What’s up, D.C.? (If it were up to me, you’d have representation in Congress. Just so you know…)
Hello, D.C. area Hoopers. It has been too long since I was in the Capital City and we are going to change that right now. I taught in Baltimore about two years ago and have not been back since. I did see many of you at the last HoopPath Retreat (”HP3″), but the next one of those is not until June and I just can’t wait that long to see you. So, I’m coming up super soon to bring my new workshop series, The Warrior Path, to you. We have found a reasonable sized place to hold a weekend of hoop instruction and Community. The venue should be big enough to have a good size group, but small enough to create a cozy intimacy. I’m excited to be coming, and I hope this workshop weekend can be worked into your holiday plans. Now, I’ll give you the details.
The Warrior Path:
The Warrior Path is a brand new workshop with new terms, techniques, and exercises intended to introduce hoopers to what we call “Warrior” style hooping. This concept combines on and off body techniques with rapid current and plane changes. The Warrior Path techniques are also integrated with internal, meditative foci, as well, to help the hooper open up to their own stillness and clarity.
The HoopPath has taught Warrior techniques since its inception, but this will be the first time that we have concentrated this much time and energy on this wonderfully beautiful and unique approach to hoop dance. We assure you that even those who have taken HoopPath classes and workshops before will come away with new terms and concepts to further their own hoop practice. This is indeed the long awaited second chapter so many of you have asked for over the last year.
Within the HoopPath Community, the term, “Warrior” refers to an indomitable attitude or spirit to which each of us has access and, through mindful practice, can foster and grow within ourselves. The techniques of The Warrior Path help us to explore and develop an inner calm and resilience that strengthens and improves our hoop dance, while also teaching us more about our own personal power away from the hoop.
While this workshop is very much a continuation of our past workshops, we have designed this series to be equally accessible to those who have never taken an HP class before. If you have not taken a workshop with us before, you will need to sign up for Day One. Day one of WP will be very similar to Day One of our other workshops. If you have not been to one of our workshops before, you should know that the skills covered in Day One are hardly ‘beginner.’ Day One sets up the terms, concepts, and foundational techniques upon which all the advanced teaching rests. Day One is easily the favorite day of most returning students.
The Tickets:
There are four ticket options for you:
The 3 Day Package (Days 1-3)
Days 1 &2
Days 2&3 (for returning HP students)
The Prices and the Discounts:
There are two discounts available for this event:
1. If you have attended any HoopPath event previously and you are coming alone, you will receive 10% off of your ticket price when you enter “Back Home” in the ‘promo code’ box after selecting your ticket.
2. If you and one or more friends would like to come together, then you will qualify for the “Bring-A-Friend” discount. This discount is only valid when 2 or more tickets are purchased. You may purchase up to six tickets at this price. See instructions below on how to receive this discount.
The prices are as follows:
3 Day package = $170, Bring-A-Friend (2 tickets ordered) = $300*
2 Day packages (1&2, or 2&3) = $120, Bring-A-Friend (2 tickets ordered) = $200.*
(There is a service fee of $5 per ticket charged by our ticket broker.)
* The “Bring-A-Friend” price is good for up to six tickets on one order. These tickets must be purchased for the same package. 6 B.A.F. tix =$600.
Directions for receiving Discounts when ordering:
1) If you have had an HP workshop before and you are coming alone (one ticket), enter “back home” in the ‘promo code’ box to receive 10% off my workshops.
2) If you are coming with a friend, select the “Bring-a-Friend” ticket option and choose “2-6″ on the pull down. Then, in the ‘promo code’ box enter “Bring-a-Friend.” This will reduce the price of each ticket. These tickets are non-refundable, so make sure your friends are committed.
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY:
**I use an online ticket agent for all my productions, and the service charge goes directly to them. The software they use is not exactly set up for our pricing strategies, so I apologize if the “work around” seems tedious. I will be auditing the ticket sales to make sure everything goes to plan, and if there is any confusion or error in your ordering I will alert you so we can correct it. Just so you know, despite available loopholes in the system, you must buy 2 tickets to receive the “Bring-A-Friend” prices.
IF something doesn’t work, please let me know. I will correct it immediately.
So, you ready?
