From a young age, Carla Snow has been in love with all kinds of music and focused much of that passion into her practice as a classically trained flutist. In 2008, she stepped into her first hoop at a summer music festival and was introduced to a new way of connecting with the music to create both a visual and emotional experience. Training with world-renowned performer and educator, Sandra “SaFire” Sommerville, as well as a number of instructors from San Francisco to Melbourne, she has taken her hooping from a fun hobby to a full time passion.

Through teaching, performing, and handcrafting hoops, Carla shares the joy she finds in expressive movement with those around her.
