Ann Humphreys grew up in North Carolina and attended Barnard College, graduating with high honors. In 2000, after several years working as a reader for The Sun Magazine, Ann graduated from the acclaimed MFA Program for Writers at Warren Wilson College in Swannanoa, NC, where she studied the special sonic calculus that is poetry.
One day when she was 35 years old, fresh from a breakup and very depressed, Ann happened to catch sight of a cute guy doing what seemed to be a sacred dance with what appeared to be a large black hula-hoop. A few days later she was introduced to the hot hoop guy by her dear friend, the Cree artist Kimowan Metchewais, and her life changed forever.
Ann has worked as a waitress, editor, yoga teacher, mitigation investigator in death-penalty appeals cases, and most recently as a world-renowned instructor of flow-based hoopdance. Her new memoir, The Tao of Hoop: On the Transformational Practice of Hula-Hooping (Seriously, Though) is available through Amazon.
