World Championship Hoop Dance Contest

The 25th Annual World Championship Hoop Dance Contest was held at the Heard Museum grounds in Phoenix, Arizona. Native dancers from throughout North America competed. My focus was the contestants, whether competing or awaiting their turns and the awesome colours. Thank you to the wonderful dancers, your skills and traditions.
