  • 5/5 from Saori Fujiyama, attended Aug 2026: Robin is an excellent teacher! She is very kind and patient. I enjoyed learning from her very much. I feel like I had a meditation by moving my hands. I would like to take more of her classes in the future.
  • 5/5 from Lauren Bonomi, attended May 2025: I learned so much during this class including a new technique for making guacamole, tomatillo salsa, 4 embroidery stitches, and 3 detailing techniques. Robin was a fantastic instructor! She's clearly very passionate about embroidery and her enthusiasm radiated throughout the class. We got a solid start on our apron designs and left with all the tools we need to finish the aprons on our own. I highly recommend this class if you're interested in starting embroidery as a hobby or even just interested in the experience!
  • 5/5 from Taina Baker, attended Apr 2024: I booked Robin for my embroidery class. The place was easily accessible by subway. I felt pretty safe since the venue was secured by 24 hr door men service. Her place is spacious, neat and organized. As a teacher she was very personal and made me feel very comfortable since this was my first time. Robin added a special cooking touch to the class that was a nice ice breaker and a delicious snack to enjoy in class or take home. Her instructions during the embroidery session were easy to follow. Before I knew it I was was embroidering thanks to her. All materials were provided, with a goody bag to go home with. The value was worth it. I enjoyed myself and recommend this class.

HI, I’M ROBIN, FOUNDER OF THE HOOP.
The daughter of a Mexican mother and American father, I grew up in the Bronx New York. After a successful 38-year career in the fashion business, I found myself at a crossroads. I certainly wasn’t ready to retire and so I took baby steps in exploring my next adventure.
I traveled back to my childhood spent in Mexico City, stitching alongside my grandmother, mother, aunts and cousins. There we were, all together - the adults discussing the day, their lives, and the gossip. My cousins and I listened and took notes; not only fastidiously learning stitching, but life lessons, too.
This fiber has followed me on each adventure, every joy, and each disappointment and triumph … it is the one constant in my life.
Helping me sail through rough waters, my hoop has always been there. When the world outside is turbulent, my peace can be found inside the hoop. With each stitch, my troubles fade away, and I focus on the magic of creating something that didn’t exist before.
In founding The Hoop, I hope to bring together a circle of curious creators who want to explore fiber craft forms and techniques together.
