Get your Maidan on at Hoop Path Brooklyn

So the Maidan. If you don’t know what they are you have probably never attended a Hoop Path workshop with master Hoop Pather Jonathan Livingston Baxter. While I’ll leave the in-depth teaching metaphors to him, I’ll tell you that the Maidan are part of a myth that Bax uses to teach you how to connect to your hoop.

Like Baxter, I usually encourage my students away from the “gotta get tricks” approach to hooping. Besides that, I don’t know that we have that much else in common, besides a weakness for Puma sneakers. But I love his classes and you should check it out of you’re in town. Tickets for this weekend’s workshop in Brooklyn are on sale now.

Come hoop or learn how on Dec 11th!

** Please note that the workshop info looks pretty much the same each month but the workshop content itself may vary since I tailor the class to the experience of the individuals that attend. **

Join us for the next fundamentals workshop for beginners and those who want to recapture their hoop flow.
