Hudsucker Posse Hoops For Peace
In Bloomington, Indiana, Indiana University’s Daily Student reports Marsha Hamer shut her eyes and looked inside. She kneeled on the floor of Bloomington’s StoneBelt Gym and arched her back. A hula-hoop laying halo-like around her. She looked inside and found herself. Hamer is a dedicated member of the Bloomington Hudsucker Posse. On the outside, the Bloomington Hudsuckers spin hula hoops, but on the inside, they concentrate on inner peace. Some Hudsuckers have lost weight, others gained enlightenment, but all have gained a sense of community. Most Indiana residents find these hippie-dippy hula-hoopers out of the loop, but the flow of this simple circle helps members clear their mind and focus on peace. Yet, is that sacred? “I’m not religious, but I’m highly spiritual,” Hudsucker’s co-founder Paula Chambers said.

Yes Hudsucker Posse! Yes Paula! This is my hoop home & my hoop mom! Paula & I have been friends for many years & I’m so happy to see this here! I don’t live in Bloomington anymore, but Paula’s jam is where I started hooping a little over a year ago. Yay!
Helllo!
I am hoping to host a hoop-convention in Richmond, Indiana in mid-march to early april and am trying to see if there is interest in the area.
