video of the day


This weekend I was privileged enough to meet Deanne of HoopLovers.com at Hoop Camp 2008. Here she is with the other Tokyo Hoop Stars enticing everyone in Japan to join the love revolution.

trick of the week


This week's hoop trick is a foot interception that comes to us from Crissy Gugler of Santa Clara, California. She notes, "Corby calls this the 'Beckham Catch', which I think sounds pretty nifty."

track of the week

thievery corporation: mandala

This week's hoop track is from the new release by Thievery Corporation and it's called "Mandala" from the new album "Radio Retaliation." Merriam-Webster defines "Mandala" as "a Hindu or Buddhist graphic symbol of the universe ; specifically : a circle enclosing a square with a deity on each side that is used chiefly as an aid to meditation." Featuring the stylings of Anoushka Shankar, I can't help but think they wrote this specifically for us to hoop to. Check it out in our Hoop Sounds listening station up top, and listen to and download the other tracks from the new album on iTunes by clicking:

A Combination Manuever


While it takes her a few attempts, and will likely challenge most of us in making many more, here's Sharna Rose demonstrating her latest trick, an impressive combination maneuver. She says, "I know that the hoop should roll down my extended arm first.. I'll get there eventually." With some practice maybe you will too.

Comments

Please could you tell me what the song is called and by whom that you dancing to on your combination manuever video, thank you

The music is a Del la Soul mix of "Three is the magic Number"

Sharna always has the most kick butt hoop tricks ever! It has been so fun watching her advance over the past year! Thanks for always raising the bar and inspiring us Sharna
