As 2014 comes to an end, Flow Arts Cebu together with Hoopaholic Cebu team up to create "Ignite"- a celebration of the Flow/Fire Arts in Cebu City. Ignite seeks to bring together local spinners and have them share their skill through workshops and performances. We highly encourage those who are fascinated by movement, dance, and fire to join us.

Ignite will be held on a Sunday, December 21st at the Cebu Yacht Club.

Hoopaholic Cebu goes to Boracay for Halloween.

On Halloween of 2013, I flew to Boracay for a three day hooping workshop in three different venues: Tribal Cafe, the Kasbah Restos, and Levantin.

A visit to Kite Asia in D'mall to drop off some hoops for sale.

I've been to Boracay twice before, but I always forget how gorgeous this tiny island is. There's a reason why people flock to this Paradise island over and over.

If you love sunsets, Boracay is the place to be. Its skies project a a pink and purple hue unlike anywhere else. #nofilter

The Hula-hooping workshops

Recruiting new hoopers at Kasbah. Kasbah is a beachfront resto that serves the most delectable Moroccan dishes

We ended our three day workshop at Levantin. Love the vibe of this place.

Here's a little fire hooping performance I did with the Jungle boys at Kasbah. Enjoy the show. :)

Raising Php 25,000 to rebuild a young hooper's home

Holiday Hoop Love for Jane Ann Arnado- read the article by Clair Ching of hooping.org

Jane Ann Arnado is a young hooper I met nearly three years ago while performing in Bogo City (A town north of Cebu). She was also performing with hoops, and I recall her wow an entire gymnasium of people. The crowd loved this little girl and her big talent. We instantly bonded through our love for hooping. She became a beloved member of the Cebu Flow Arts Community, performing and playing alongside local flow artists. Her parents fully supportive of her love for the art.

When Typhoon Haiyan struck the north of Cebu on November 8, Jane Ann and her family were very fortunate to be spared by its wrath.  Their house however- was badly damaged. Still no roof on their heads and no electricity up to this point. With the help of Clair Ching and Philo Hagen of hooping.org we've created a fund raiser to help rebuild their home through an article by Clair Ching. The goal- Php 25,000 (550 USD).

A home without a roof.

All smiles in Fort San Pedro. Here Jane Ann enjoys the luxury of lights before heading back to their power-less province for school.

International Love. It's been three days, and we've already been receiving donations in different currencies from people all over world. Complete with messages filled with love and warmth. Daily updates will be posted in facebook.com/hoopaholiccebu
