Bay Area Hoopers First Anniversary

Bay Area Hoopers celebrated our first anniversary yesterday hooping up a storm in Dolores Park, the site where we began exactly a year ago. Given the fact that our skill level, as well as the size of our group, has improved since then we certainly attracted more attention. People in the park kept stopping by, trying out a hoop, wanting to know who this crazy group of hoopers were. As one of the founding type people I was really excited to see us still going at it a year later. It was great seeing some familiar faces return after an absence too. And as one of the founding type people I need to say what a joy the past year has been meeting hoopers from all over and creating a totally fun and very reliable hoop community in the Bay Area.

(If anyone is interested in finding out where and when we meet each week, be sure to join our email list.)

Congrats, BAH!
You guys look great. I love the rainbow holographic hoop!

Ah, I remember so fondly that first meeting of BAH...that was when the hooping.org idea first was birthed, right Philo?

  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:

Cosmic Cowboys - One Last Whisper EP - One Last Whisper

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:
