Oh, a subject near & dear to my heart! Of course, I can thank my hoop for many things, but one of them is meeting you.

Aw! So true Allison. I'm grateful that you were so patient when we were paired up in the very beginning and I kept dropping my hoop:)
Hula Hoops are a people magnet. Careful when you bring one on the streetcar...:)

I can't believe you've managed to inspire me to add another thing to my 'list of ineresting things to do'! I loved hoola-hooping when I first started over 25 years ago - now I want to go out and start all over again - gotta getta hoop!

Hooray! Inspiring others is a thrill. There will be hoops sold at the Tranzac Artisans Gift Fair on December 6th and 21st in the Annex for those of you in Toronto looking for a killer gift (for yourself).
Maybe I'll see you hooping around the city MoJo...

Small world - my friend helped to start OM festival sooo many years ago, and I already checked out the Tranzac fair and it seems to be run by a girl I went to school with over 20 years ago! Wow - I think the hooping was meant to be ;-)

Sexilicious indeed! Especially with you in the hoop. I can't wait already for the snow to clear so I can hoop barefoot in the grass again.

Thanks for writing this email.... I got a hoop this summer and LOVE IT!!
I think you are talking about Sadie's classes... here's the link for anyone who wants a hoop or wants to take classes in Toronto. http://www.hooptoronto.com/
Also, the SportsHoops are *not* the same thing! They're heavy and have annoying bumps on the inside that bruise and make it really hard to do tricks. Get a hoop from Sadie, or your local hooper, it'll be prettier, more fun, and you'll support a local artist!

Yes, Thanks Heather. I did take my classes with Sadie and I also bought my wonderful hoop from her. Sadie is fantastic! I believe she is teaching a weekend workshop on the 29th (next Saturday). There will also be a beginner hoop workshop for people brand new to hooping taught by Allison the same day. They have hoops there! You just need to show up willing. :)
