About

Spin Matsuri began in 2009 as a weekend retreat for hoopers in Japan. It’s expanded to include monthly hoop jams, camps, picnics and other events for everyone interested in the flow arts. Find out more about:

We are on Facebook and Twitter, too. Be sure to friend or follow us for all the latest updates and events.

Acknowledgements

These days, Spin Matsuri is a solo project, but it wasn’t always so. I am grateful to the teachers, organisers, volunteers who have made events happen, and to everyone who has joined in our programs. Here are some of the many people who have been key in Spin Matsuri’s activities:  Deanne Love, Masao Tamaoki, Madoka Konishi, Heather Minowa, Nick Wong, Nik Silwerski, Ayumi, Caroleeena, Jewelz Hanssens, Lisa Hanssens, Bunny Hoop Star, Beth Lavinder and Mix.

Spin Matsuri is currently run by Kristen McQuillin and based in Tokyo.
