The Harbin Hoop Jam provides an amazing space to integrate new understanding and experience from Hoopcamp, work on specific skills with others in spontaneous labs, hoopdance to your heart's content, share your unique style and approach, soak in the tubs and form a close-knit community. Anything and everything we wish to explore will be our guide for deepening connection to both outer and inner movement of the circle.
The meals are fantastic, the setting is beautiful, the ceilings are high, the DJs excellent, the pools are close, there are hundreds of acres of woods to walk in if you like, massages are available in and out of the water, clothes are optional (though we usually wear clothes for hoopdance and meals, and the lack of clothes can be discreet).
There is enough time in this 4-5 day jam that you can relax, hang out, and still hoop as much as you want!
The days begin and end on our cue, usually starting with a juicy morning session of body love and awakening. Nayeli serves as river guide for movement and jam sessions, opening up the space for desires to be fulfilled and all who wish to contribute may do so.
Mornings usually consist of stretching, yoga, Thai massage, partner work, AcroYoga therapeutics, alignment exercises, Chi Kung, spontaneous input from a variety of movement arts, a gentle hoop session, and anything that will give our bodies the love they need in order to hoop as much as possible.
Afternoon sessions are more focused on holding jam space with particular themes, circulating and sharing knowledge and skills based on what is sparkling on our personal creative edge and the collective energy of the group.
Evenings tend to be for the pure joy of the dance and sharing space, experiencing the power of group flow and taking time to dance, play, watch, snack and dance again as the spirit moves you. The hoop space is sound-proof, so we can go as long as we want! Did we mention there are always snacks, tea, and juice? Lots and lots of juice!!!
Time at Harbin is guaranteed to expand and evolve your hoopdance, hoop flow, and hoop community.
