Greetings,

​

My name is Nettie.  I am a homeschooling mother, modern-day hula hoop artist, hoop/dance instructor, choreographer and the artistic director of the Nevaeh Dance Circus.

​

​My deep love for these plastic circles began in 2010 when a member of the Boston Hoop Troupe taught me my first hula hoop trick. 

​

For over a decade now hula hooping as brought me so much joy and happiness! As a result, I’ve spent countless hours transforming this recreation activity into an art form and profession for myself.  

​

I hold the (unofficial) World Record for most consecutive days of hula hooping at 730 days! 

(January 1st, 2021 - December 31st 2022)  That's two full years of hula hooping every single day!

​

I called this project #hulahoopingeverydamnday with the only rule being, that I dedicated some amount of time EVERY SINGLE DAY to my art (even if only a minute). I then posted a clip of this time online to my social media account @hoopwithnettieloops each day.
