Class Description
At long last, Danielle is offering youth classes at the Madison Circus Space! Danielle wishes she had learned about hoop dance sooner in life and is dedicated to sharing the joy of hooping with children.
In this class series, kids will learn beginner friendly hoop tricks through creative movement exploration exercises, partner/group activities, and games such as Hoop Scotch, Let it Roll, Hoop Says, the Hoop Swap Game and Thread the Needle. All hoops are provided and absolutely no experience is needed!
Hoop dance not only has physical benefits like building strength and coordination, but it also boosts self esteem through learning new skills and practicing positive self talk in an encouraging and supportive environment. Hoop dance strengthens self expression and provides an outlet for processing emotions and stress, as well as encouraging mindfulness, focus, and being present.
