The Creative Hoop Dance Experience:
Hoop Dance Fundamentals
Learn 28 basic hoop techniques to begin your hoop dance journey. Great for children and adults to learn this beautiful movement art form.
The Creative Hoop Dance Experience:
Repertoire
Learn 5 different intricate excerpts of Jennifer Dennehy’s original choreography from various works which has been performed throughout the USA. Each excerpt will first be performed by Jennifer and her students. Then Jennifer will break down just the footwork and then just the hoop separately. After learning each piece separately we will combine them together. By the end of this video and with regular practice you will be able to successfully perform these segments of choreography.
Jennifer welcomes you to utilize this material in your own performances in your communities or with your hoop performance groups. A great way to begin or enhance your performance offerings.

Explorations

Each exploration dives into one of the elements of dance: space, time or force. This course is perfect for all levels of hoop dancers from beginner to professional.
