Kansas City, Missouri
Hello everyone! My name is Angela, or lilhoopgirl, and I am so very excited to be teaching at High Altitude Hoop Retreat 2021. I have taught hoop classes regionally and internationally for the past two years. I have a passion for teaching equally as strong as my love for learning new hoop moves and styles. During quarantine, I picked up shuffling and have been inspired to see throw that into my hoop flow and overall movement. I love seeing how my flow changes over the years and now I'm going to have the ability to share that with y'all during this retreat! Amy and Madison are incredible and are going to put on something really special for all of us and I hope you can join! Follow her on Instagram
