My History
How would you describe yourself as a flagger? | Happy. Open. Honest. Joyous. |
What is it about flagging that you enjoy the most? | Getting in touch with myself. Sharing with other artists. |
How long have you been flagging? How did you get started? | Since December 2003. |
Who has inspired or taught you? | In no particular order: Phillip Bryan, Isa Issacs, Randy Earwood. |
Do you make your own sets? Can you describe what kind you make? | I’ve made my own silk flags, poi, and fans, although not recently. |
What are your favorite flagging quotes? | The truest help we have to give, is given by simply being ourselves. |
What advice do you give to beginning flaggers? | Try to practice several times a week, even if it is only for 10 minutes at a time. It really does help to flag and then sleep on it. |
