“Without the rain, there would be no rainbow.” – Gilbert K. Chesterton
I love this quote. It’s a friendly reminder that, on the other side of hard times, there’s usually something beautiful waiting to be discovered.
As for the hoops… I created this custom rainbow 🌈 set for a mother and her two daughters. I’m packing them up and shipping them off to Long Beach, CA today.
And I’ve got this style up in the ETSY Shop (link in bio).

Happy Valentine’s Day!🦄💖
Today, I’m sending a message of self love to the single gals and guys as well as those in unique situations (military couples, partners in long distance relationships, etc).
Days like today can feel especially lonely when you spend it solo, which is why it’s important to remember that self love is really the most important kind of love. When we learn to love ourselves, we become our best selves.
Knowing what you want/ deserve, doing more of the things that bring you joy, prioritizing your health & wellness… all of these things help you become the optimal version of YOU. In doing so, you’ll have more love to give.
So today - I encourage you to do something kind for YOU. Hit the gym. Take yourself out for a meal. Buy some flowers for that magical person staring back at you in the mirror. ✨ Enjoy a luxurious bubble bath.
I’m doing all of these things because I’m worth it, I deserve it, and I love me. You’re worth it, you deserve it, and I hope you love you too. ❤️

Happy Localtopia!!! ☀️
This is the place to be, if you’re in the ‘Burg today. Localtopia takes place at Williams Park from 10am to 5pm and is a celebration of our city’s small businesses.
Live music, loads of killer vendors/ creatives, activities for the kids, beer & bubbly tents for the grownups, fitness demos and so much more.

Throwback to 4 years ago when I hit my goal weight… 💪🏻🏋️♀️
I keep these pics for motivation & inspiration because, if I did it then, I can do it again. I’m pretty darn close too…
I’ve dropped 15 lbs since Thanksgiving and have been totally committed to my workouts and diet. And even though I’m a fitness instructor myself, there’s a ton of value in having a coach where someone else holds you accountable. With this idea in mind, I started working with a personal trainer in Jan. And yea… weight training helps. A lot. So does showing up for yourself on a daily basis and prioritizing your health and fitness. It’s not selfish. It’s self love.
Speaking of self love (and what a bumpy road it can be)…
When I originally posted these photos, I remember being self conscious about them but I shared the pics anyway. I’ve never liked showing off my stomach. Growing up, I was always jealous of my friends with petite figures and small waists. No matter how much I exercised, I could never seem to reach the unrealistic goals that I’d set for myself because my body simply isn’t designed that way.
But I’ve come to realize that what we see in the mirror isn’t always a reflection of reality.
Sometimes, a past mindset infiltrates the present, and it’s important to notice when a negative thought is just that - and nothing more.
Now, all these years later - I’m finally learning to love myself exactly as I am. I may not have a 24 inch waist, but I have a strong, muscular core. I may not ever see 125 lbs on the scale, but I see a healthy number that’s better suited to my height and body type. I may never be a great runner. But I can hula hoop like a ‘mo ‘fo and I’m pretty good at boxing too. 🥊 And I may not be at my goal weight right now, in this moment. But I’m on my way and making great progress. So there’s still reason to celebrate. 🎉
It’s amazing when we reach our goals - but the journey of getting there is where the real magic happens. Loving and appreciating ourselves each step of the way makes the reward that much sweeter. 💕

Happy Saturday Friends! I’m here at the @saturdaymorningmarket.stpete until 2pm today with lots of new handmade creations. 🌸 Make it a great weekend you guys!
Today’s Throwback Thursday celebrates 10 years of @hoolafitness 🎉🧡 This is a capture from our very first Hoola-Fit Teacher Training (circa 2012).
I co-created the Hoola-Fit Teacher Training Curriculum alongside my dear friend and fellow hoop dance rock star @monkeydustcasandra
The ACE approval is something that we worked very hard to earn back in 2012. To do so, we both became ACE certified in group fitness before submitting our 120 page Hoola-Fit Teacher Training manual to ACE’s continuing educational board for review.
Since that time, Casandra has gone on to focus on @flowfests along with a million other professional AND passion projects - inspiring countless people along the way.
I’m proud to say that I’ve kept Hoola-Fit current with ACE’s high standards for a decade, including bringing the course online just prior to the pandemic (thank God for that synchronic timing!)
Hoola-Fit.com is the only ACE approved hoop fitness training in the United States. This helps our growing network of hoop dance teachers gain recognition and legitimacy in the fitness world while simultaneously getting hired at gyms and fitness centers nationwide.
So, I’m celebrating the fact that Hoola-Fit is 10 years old, and the course is, once again, in ACE approved status for 2022 🤗🎉🧡

I’m sorry to share that Hoola-Fit Class at Sunken Gardens is canceled on Tuesday February 1, along with our monthly flow jam at the Pier.
I’m laid at up home, nursing myself back to health after a pretty miserable 24 hours. Hoping tomorrow is better but I’m certain it will be a couple days until I’m back to my healthy, hooping self. It’s definitely not COVID but rather food poising or a stomach bug that’s made it’s way through the family. Mom, sis and step dad are all sick too.
Thanks so much for your understanding, and stay safe out there you guys. Flu season is here along with some nasty new stomach bugs on top of what we’re already dealing with pandemic-wise. I wish good health and happiness for all.
Well, that’s a wrap. 🏈🏴☠️❤️
Thank you Street Laced Marketing & Promotions, Inc - for another great season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. We love our pre-game performance fam and can’t wait to do it again next fall! #bucsbeach #RaiseTheFlags #GoBucs
Miss CoCo is a ‘lil lady who knows exactly what she wants.
“Oh no, mama. We can’t buy a hoop from the store. We need to get one from Miss Abby.” 🥰
I made a selection for her to choose from and she picked out a silver rainbow sparkle hoop. She also showed up to the @saturdaymorningmarket.stpete today in a rad jacket that totally matched my booth. Love this gal! 💕
