Fire Dance workshop: This workshop aims to expand your repertoire with fire hula hoop and your way of expression with it. We are going to work on fire hoop tricks with and without fire. Next to that we will focus on dance & movement with your fire. Accompanied by live music. Together we will create a warm and exciting fire ritual for each hooper. We will make sure you will achieve an intimate state with your fire and, from that state, you will be able to dance more freely. This workshop is about discovering new possibilities of expression and symbiosis with the fire hula hoop in an organic way.
