~This is a taste of how I move with the hoop- in studio and performance- as well as my first foray into video editing. Circa 2007. A new demo reel is forthcoming, stay tuned!
Special thanks to Christian Breeden for his help with this as well as to Jim McGuire, photographer/videographer extraordinaire, who has generously filmed and shot me over the years. The silhouette footage was shot at his studio in Charlotte, NC.
