I really wish that I could have seen this live. I was at Rothbury too....this reminds me of a much better version of a piece my dance troupe performed at Bella Madre loast year. This was terrific and awe inspiring. THANK YOU!
WOW, this is officially the best hoop dance performance I have ever seen!! Amazing ladies!
PS - Does anyone know what those "firefly fans" that Shakti (I think it's her) uses in the middle and at the end of the act are called? I saw them once before as a fire tool but I am wondering if anyone know where I could purchase glow or fire "firefly fans"
I'm with you, I really want a paid of those! From what I understand they're just LEDs on the end of long springs with the battery packs in their hands, a performance artist that goes by "Sage" also has a pair. The construction sounds simple, but I would def love to purchase some. If you find any leads let me know!
wow! really incredible! and visually engaging the entire time. and i'm at work where i can only watch youtube videos with no sound. looking forward to seeing it with music when i get home. beautiful!!!
Wow. Beautiful, girlies! Bordering on *sacred,* with your white costumes and your otherworldly movements and props. Noticed a Hoop Convergence influence (Boston Hoop Troop square and Alley 'Oop multiples class eagle thang). Fun to see it all come together. Good work. :)
Yeah, and to echo Lucian, was this 8 minutes long? Engaging the whole way through, fo' sho.'
Most beautiful dancing I have ever seen! Gives me amazing sensations just watching the video...I can't imagine how much more intense it would have been to be in the audience!!
I have not seen a more incredible hoop performance. Thank you, thank you for that. There are so many important things going on here. I got chills just before the 5min mark. I don't even think I have watched an 8 min video on YT. 3 minutes in I knew I was watching the whole thing.
This performance literally brought tears to my eyes. You girls are two of the most beautiful beings I've ever come into contact with. Your grace inspires me beyond belief and your eclectic form of expression is transcendent. Much love hoop sisters.
This performance was really new ground for us. I felt the hoop community there with me as we explored sacred geometry, the exploding square, and storytelling with the hoop (very inspired by Lunar Fire as well). Thanks team HoopCon 09 for all the inspiration!! We had FUN with this!
This is one of the most beautiful hoop dance performances I've ever seen. You are both so talented, graceful and beautiful! Thank you for inspiring me.
Oh my GOSh!!! <3 I am welling up in tears this is soo beautiful! I can barely even handle this. I had to pause it to catch my breath. Twice. This is the most amazing, heart warming, thoughtfully and beautifully choreographed performance I've ever seen! Seriously. All the different elements, the beautiful dancing between transitions! Both of you so graceful and full of beauty and wisdom. I am truly honored to call you hoop sisters and to have performed with you both. :) <3 xoxo <3
Truly one of the most captivating hoop performances I've ever seen! BIG thanks and love!

HAfiz, look at the perfect One at the circle's center.
She spins and whirls like a golden compass,
Beyond all that is rational,
To show this dear world
That everything,
Everything in existence
Does point to God
- from A Golden compass, Hafiz
