Let's take it slow, shall we? Baxter hooping at a Hoop Path class in Austin, Texas. Video by Laura Scarborough.

trick of the week



We've had requests for info on how to do a roll across your back, so this week we're revisiting an excellent tutorial by Caroleeena. She lives in Raleigh, North Carolina.



track of the week

kaskade: grandconsoul trainin: stop

Hoop music favorites Kaskade have released "The Grand (Mixed)" that kicks off with our track of the week - "Angel On My Shoulder (EDX's Belo Horizonte At Night Remix)" and has seventeen more tasty treats. It's in the listening station up top, but get your own on iTunes by clicking:

Kaskade & Tamra - The Grand (Mixed) - Angel On My Shoulder (EDX's Belo Horizonte At Night Remix)

And then we have my current favorite hooping track. I love it and it's called "Stop" by Consoul Trainin - specifically the Diego Donati Vs F&A Factor Club Mix. It's so good and it's in the listening station. Get yours on iTunes by clicking:

Solstice at Cellspace

bah 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!
