BBC Radio 4 Spins The Hoop
BBC Radio 4 aired a new program called "Y'know For Kids" that was all about the hoop. Janet Ellis spends time on the episode exploring hooping history and takes a look at "how a new generation is using the hoop as a tool for promoting physical and spiritual well being." Two time 2008 Hoopies nominee Sharna Rose is featured on the program. She told Hooping.org, "There's a lot of info about the Whammo thingy, and this seems quite poignant in relation to the sad loss of Richard Knerr."
