Remember the hula hoop? Well, the “Hula Hooping” you remember has been reborn; reincarnated into “Hooping”! Hooping is a fun artistic workout, allowing you to focus on standing tall, engaging the core deeply, and building muscle throughout the body. Beginning with a warm up, techniques such as on and off body, utilizing arms, legs and other parts while you hoop to get the best workout possible will be demonstrated. It revitalizes your mind, body and spirit, and helps gain self-confidence with a smile.

Artist Statement
While growing up I was surrounded by dogs, cats and other small companions who inspired my love for animals. They never judged me and always gave me their unconditional love. I remember especially our dog Kane, a rottweiler, whose love for our family was the inspiration that lead me to specialize in animal portraiture. It is my way of paying him back for all the joy he brought to my life.
It’s a real pleasure to receive a call from another animal owner who wants to honor a living pet, or commemorate a beloved companion with a portrait that captures the essence of their personality.
My representational realistic style allows me to create a true reflection of their pet’s personality. Working with mostly pencil, charcoal, and oil paints, I strive to reproduce each play of light on the animal’s face, in it’s eyes, or on its coat until I have achieved a true likeness. My goal is to reflect the animal’s personality in a composition that gives it the respect and honor it deserves.
