"Open Air" with Baxter of the Hoop Path
Moving from last year's workshop tour theme of "Deep Water", Baxter
talks about the intentions of this year's tour, "Open Air"; to dissolve
into movement meditation, reveal the traps of the ego and allow an
investigation into the disabling emotion of insecurity.

| The HoopPath is a hoopdance curriculum founded by master hooper Jonathan
Baxter. The HoopPath method stands out in this new, dynamic movement
modality as a unique blend of rigorous technique and deep
introspection. Bax’s early years practicing alone and blindfolded in
his backyard in Carrboro, NC, gave rise to a broad range of highly
nuanced technical insights, as well as a deep and real connection to the
transformative potential the hoop’s playful form disguises. (from the HoopPath website)
