Hoop Dance

The Heard Museum, Phoenix, AZ, hosted the 2019 World Championship Hoop Dance Contest this weekend.

The art of hoop dance honors the cultural traditions from multiple Indigenous communities that first employed hoop dance as a healing ceremony.

Tricky shooting conditions, to be sure.... but a beautiful special occasion.
