Hi Hoopers,

I just moved to the DC area - Rockville, MD to be exact - from NYC and I wanted to introduce myself. My name is Sonja and I'd love to get out there and hoop. Where can find classes or hoop jams?

Thanks!

    Same question! I'm Chloe and I just moved here from New Orleans and would love to find a hoop group. Does anyone here meet regularly? It would be so great to get together with other hoopers again, it's been a while!

    Cheers!

      Hey ladies, welcome to the area! Meridian Park in Northwest DC has a drum circle on Sunday afternoons and has brought together some hoopers----although it can get a bit crowded with onlookers, it can be fun, too.

      Maybe this Friday after 5 we can meet on the west side of the Washington Monument?

      Let me know if you are interested!

        Hi Manda! Thanks for the Meridian Park info. Friday at the Washington Monument sounds great. (Unless I get called into work that day, but I doubt it at this point.) Want to confirm with each other later in the week? To see if rain is predicted? Does someone usualy bring music?

        Looking froward to hooping!!

    Welcome to DC. :) If you ever have a day you want to hoop - try Talia's suggestion of using the mailing list/hooping group, and also post up on here and just put the word out! We don't get together regularly, it seems, but mainly it's just due to life being hectic moreso than lack of interest! We have a good amount of hoopers in this area that would love to get together, myself included.

    Let's take advantage of this nice weather while we have it! Who's up for a weekend afternoon jam this upcoming weekend, the 6th or 7th? I am in Arlington, Virginia, but am close enough to DC to meet there, too. Manda mentioned the drum circle at meridian Park - its' so fun there. Lots of space, places to park. I look forward to meeting you!
