PHILOSOPHY
You've probably noticed how hooping, and the teaching of it, has started to spread on the international circuit. While we live in a market economy we are too often confronted with competition as a potential threat to our business. I prefer to see humans and in particular, the hoopy kind, as a global community who can assist and inspire each other with the understanding that the more you give, the more you receive. What we are left with is the creation of complementary businesses and business practices with confidence, integrity and respect for our own individual natures as teachers and lovers of the hoop. Discover your own personal style and strengths and translate this into your classes. Learn the foundations then teach and develop what you love!

I welcome and congratulate you on taking this exciting step. It will change your life and probably already has. As a teacher you have chosen to share your skill and talents to those who need or want it. As a hooper you are gifting your passion for a practice that is all about fun, joy, health and creativity. You are helping to create a different currency in this world known as hoopiness.
