Happy hooping 
Hey-o! I spent most of yesterday glued to the computer, editing photos from the Washington Park shoot. They turned out amazing. Viviane (the model and hooperstar pictured below) is photogenic and made my hoops and clothing look amazing!
Here’s a few of my favorite shots:

Tonight Chad and I will be checking out a studio to rent for filming videos in.
I’ll be hooping at a kids’ party this saturday. Between hooping and makeup-ing, and sewing, I’m extremely busy and that’s how I like it.
My dog misses me though:
Why you no play with me?
Hoopingbysarah is (finally, he he) on Etsy!
I’ll be editing photos from the pictures I took in Washington Square Park like a boss today and adding more items to the shop.
Before you get up for that final snack, I want you to know I’ll be right back. Stay tuned!
Hope everyone had a fantastic long weekend! I had the pleasure of photographing and styling what turned out to be an amazing shoot for hoopingbysarah.
Here’s a few of my favorites:
The models pictured are my amazing hooping friends Aurora, Hilary, and Shannon.
Today I’m headed into Philly to take more pictures and dress up more lovely hoopsters.
By the way, if any hoopers in the Lansdale area are free this weekend, Shannon is having a free hoop jam at Memorial Park. You just might end up on my website if you attend, since I’ll be there with my camera (and hoops of course!).
Pretty soon you’ll never have to leave your house again, yet still get to take fun hooping classes with me. That’s right, online hooping classes are going to be in production very soon! We rented a studio and ordered a new lens and mic for the Cannon Rebel, so stay tuned.
Expect to see downloadable videos on hoop dance choreography, hoop dance toning & other hoop dance tutorials.
I’m also in the process of working on a hoop dance clothing line! Photo shoots are in progress. Look for photos very very soon.
Any specific video or item or clothing you’d like to see? Let me know.
My hoop guru Leah Troiano and I hooped on the CBS3 Morning show with Erika Von Tiehl…the show aired this morning. I haven’t seen it yet but my dad and a few others are taping DVR-ing it for me.
Here’s a shot my friend Chrissy took with her phone:

In other, other news, Chad and I are still going strong with the Vegan challenge. Yesterday we had leftovers for lunch and I made nachos smothered in beans and roasted red peppers for dinner…the guacamole made up for the lack of cheese. Chocolate coconut cupcakes hit the spot for dessert. I’m too lazy to upload the photos right now…perhaps tomorrow.
I’m off the clean my sewing room Hoopy hump day.
I had an amazingly fun time this morning hooping with my hoop guru, Leah Troiano of Cancer Health & Wellness and Erika Von Tiehl for the CBS3 Morning Show. We’re going to be on TV tomorrow morning!
Last night I took an advanced belly dance class at Studio 1831 in Philly. The tremendously talented Valerie wants me to teach hooping classes there.
After class, Chad and I headed to our friend’s 1920′s themed going-away party.
1920′s beefcake Chad. Of course he forgot to take a picture me in my hot flapper getup.
Of course there was cheese galore at the party, but I stayed strong and wasn’t even tempted. The hummus that Chad made was a delicious decoy away from the cheese.
Earlier yesterday I made a veganized version of Peanut Butter and Hot Fudge Pudding Cake. It was to die for! The original recipe is from Stephanie’s Blog. I just omitted the dairy and oil and used coconut milk instead.
Chocolatey goodness
I can has cake too?
