What is covered in the Fledglings Series?

* Perfect your technique while hooping on the waist, hips, hands, legs and shoulders!

* Bridge the gap between beginners and intermediate so you can move up to the next level!
* 6-12 advanced beginner 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 in all series', regardless of level or focus:

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

* Split 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!

* FLOW The sensation of effortlessness, no mind and pure joy while in motion. All movements are easier and more enjoyable when you are in this state!

The great benefit of the 6 week series format is that you will have plenty of time to integrate each new skill and movement, bond with your fellow hoopers and work out the kinks. And by committing to a course of action (in any subject) for a set period of time, you open the door to transformation and unparalleled growth!
