Well yesterday marked my year and a half hooping anniversary! I would have blogged yesterday but I ended up going out to the bar and didn't get back till pretty late. I also wanted to make a video yesterday to commemorate this achievement, but again I didn't get back till later. So hopefully I can do that today and put it up in a timely matter. But yea, #FlashBackFriday (or I guess it would have been #ThrowBackThursday) to the day I first bought my hoop. I can't believe how far I have come since then! It seems like it was only yesterday that I was trying to learn how to do my first trick. And I can remember every time I went to make a video and all of the times I just lost myself in the |
hoop. It's always been the one thing that could put me in a better mood. Sadly, I don't have the same feelings when hooping that I used to: all the new wonder and excitement that came with it, the challenge of getting down the basics, the ambition to get better every day, and the giddiness of it all. I really want to get back to that. It seems that now I haven't been connecting with the sacred circle as well as I used to, but I'm making that my goal now that I'm at a year and a half. I've kind of plateaued, but I'm going to get back into. When I get back I really want to get a weighted hoop to use for exercise because I feel like I don't get enough from hooping with my polys and Spencer is way too big for me.
So I'm going to keep this blog strictly about hooping and I'll make another one later talking about everything that happened yesterday. So let's look back on how far I've come. Here are my videos for my 2 months, my year, and my year and a half. All of these videos are to the same song in order to show not only the progress that I have made in general, but also to my one particular hooping song. **All of my other videos are on my 'Hooping Videos' page if you are interested in those as well.

I have most of my hooping pictures on my 'Hooping Pictures' page but here are some never-before seen pictures (well most of them) throughout my journey as well. Hopefully I can get many more here in Puerto Rico.
And I would just like to thank everyone for supporting me through this journey! If you are interested in getting connected with hooping, or it's community, I have a 'Contact Me' form on my 'About' page that you can ask me any questions.
