  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!

  So I’ve decided to take a Burlesque class to improve my hoop performance.  It’s working! I’m having a blast and am interacting with my audience more.

  Why Burlesque? Well, at HoopCamp this past year, Valentina Unity did a workshop on Burlesque hooping.  Holy Crap! It was amazing! She was amazing!

  I looked into Burlesque classes and really wanted to go to Seattle and immerse myself in classes up there.  Luckily I found the Rose City School of Burlesque in town.  I was able to shift all my classes in January and open up Tuesday in February just in time to start taking classes.  Manifestation, big time!

  We’ve learned history, make-up, hair, dance moves, created our names and developed personas and I’ve been working on a removable and hoopable costume for weeks.  eeeeee!!!!   I haven’t even told my mom.  Not sure that I’m gonna. Hmmm….

  Next week I get to do a solo performance…watch our for Chica Vroom!!!

  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 recently met up with a few hoopers and our brains began to meld into one swirling, creative, intense idea machine.  Hoop troupe, hooping personas, costumes, routines, performances, a hooping/spinning collective in PDX…it just kept going!!!

  I’ve been scouring my brain for ideas on where to have a weekly spin jam for next to nothing, where I can teach my winter classes, how to tap into my creative energy and keep the joy of hooping in tact.

  Tapping into potential fire performance training too…it’s a bit twirly right now but it’s such a cool feeling.

  

  New Fire Fans!

  Holy smokes! Just got back from 10 days in San Francisco attending my HoopGirl Level 2 Teacher Training AND HoopGirl Performance Training.  It seems strange to be back at home and not walking to the studio every morning where I was surrounded by strong, supportive goddesses!  I feel a shift in myself…hard to explain…but this morning I am going to take my boyfriend to my studio and perform for him for his birthday. *prrrrrr*
