Once reserved to the West Coast and college campuses, the hippie has descended upon mainstream America. Oftentimes seen in the prone position, these crunchy, groovy folk get sporty sometimes. Here are the top ways wookies break a sweat, other than at a “Cheese” show.

1)
More than anything, hippies love to dance. While technically not a
sport, the reality that ballroom dancing is an Olympic sport, makes the
case. Often times referred to as “noodling,” this dancing can be
described as flailing one’s arms about, while doing the Axl Rose slither.

2)
One of the many times hippies gather in a circle; hacky-sack games
usually feature a dreaded guy, and at least one ex-soccer washout.
Beloved for its simplicity, and opportunity for individual artistry, if
you smell patchouli, you can find a hacky-sack.

3)
Bereft of the dress code and etiquette of real golf, disc golf offers
the hippie the chance for a beautiful walk unspoiled by a white ball.
Advanced discheads carry a driver, fairway and greens discs, along with
usual accoutrements favored by the granola crowd.

4)
Hippies love to hike, whether it’s to the next show, or to the
campsite. Not necessarily in a competitive fashion, hippies often take
their time strolling through nature appreciating God’s green earth.
5)
Come upon a gathering of these sorts and you are certain to find a
poorly dressed chick hula hooping. Not just dancing with tube around
your waist, it is a beautiful form of self-expression. If you believe
that, you crunch with the best of them.

6)
Ultimate Frisbee nearly misses the leafy-ness needed for this list, but
its ubiquity on college campuses stamps it, hippie-approved. More
aggressive, and needing teamwork, unlike many of these solitary
pursuits, Ultimate is for the alpha hippie.
