Why do you want to be an IFAD Ambassador?
To be a part of this amazing event!
If you were to become an IFAD Ambassador, what kind of event do you imagine hosting?
Christel and I will be organizing events throughout IFAD weekend. We plan to kick off IFAD with an all-day flow jam accompanied by DJs, followed possibly with a day of workshops on Sunday the day after. We may do workshops over both days, depending on how many Ambassadors join us in Geneva next year. We are currently looking into potential locations around the canton to host our event(s).
Tell us a bit about yourself, and share your flow story with us!
A firm believer in the hula hoop's transformative power, Nathalie 'Naty' is the other half of Hoop Fitness Genève and the Co-Organizer of International Flow Arts Day Geneva. This Geneva native is a boy-mom, an autodidact-hooper, an Afro Hippie Hoops sponsored hooper, and a certified Hoop Love Coach. She began her hoop journey in 2018, when a friend gifted her a hula hoop, introducing her to the sport. Falling in love instantly with the activity and unable to find classes locally. She turned to the internet, using videos to learn her newfound passion. Her desire to share the joy found by hula hooping with others, motivated her to become a certified instructor in 2019.
