Floats & Corkscrews ~ Making Spirals with Jocelyn Gordon

Floats & Corkscrews ~ Making Spirals

with Jocelyn Gordon

Sunday, February 27, 2011

11am - 12:30pm

In this workshop, we introduce the concept of Stalls. Stalls are created when the hooper and the hoop move at the same rate/speed. This creates the illusion of the hoop "floating". Stalls / Floats allow for sustained spinning and mesmerizing hoop dance.

Corkscrews are Floats in Spiral Patterns. They create a beautiful pattern and allow you to place the hoop on the body and lift the hoop off the body. They can also be combined into gorgeous off the body moves that create a Vortex pattern around the body.
