more. It's not just a hobby, it's a passion. It's calling to my heart of hearts stronger than anything has before, but what do I call this "thing".

Tonight after some free writing it occured to me...

(R)evolved Hoops - Live. Love. (R)evolve.

* I have to figure out the details, but that will be trademarked (at least unofficially for now)

It makes so much sense in so many ways. My love for hooping was discovered when I met and fell in love with my local burner community and decided to go to Burning Man for the very first time. 2009. Evolution.

My playa cards all said "Live. Love. Evolve."

Definitions of Revolve include:

  1. To orbit a central point.
  2. To turn on an axis; rotate. See synonyms at turn.
  3. To recur in cycles or at periodic intervals.
  4. To be held in the mind and considered in turn.
  5. To be centered:

Yes... they are all perfect.

My first draft mission for (R)evolved Hoops is:

"To inspire individual, community, and global (R)evolution of the mind, body and spirit through the empowering, expressive and playful flow of the hoop."

It's all coming together. I think I might be able to sleep now.

Congratulations. I can feel the excitement in your post. That's exciting.

If you haven't already, I'd recommend checking out the name register on Hooping.org. They made it to help prevent people from choosing hoop names and business names that were already being used by other people. I know there is already a Revolva and I think maybe a Revolver too and there may be others. If there are, it's best to find out now. I've seen some struggles with people who didn't check that list first so before you get too far down this road, it's important to check. And if this is the name you're going to use, it's important to list yours there also so no one else grabs it!

Best of luck with your new venture. (And I hope you got some sleep!)
