Hooping.

I'm not the best at thinking up snazzy titles in the middle of the night.

Oh well.

Anyway, I've been doing aerial hoops for the past month and I've got this to show for it:

Okay, yeah, I should have been straightening that leg. Sorry.

I've always been flexible and strong so aerial hoops has been more of an exploration than extension of those aspects of myself.

(I also tend to take my flexibility for granted. For example, I'm very much aware that I can do the splits no problem even when I haven't warmed up. I can actually sit in them comfortably. After much reminding from the Bear, I finally measured my oversplits: I can go into an oversplit of more than 7 inches above the floor from a side split cold. Jeez, I wish I'd known that earlier!)

Anyway, I find this a pretty cool way of stress busting besides walking my baby goldie for what must be around an hour each day (not kidding, golden retrievers are very high energy breeds). I'll definitely update with more in another month or so.
