Five-time Teen World Hoop Dance Champion Nakotah LaRance performs in the Atrium, spinning and entwining his arms and legs with hoops that appear to pass through his body. The hoop is recognized for its powers to promote healing and vision, and has for centuries been used by tribal groups across North American in special ceremonies.

Today, intertribal gatherings celebrate hoop dancing with competitions that explore the intricate and challenging dance form.
