Weekly Classes Postponed

Due to low attendance in the summer months we are going to hold off on our weekly Sunday night hoop dance classes until further notice. Weekend schedules during the summertime in Minnesota fill up quickly for everyone and the low demand hasn’t been quite worth the effort in the past month or so with everything else we haveContinueContinue reading “Weekly Classes Postponed”

The Best Guerrilla Marketing Idea Ever

If I could think of the best guerrilla marketing campaign, it would most definitely involve hula hoop dancers. People flock to watch mezmerizing hoop dance performers. And not only do they hang out to watch, they frequently record video or take pictures while they stand around and gawk. The other major benefit is how mobile we are. Hoops goContinueContinue reading “The Best Guerrilla Marketing Idea Ever”
