Over the weekend Evangelina Macias led a Hoop Dance workshop, which was hosted by the Ohketeau Cultural Center.

Eva provided all of the hoops for participants and at the end of the workshop all participants were able to take a hoop home. Eva discussed the history of Hoop Dance and recognized the mentors who have guided her the intricacies of this traditional dance style. Eva shared everything from how to make hoops to a variety of tricks that can be done with 1, 2 or 3 hoops.

Attendees ages ranged from toddlers to Elders and it was wonderful to see this intergenerational mix enjoying this workshop together. Everyone was provided with the necessary support to be successful and had fun laughing and learning as a community.
