Hoopie Award Nominations: Gratitude

   Mon, January 14, 2008 - 4:22 PM
PIcture from Weaver St Market, 2004

I just found out about these nominations and feel honored to have been nominated for Fire Hooper of the Year. Also, "Hoops for Haiti" was nominated for "Event that introduced hooping to the largest audience".

I am honored that an evening of playful filming with Scott on drums "Friday night date" was the video that introduced me as a fire hooper to the youtube & hooping.org community. AND that an event that was very significant for me, the local community and a group of Haitian orphans (who had never seen hooping before) was recognized as well.

Thanks for the nominations.

Since I never posted this fire hoop video on tribe and have found a recent fire video from a holiday performance, I thought I'd post them.

In gratitude & revolving joy

Yay!
I voted for you for this and also for Hoops for Haiti. I also nominated you originally for best female hooper originally. I think you totally rock on every level. Good luck!

Thanks for your nomination and sweet comment. I've been voting for you for Best Tribe member! You ARE the moderator of the coolest hoop tribe ever!

much love

By the way~ I want to say that Caroleeena's beautiful fire hoop performance was UNFORTUNATELY not posted from that dec 1 show. She was a total pleasure to witness.

AND~ As Spiral & I both were nominated for "fire hooper of the year", we have been practicing with double fire hoops and will hopefully get some sisterly video up soon!
