Malcolm Stuart, Hoopcon 2010

This performance was amazing. Just watching it makes me realize how I need to break my bubble and explore moving in new ways. Malcolm does things I’d never give myself permission to do and he does it so smooth. This is a testament to freeing ourselves from the limitations of what we expect to look [...]

Back from Boulder… on to Fiji

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bow lines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ::: Mark Twain I yanked that quote and photo from Sara’s [...]

Baxter Hoops Blind to “Spirit Rescue” by Charlie P off “Everybody Needs to Know”

I can’t even find a copy of this track online to link to but the track is sick. And Bax is tearing it up. We’ve got a new sweet vid from Brecken a few days ago and now something tight, flowing and innovative from Bax?! This is gonna be a good Burn. Share on Facebook

Brecken – Dynamic Floor Hooping, round 1

Damn. This is maybe the best hooping video I can remember. At the very least, it’s the most original. The editing is artistic and carries her point across. This is about the process and the freedom to explore. Brecken isn’t trying to hoop like anyone but herself and she doesn’t limit what that might look [...]

Rising Appalacia

I was able to hop on stage twice at Floydfest with these amazing women. I’m actrually still here and writing from a little internet kiosk. Leah and Chloe are sisters, amazingly talented lyricists and musicians, and on top of that, they spin fire. On top of that, they might join us for the burn. We’ll [...]

Nothing is something worth doing – Schpongled Hoops

I can’t believe I didn’t get to connect with this woman when she came out and stayed with Khan recently. This video is great, inspiring, artistic, and the girl has skills. Wow. Share on Facebook

Co-creating Reality – Shakti Sunfire

Everything is pointing me in the right direction. I just have to keep climbing. Another post from Shakti Sunfire’s writing on Elephant Journal. I can taste the essence of what’s to come and it scares me and excites me both. On the plane ride back from the Hoop Convergence 2010 in a moment of melancholy [...]

July’s Monthly Rumpus

Once again I’ll be doing a performance at the Monthly Rumpus on July 12th at The Make-Out Room, 3225 22nd Street, 7pm in San Francisco. My amazing friend Julie Greicius writes for the The Rumpus and has invited me to perform. She’s a gorgeous woman, a brilliant writer and a great hooper. It’s sorta funny [...]

Rich at Burning Man Precompression 2010, with DJ Icon

Such a great opportunity for us when we hooped on stage with DJ Icon on the main stage at Precompression at about 1:30 last Saturday. Revolva, Spiral and I killed it :) We’d already performed on the fire stage but getting up again was a treat. Just back from Movement Play. Once again it changed [...]
