This morning thought about how this woman walked up to the hoola hoop area last night at a yoga event and told me that I needed to stick my butt out and she calmly proceeded to hoop it up effortlessly.
Hadn't hoola hooped in a while and I guess it's not like riding a bicycle.
The yoga event at Union Station was special. It was a fundraiser (for veterans of war) and a yogapalooza of sorts.

As I checked photos on Instagram, I spotted several photos of myself including one that had me cracking up.
There was live music -- a reggae band -- and once the music started, it was hard to hear Elle so the instructions kind of floated around which is why I'm going to say that I look, in Alison's word, like a stranded turtle.
I remember that hula hooping takes a lot less movement than one would guess. A small amount of reciprocating motion, rather than circling, keeps it afloat.
ReplyDeleteSounds pretty accurate because the hoops instructor looked so relaxed that I wanted to serve her tea.
ReplyDeleteWe were a complete row of stranded turtles - that's the official, new, name for the pose.
ReplyDeleteI guess the shape of your head defines whether it's a Snapping stranded or Box stranded!
