Amanda (Mondo) Hutchinson-Wylde

New to Luminate 2013 we are excited to add Mondo to the JPTZ crew. A multi- talented artist and hooper Mondo has been playing hula hoop for 2 ½ years, and been involved in fire performance for nearly 2. She has performed in front of many differing crowds from family festivals to urban music events and everything in between.  

Mondo's workshops will include:

For the young hoopers: Come hula hoop and play games with Mondo! Not only will we be learning how to play with a hoop, we will also use these new skills to play some fun hula-inspired games! Kids are the future. Lets make them hoopers! :)

Beginners Fire Hoop: Fire Hoops can be a little intimidating, so this workshop is aimed at those who have hooping experience and would like to take it to the next level. It will teach fire safety, but also provide help in crossovers between hoop and fire hoop. It is important to have a workshop such as this to keep the art safe but also take the intimidating edge off fire hooping.

Hand Hoop: This workshop will be purely off-body hooping. It is aimed at those who are already pretty competent at body hooping, or those who just want to do something a little different. It will focus on isolations, breaks, flowers, elbow hooping and transitions.
