👯‍♀️ with @fairyflowarts to @skyflowartist super fun choreo from their class at @swhoopcon in Bristol, UK!
🌈🫶🌈
This was the last day, and we were depleted but determined to make this video together for the memories, and I’m so glad we did.

My first SWhoop was everything I could’ve dreamed and more! I have so much I wanna share from this trip. I feel so lucky I got to not only travel abroad, but also be there with my dear friend, Alicia. Can’t believe we only met this January, and so grateful for our immediate connection.
❤️‍🔥
Thank you @hoopingmad for this beautiful and playful space you’ve created for us. Literally bringing folks together from all parts of the globe. I definitely hope to be at SWhoop 2028!

✨It’s not about perfection, it’s how it makes me feel✨
Long caption alert, but it’ll be good practice for your attention span.
😌
I have never trained in dance, but I’ve ALWAYSSS had a special interest in dance; watching YouTube videos, making up dances and music videos in my head, joining the ensemble for the school musical, shaking ass at a good DJ set (or around my house) and go-go dancing when the opportunity arises!
💃
As a performer, I get to express myself on stage through movement in many forms, choreographed and otherwise, but not simply dancing; I’ve always been more comfortable with a prop in my hand. This is my third dance class with @steven.prince.tate , and when I tell you this FEEDS my soul and regulates my nervous system ( a BIG part of why I love to dance).
💗
While I care the most about how incredibly good this is for me mentally (and physically), I am excited to keep exploring and progressing in this outlet as someone who has always wanted to DANCE and develop skills in this area!
✨
It has been rad to experience expressive movement as a group and how powerful these classes feel with everyone moving together. I’ve also always loved doing group hoop choreo for this reason!
👯‍♀️
Thank you, Coach, for giving us this space and teaching us in such a fun and encouraging way. And thank you to everyone in the class for hyping me the hell upppp at the end of this video! Had to splice two together because I just loved hearing the encouragement in the end clip!
🫶
This class was the perfect way to end my 31st year of life and enter into my 32nd! This year, I’m going to keep investing in FUN things that bring me joy without letting perfectionism hold me back!

🫀Miserable Part 2🫀
Messy, visceral, joyful, miserable…the human experience?
❤️‍🩹
I was going to trim this one down more and make a third part, but instead, I’m just sharing it all, and I hope you’ll take the time to watch! See Part 1 in my last post!
🫶
This was nowhere near my cleanest or most technical routine, but it was fulfilling and expressive, and that’s what I care about most!

🫀Miserable Part 1 - Big Top Tease: Rock & Roll🫀
•
Once I settled on this song for this show several months back, the concept came fairly quickly! My favorite routines are not always the most skill heavy, but the ones where I get to emote and find some catharsis.
🔥
Grateful to my partner for being willing to play pretty much any role I throw at him and caring about my vision.
🫶
I hope you enjoy, more parts to come!

✨✨✨
Throwback to having a moment under the moon at the very end of the Big Gay Dance Party with @qcgproductions for @friendsmemphis in June!
✨🌕✨
I love when I truly just catch a vibe, and go-go gigs are one of my favorite ways to do that.

In honor of the next full moon burn 🌝2MORROW🌝, here’s a throwback to the @grindcityflowarts May Full Moon Burn with @fairyflowarts
🔥🧚‍♀️🫶✨🔥
I had a badass song paired with this before getting a new phone, but the draft saved without music. When this song was suggested, it just really made me smile watching us flow together, and I had to keep it it for the pure vibes and how well it fit.
🥹
Forever grateful for the friends I’ve made just in the past YEAR alone due to this community and my love for a plastic circle!

Another tiny @riverbeatfest draft!
☀️☀️☀️
Flowing to @phantogram at sunset by the river is now a core memory, for sure. Added music on top because the live music ended a bit before the video did.
🎶
Thank you @hoop_rebel for snagging this quick snippet!

🕺
Groovin’ at @riverbeatfest, caught by my good pal @mindbodyhoop 🫶 I miss you!!!
✨☀️🌈🌊✨
This was a fun hoop spot and there are so many other good ones downtown; who wants to go down to the river and play?

Forest Flow to the smooth vibes of @unknownate with my new friend @vitamin_cheeze. I love you SOOOO much, my lil Keebler elf.
✨✨✨
I just got back from attending my first ever flow festival @glfproductions, and I am having a hard time reintegrating into society.
😅
I was anxious about camping for the first time in over ten years, but I would like to go live in the woods with some flow props and friends forever now.
🌳✨🌞🫶🌱
I got VERY few photos and videos, which I’m trying not to be bummed about by reminding myself that was kinda the point. I really wanted to immerse myself and check out a bit for the weekend, and I thoroughly enjoyed trying new things, flowing, and just WATCHING all of the incredibly talented and creative humans I was surrounded by.
🌈
I have so many thoughts and feelings about this experience, but for now, I’ll just say I am so grateful for the new connections made and the inspiration and creative energy I left with.
🫶
Honestly, don’t know if this trip would’ve happened if @photographlee hadn’t said I could tag along with him, so thank you, my friend.

Grateful to @queercircusgirl for requesting that @hoop_rebel and I do doubles in her EDI routine last year which encouraged me to actually learn more and get comfy with two hoops!

Also, extremely grateful to @lila_chupahoops and @photographlee doubles classes at @highaltitudehoopretreat last year for really propelling me forward and inspiring me to have confidence in myself!
