World Hoop Day Dance

Tink from Tokyo put together this fun World Hoop Day Choreography and we will be performing it at PHX WHD!

Spend some time watching the video and practicing the dance this week.  She has also provided a written version of the dance to print out and study/practice with.

We will be teaching and practicing the dance during the event and then around 4:30pm we will record the group performing the dance!!

Anybody with video recording and editing skills/equipment is encouraged to PARTICIPATE in making this video.  We will post it to the blog and submit it to Tink to be used in her compilation of videos from groups around the world doing the dance.  As she said... Think global, dance local!

World Hoop Day - What's it all about?

World Hoop Day is a not-for-profit organization that uses a community-based, grass roots approach  dedicated to bringing dance, exercise and toy hoops to under-privileged children living in extreme poverty and the under-developed neighborhoods of our world.  By providing these professional quality hoops, children and their families have the opportunity to experience some fun and joy in what may be an otherwise dismal living situation.

In order to support World Hoop Day and their mission PHX Hoopers is holding a FREE event in Phoenix Civic Space Park on 10.10.10 to bring together our local hoop community and those interested in hooping for a fun-filled, family friendly afternoon in the park.  Their will be plenty of hoops to play with, workshops and one-on-one instruction throughout the afternoon, and new friends to make.  We will also be collecting donations for World Hoop Day in order to support more hoops being delivered to more children around the world.

Please join us!!
