Fabian

Fabian is very enthusiastic about hooping and excited about sharing this art form. His philosophy of hooping is that it is simply another way to be creative and have fun at the same time. Through his experiences with the martial arts, Fabian understands both the frustration and excitement students feel attempting something new and different. Fabian builds upon each move and uses encouragement with patience to build self confidence while also utilizing a bit humor to help new people feel more comfortable about trying the hoop.

Fabian’s background includes being a black belt in Tae Kwon Do. He is currently practicing Capoeira. In Capoeira, students after time are given a nick name. Fabian was given the name Casulo, which means ‘cacoon’ in English. He was given this name because he seeks to better himself in life and to also remind him to not become isolated and break out of his norms. Fabian hopes that if you have never tried hooping, or even if you haven't hooped since you were a kid, that you will strive to break out of your own norms, give it a chance, and try something new.
