Looking around at last Sunday's Austin Hoopers Meetup, I realized that our core group is developing some serious talent. It's amazing what regular practice will do to speed up one's skills. When Holly asked me if I would be ready to do fire poi by next February, I answered Of course! without any hesitation. And we've got such a nice variety of skills in the group. Juggling, poi, hooping, acrobatic yoga, and kite flying. And that's just for starters. I'm branching out to staff twirling (to help satisfy my
jōjutsu fantasies), Lucien has jumping stilts (just like
6opou), and Randal has hinted that he'd like to do some
slacklining.
Toss in a few clowns and a bear on a unicycle, and we'd have our very own circus! Sweet.
