Hey, followers!
I'm a little late with the blog post this week, I know. It's Thursday. I usually update Mondays or whenever I feel like it, but foo. I'll have a bigger blog update tomorrow.
Right now I just wanted to give an update and post about a cool event going on here in Wichita, KS for the flow artists.
First of all, for those of you that are flow artists, there is a page called Wichita Burners for flow artists in the Wichita and surrounding areas. They not only invite burners, but other flow artists. So, all my hoopers, poi stars, and fire spinners, go hit up the group and become members. What's really neat is that they are hosting a festival later, which you can find at the following link:
Resonance is held September 27th through the 29th and is a festival/camp out. They are a Burning Man inspired group and this is their version for us midwesterners that can't make it to Burning Man, EDC, or any of the other big festivals.
PLEASE go out and support them if you can!
Speaking of flow arts, I hit up the Neon Dance at the River Festival on Friday and got some killer pictures.
(This is where I heard about Resonance.)

A lot of good hoopers showed up, a glover, and a few amazing fire spinners. Hopefully at my first Wichita Burners meeting, I'll be able to spin fire for the first time!
Fingers crossed.

Lastly, I'm gonna post how I did on the "5 Things Challenge".
1. Get Graphics Done-- 0/2
Haha. I was so busy with classes that this one didn't even come close to happening.
2. Hoop Dance 20 Minutes a Day-- 5/7
I did fairly well on this last week, but I feel like I could have done better.
3. Morning Yoga-- 5/7
Pretty much the same as hoop dance.
4. Take more pictures for the blog-- ?/7
Kind of?
5. Fix my sleep schedule-- 0/7
HAHAHA.

I discovered your blog through the cricket project. It sounds like you're into lots of cool stuff. I live in Honolulu now, but grew up on the mainland, where I actually studied hula and Polynesian dance from my half-Hawaiian grandmother. Maori dance, and especially poi was always my favorite. We had a Samoan fire dancer in our halau, too. It's so cool to see traditional Polynesian arts finding a place in mainstream culture.
