    When I was a child I had a hoop, but for years and years I lived without it.
    I always think to hoop movement… it goes round and round and round… I go crazy!!!
    Hoop makes me feel special and free, and when life is difficult, it cheeres me up.
    The best day of last summer is when I made some hoops, I took them to a feast and I saw children to play and dance with my hoops. It was magic.
    Now I know that I can’t live without my hoop. I’m very happy to can say that I’m a hooper. It’s very important for me.

    I’m a musician of..um…lets see, started at 14…am now 42….ages, teach guitar for a living and only started hooping four weeks ago but am finding it the most amazing thing I have taken up in years, it centers and calms me in spots where my guitar CAN’T reach, my hoop (soon to be hoops) is my soul’s balm and now compliments my music.
    Anxiety attacks and The Blues DO melt away as I spin…I am new to this but AM saying; “where have you been all my life”
