I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

More info about myself and my hoop art can be found on my self-designed website: www.spiralhoopdance.com & on my tribe page (I'm pretty partial to tribe over myspace in terms of design and content): http://people.tribe.net/spiraldancerI'm gratefully relishing my life and the active creation of it. I am conscious, creative, mysterious, multifaceted and joyously alive. Inspiration is a large part of my purpose in this life-inspiring and being inspired. Pisces sun/Leo rising/Aries moon. Mayan Blue Solar Hand. I am feeling the creatrix flow and working hard on my current path of sharing healing and artistic hoop dance through performance and teaching. Not much time for myspace with my hands blessedly full making it work by 'alternative' means...but here i am nonetheless ;-)

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

aLive, vibrant souls. folks living outside the shackles of mainstream American life, those working hard to bring about change, and the ones infiltrating the system. those dancing happily, deeply & darkly on the edge of sanity. other artists of all mediums- especially those making a living doing what they love. creative souls, active souls, peaceful, loving & art promoting souls, event planners, musicians, dancers, circus folk!, carnies, those who care about this life and how they go through it- taking care of themselves and uplifting others. people who value their life, time and energy enough to find other things to do than watch TV! learn, read, create, teach, go outside, draw, dream, scream, stretch, breathe, sing, Dance...

Winter Performance Mercenary Mode

Wowzers...back from the road and right back into the circus flow. I needed the money, to be sure, so getting two relatively last-minute gigs in NC was a welcome and well-timed influx of cash. No small...
