Rebecca Halls of Montreal writes of her experience at this weekend’s Hoop Convergence, “I am learning so much about hooping I can’t even begin to explain it all. Acro Hoop Yoga, Hoop Choreography, Flamenco Hoopdance…….. We had a fire jam last night and I had the honor of performing alongside some of this planet’s most stunning performers. Hoopers who had never spun fire also had the opportunity to spin. One of the most touching moments of the whole evening was when one woman went into the fire circle, her first time ever spinning a hoop on fire. She stood there holding the hoop looking absolutely petrified. She looked very hesitant to start spinning the hoop standing within the flames, just when she was about to give up everyone began cheering ‘spin it, spin it!’ Finally she took the hoop to the back of her waist and began spinning it and proceeded to totally rock out with the fire hoop around her waist. Her performance brought tears to my eyes. It was so beautiful.” Full post: IHOOPU
