See what people are saying about learning to hoop with Danielle!

Danielle is a wonderful teacher, endlessly encouraging, and overall a great person. As an absolute beginner, I felt that I made visible progress under her instruction every week. Individual attention was balanced perfectly with group demonstration and discussion. She constructed a very supportive environment, and I never felt embarrassed to fail. I’m sure I’m not the first person to describe Danielle’s positivity and cheer as infectious. Spending one hour per week with her is a therapeutic treat!

I went searching for a dance class and this was SO much better! Great energy and truly supportive teaching style geared to individual abilities and interests, combined with super fun group exercises for new skills to build on. Can’t wait for more!

I loved every part of the class! I learned a lot of new tricks, met neat people and felt better at the end of each class. Danielle is a very positive person who has a contagious smile. I would definitely take another class with her again and would recommend her class to others.

What an awesome class! I’m a naturally shy and self-conscious person and Danielle created a safe and encouraging space for me to let go and explore and celebrate. The tricks and techniques were fun, but the best part was just learning to move with hoop and discover that I could actually dance. Thanks Danielle!

This class was fabulous! I can’t believe how much I learned in such a short time! Danielle makes everyone feel so comfortable and confident. The atmosphere of the class is really fun! My favorite parts were hooping with blindfolds on, and off-body tricks. Loved it!

I fell in love with hooping because of this class. Danielle’s energy and positivity is contagious and creates an open, free, inclusive place to learn and grow. I have learned so much from this class but the most important thing I took from this experience has been gaining more confidence in my movements, my body awareness and connectivity, the confidence in trying something new, and ultimately in myself.
