  We did some hooping at Center Stage Studios on November 29th. KPTV interviewed me about hooping during a hoop jam and put this nice package together that aired on December 7th.

  Watch it here!

  Come for a day side hoop jam and be seen on TV!

  Center Space Studio
  420 SE 6th Avenue – PDX
  10am – 12noon
  Fee: $5

  Local TV station, KPTV Fox 12, is sending a reporter and photographer to shoot a segment for their show, MORE Good Day Oregon, which airs weekdays at 9am on Channel 12. They will be at the hoop jam from 10:30am until 11:00am or so but I thought it would be fun to make it a 2-hour hoop jam (10am-12pm) for the heck of it.

  If you do not want to be on camera, you can step out of the room for the taping and step back in when they are done. The segment will air on Wednesday, December 7th.

• 11.11.11 Happy World Hoop Day!

  Date: 2011.11.11 | Category: Hooping Hub | Response: 0

  Today is World Hoop Day!
  If you’re in Portland, OR come over to the Center Space Studio, 420 SE 6th Ave. tonight. Come anytime between 7:30pm & 10:30pm.  It’s a small space but hoopers are polite and share space well.

  We are asking for a minimum $5 donation to raise funds for World Hoop Day. WHD’s mission is to bring joy through the importance of play to children around the world. Our goal is to raise $500.

  Please bring your happy hooping selves, hoops and munchies to share and your iPods with your favorite hoop jam mixes! This is also Veteran’s Day. Please read this wonderful message from World Hoop Day Founder, Annie O’Keeffe.

  I’ll be interviewing random hoopers for Episode 2 of HulaHoopla: A Podcast for Hoopers.
  Join in the festivities and meet local hoopers.

  We got together at our first night side weekly hoop jam at the Bamboo Grove Salon (we are looking for a new space for this time slot, btw!) and rehearsed and performed the official World Hoop Day Dance!  Thank you to Laurie, Kundalini, Fawn, Shelly and Kay for playing and to Renee for shooting the video.  I hope I spelled everybody’s name correctly!
  We’ll repeat the rehearsal, performance and recording at Center Space, 420 SE 6th Ave., PDX during our World Hoop Day fund raiser hoop jam on 11.11.11 starting at 7:30pm.
  Happy Hooping!

• We’re Cuckoo for Coco Hoops!

  Date: 2011.01.11 | Category: Hooping Hub, HulaHoopla | Response: 0

  Hoopnotica is running a campaign to have a Hoop Off between Jay Leno and Conan O’Brien. Who know? It could happen!   You can check out the HOOP OFF – Leno vs. Conan on Facebook.  Lots of fun posts from other hoopers.  I rallied of few of my hooper gal pals and came up with a slogan and campaign sign.

  Hmmm….I can’t upload the sign at the moment but you can find it on the HulaHoopla Facebook Fan Page.  Not a fan????  Well, what are you waiting for?

  We took some pictures and made a fun little video to assist in the campaign. Check it out!
  And please share it with your friends.  Thank you!  BTW, I am “Bad Kitty” in this video, the last hooper.  That is my hoop troupe performer name. Meow!

  I’m slowly adding links to this blog because I want to support the hooping community.  If you’re a hooper and your site isn’t on here…give it time, I’ll get there!
