Hoopiversary

Summer of 2006

Your First Time

I was in the backyard of a friend after a String Cheese show at Red Rocks. Their daughter taught me how to lift the hoop up from my waist and I was hooked. I moved to Kansas City shortly after for college and began teaching myself tricks from youtube and various other sources. After only 2 years of practice, I found myself performing on stage in front of 4, 000 people next to Kyle Hollingsworth at Camp Zoe. I am so grateful for the opportunities and experiences I have had as a hoop dancer. We are truly blessed.

How Often Do You Hoop?

A Few Times a Week

Groups & Troupes

Luna Breeze Performance Art, Kaivalya Hoop Dancers,

Favorite Hooping Location

Actually, at my gym or in the dance studio.

Fire?

The first time I spun a fire hoop was for a Kaivalya Hoop Dancers video shoot. I just jumped right into it and had a great time! I have been firehooping since 2006 or 07. Today I am mastering my double fire hooping skills.

Hoop Business

Luna Breeze Performance Art is my company. It isn’t strictly hoop oriented although the hoop is a central focus. It also encompasses modern dance, and soon aerial fabrics as well. LBPA also acts as a booking agent for other hoop dancers, jugglers, dancers, and circus performers.
