This is meant to be a running journal of my progression while learning hooping. When I build up some confidence, I'll start posting tips, advice, and how-to videos. It's possible in the future I'll buy a high speed camera to do this.

First Hoop Group
Today I went to Discovery Green to hoop with the Houston Hooper Stahs. I really enjoyed hooping with a group and being silly with some new music. Rowan is an incredible organizer and teacher, and there were several other very talented ladies there, like Sassyraffe, Moxi, and Karen, and Kelsi.
There was an amazing gentleman named Tom who was there for both the hooping class and the yoga class following it. This is Tom doing a headstand! Tom is the kind of guy who refuses to act his age, and he's amazing for it.
If you're new to hooping, I'd definitely try to find a community of hoopers to learn with. Try searching Meet Up, Hoop City, and Facebook for groups in your area. Don't be afraid to go alone, but take a friend if it makes you feel more comfortable. Most of these groups are focused on helping beginners get into the sport, so anyone could go and have a great time!
