Greetings hoopers and hoopers to be! I hoop that you will join me for a HoopDance intensive. Whatever your level I have a class for you!

Hoop Dance is the newest incarnation of an ancient art. The “hula” hoop of the 50’s was just a small hiccup in the long life of the hoop and by far the cheesiest! Thankfully, dance and arts communities across the globe have taken this beautiful dance form back from the hands of mediocrity and given it new life. Come and experience the magic of Hoop Dance for your self with one of Hoop Revolution’s action packed series’! You’ll find it’s easy with our custom created hoops for adults. These hoops almost swing with a power of their own, giving you the freedom to move, dance and express your heart out!

Hoop Dance is great for the body, not to mention your social life! Most find themselves sleeker, elongated and more fluid after just one month of consistent hoop dancing. By adding Hoop Dance into your life you will also grow more confident and full of positive energy! A hoop over your shoulder makes a great conversation piece, don't be surprised if you find yourself the life of every party you go to!

Come and unlock your potential! Let the fabulous inner you out to play! In these extraordinary tutorials on Hoop Dance you will not only increase awareness of your body but also your mind and spirit!

A little about my approach:

I believe the hoop has the power to transform and enrich the lives of people everywhere. In my classes I like to highlight the transformative aspects of hooping as well as the play, fitness and performance benefits. My approach is very detail oriented and gives people a solid foundation, focusing on strengthening the core and hooping from the inside out. I think to truly excel at anything you have to be willing to slow down, dig deep and really get into the nitty gritty core. All this to say that my approach pays much attention to detail, foundation and the cultivation of joy and flow!

Come and benefit from the years of experience under my belt and my precise and straightforward teaching style!

Here is what one of my students had to say after spending some hoop time with me.

Jamie will be offering treatments during the mentor training to keep your body, mind and spirit in tip top shape! Jamie's sessions combine Sound Therapy, Bodywork, Color Therapy, Energy Healing, Aromatherapy and more! Each treatment is tailored to your individual needs at the time - you can also choose which modalities you would like to experience. There will be a limited number of sessions available during the training. In order to ensure you get a treatment, we suggest registering in advance. Session slots will be given out in order of earliest payment. Jamie is offering a special hooper training discount for registering in advance as well.

Rates: (sessions include any or all of the above modalities)

Jamie is trained in Deep Tissue, Structural Integration, Swedish Massage and Energetic Massage techniques. She combines bodywork with various sound therapy tools including tuning forks, planetary gongs, crystal singing bowls, and toning. Sound therapy takes the effects of bodywork to a much deeper level - your muscles will relax allowing more flexibility and freedom of movement and you will feel much less sore than you normally would from 4 days of hooping! Other effects can include increased energy, deeper sleep, a more balanced emotional state, a general feeling of increased peace and joy and more!

What is covered in a beginner/intermediate class?

* Hooping on the waist, hips, hands, legs and shoulders!
* beginning and intermediate level tricks; depending on how quickly you all progress!
* Strengthening; we will do squats, lunges and arm movements (all while hooping!) to strengthen and prepare our bodies to flow into all the delicious movements in hoop dance!

Specialized Techniques covered:

** The Mechanics of Hooping: How is it that we affect the hoop? Using your “points” to guide and propel your hoop with ease.

* Multi Awareness: The ability to do one thing with your body while you do another thing, often opposite and even in different rythms, with your hoop. Achieved by cultivating the ability to adjust your focus between two separate goals. Ie; leaping while simultaneously moving the hoop up to your shoulders. This skill is ESSENTIAL to truly dancing with your hoop!
