A Hoop Dancer for Hooping Enthusiasts

Video of hoop dancer, Beth Lavinder.

I have a select group of hooping videos that I re-share because I love them so. My favorite hoop dancers don't incorporate a lot of highly complicated hoop "tricks." They are just dancing and their moves are completely reachable to every day hooping enthusiasts like me (as opposed to hooping performers).

Of the many hoop dancers that I admire, Beth Lavinder's style is the one that inspires me the most. Follow the video link to watch how she moves around the floor. Notice how she incorporates her arms and legs into her hooping. She is a true "hoop dancer" and one that I strive to emulate.
