Hooping

Oh my goodness...do I ever absolutely LOVE hooping! After class #1 I was 'high' the rest of the day. Just the happiness from hooping, laughing, dancing and sweating kept me going with a huge grin on my face all day long. Bliss...now I know what Sara is talking about. Feels like walking on a cloud, on a sun-shiney day and everything is wonderful. (Can you believe I got all of that from a round piece of plastic and some music?) Ahhhh.
Class #2...even more fun. Learned some new tricks (taking the hoop off and putting it back on my body), had some more fun, got to know my fellow hoopers a bit better, and *this is the best part* was told that I was a 'hooper.' My instructor said in every class there is usually one or two people who you expect to see at hoop jams or events...and she thinks I'm one of them! I know in my heart I am...if I can get my body and that wonderful hoop in sync then I will absolutely be out there hooping it up!
Practice, practice, practice. That's how it becomes easier. Lia tells the story of how she could hardly keep her hoop up at her first class and a year later she has her own hooping business. Could this turn out to be a side for me? RN by day, hooper by night? Sounds like a good name for a future blog, doesn't it? :)
One thing I can be sure of, I'm loving it right now and you never know where life can lead you. I'm keeping an open mind (and a spinning hoop!)
