hey guys, it's been a while since i posted a vid, so I figured I would! Actually here are two from my practice today in NorCal. It's been smokey here from the fires so I haven't been able to do much hooping outside, (or at all because i don't have any space inside right now...but that will change in a month! whew!) but today was clear and had a nice breeze...yay!
the first one is me being a complete dork and feelin' the music to Gorillaz...I ended up groovin' to part of the second song too because I just couldn't help it...
the second one is a slower hooping to my current fave song by Fleet Foxes...it's good for me because I don't often hoop slowly and I find when I do, I really enjoy it...and I think I channel my 14 years of ballet, and it brings out that more flowy side of my dancing, which comes more naturally to me.
my next goal is to learn how to edit vids on my mac (i know it's probably super easy, I just haven't gotten around to learning it) so that I can not force you guys to look down my shirt, and get weird close-ups of me when starting and stopping the camera!
here are the vids on youtube:

and on vimeo if you prefer:

vimeo.com/1278262
p.s....sorry they are kind of dark...not because i need you guys to see my sweaty face and weird expressions, but because I wish you could see my sweet sweet dogs more...they love it when we hoop out on the lawn!

Re: jennaluna with foxes and gorillaz
Fri, July 4, 2008 - 1:58 AMthe grace of your dance really shines through-- you have a nice eagle roll and have a good sense of how your body is placed in relation to the hoop if that makes sense. keep spinning and sharing!

Sat, July 5, 2008 - 8:45 AMBeautiful!! Great hoop-dances...they'd be lovely without the hoop too! I am striving for that quality~ to dance with my hoop so it doesn't look like I am trying to hoop, ya know? So thanks for that inspiration! -
