Solstice at Cellspace

Bay Area Hoopers moved indoors today for our first hoop event at Cellspace and it totally ruled to be hooping with new and old friends. About a dozen hoopers showed up for the first event of the rainy season that Vera put together. The space couldn't be any more perfect really. Amazingly high ceilings for hoop tossing. Lazy sofas to take breaks on, and it's great to take our community building project into a truly community building space. Chloe from New Orleans, who will be joining the hooping.org contributors next year, was in town for the holidays. Soleil made her first appearance. There are more photos in the Bay Area Hoopers gallery. It was the perfect way to spend Winter Solstice. We'll be doing it next weekend on Saturday from 2 to 4. Hope to see you there.

I'm so glad you guys found an inside space! While outside is more fun, inside seems to be a bit more community building, somehow...people are less likely to just wander in and out. You come to hoop, and you stay to hoop. HURRAH! (Also great to see that Soleil, from hooping.tribe.net made it to meet y'all!)

Yes, Ariel, thank you for giving Soleil all the info she needed to come!

Track of the Week

Our two tracks for the week start off with Cosmic Cowboys and their new release "One Last Whisper." We're especially loving the Hiro Remix which is why we've added it to the Hoop Sounds iPod below. Check it out and other mixes and download yours on iTunes by clicking:

Next we cool things down with a track for some dreamier hooping. The track is called "Ruby" from the new release from Ali Farka Touré & Toumani Diabaté of Mali. We think you're going to like it. Give it a listen on the iPod and get your copy on iTunes by clicking:
