First Fire Dance Performance in Australia π₯π
A few months ago (November 2024), I had the honor of performing my very first Fire Show in Mission Beach, QLD, and it was truly something special.
Funny thing is, this all started as a simple hobby in January 2018 when I gifted myself a hula hoop for the holidays. I began learning hula hooping through YouTube watching Deanne Loveβs tutorials and it felt so natural, nothing forced. What began as play slowly grew into meeting hoopers as I was traveling and then the hula hoop community in Barcelona which led to performing, which eventually opened the door to teaching.
Ten years ago, I never would have imagined myself doing anything circus related, let alone performing in front of people. My background is in Athletic Training, similar to sports physical therapy, but I realized I didnβt want to work only with athletes. I wanted to create spaces that include everyone, no matter their age or ability. Thatβs how Spiral Flow Experience was born.
So while most of my photos are from community classes with kids, adults, and even the elderly, it all really started with a hoop, a spark of curiosity, and a love for movement.
Grateful for the synchronicity, the support, and the beautiful energy of that night.
