Hoop La La

In this series we will learn some of my favorite beginner to intermediate hula hoop tricks in a sequence that flows together. We will focus on “the flow state” and using it along with our movements to express, heal and come up with your own combinations of tricks! I will have extra hula hoops to borrow in class and ones for purchase to take home if you don’t have one!

Mariah’s Bio:

Hey there! My name is Mariah. Lover of nature, music, dance, travel and all forms of artistic expression. After growing up my whole life outside of Philadelphia where my love for hula hooping started, I spent 3 glorious years traveling, working in other countries and developing my love for circus arts before ending up here in the magical land of Taos where I’ve been since 2020.

For the past 7 years I’ve been dedicated to attending flow/circus events all over the world, learning from the masters, teaching, performing and connecting with the community. Today I am a passionate flow artist with an extra special love for hula hoops and movement as medicine. I love all styles of hula hooping from circus flare like juggling, large shapes and multi hooping to a more technical style. I also enjoy dancing with staffs, fans and poi.

It is so magical to feel the way these props and movements can help you connect with your body, mind, emotions, energy, sacred geometry and space and time around you. Unlocking that flow state we have inside all of us is such a powerful medicine and teacher. I have found great healing through this expression and I hope to share it with as many people as possible!
