As we celebrate the autumnal equinox, what better way to reflect on the coming of fall but to warm up our bodies with some heart-strengthening hooping?! Tonight’s equinox marks a time of year when there are equal amounts of daylight and darkness. This kind of punctuated state of balance is one I frequently experience while hooping. We are the supporting axes around which the hoop spins, gracefully uniting our bodies’ two halves while keeping the ring rollin ’round. As we work to maintain this posture while moving inside the hoop, we can carry it’s metaphor into the coming months~ using our hooping practice to strengthen the invaluable life skill of balance outside the hoop. Happy hoopn’ autumn to you!
