I was at a festival and saw a huge hula hoop wrapped in cloth sitting in the middle of a field. I had hula-hooped as a child but hadn't seen one since. I was drawn to it; it made me smile just remembering what it felt like to hoop. When I stood in the center of it and picked it up, it was heavy! When I started hooping with this heavy hoop and felt immediately the impact on my stomach and waist, I was hooked. I had to have one.
No, never! I always listened to records and made up dances. I was a real tomboy. I was either outside with my dog or inside dancing with my sister. I was a cheerleader starting in third grade for West Henderson youth football, and cheered through my senior year in high school. I danced with Wilkins Dance studio and Fletcher School of Dance. Lissa Wilkins was a great catalyst who taught me to face things that made me scared, and I would find that maybe I was good at it.

Hula hoops became a big thing at music festivals. The String Cheese Incident used to throw out hula hoops for everyone to use while they were playing. It soon came to be as much a part of their show to watch hoopers move to the music as well as watching the band.
Hoop dance is also a sacred part of Native American life. The hoop represents the circle of life, with no beginning and no ending. Native American hoopers begin with one hoop and keep adding and weaving the hoops into formations that represent our journey through life. Each added hoop represents another thread in the web of life.
There is so much to learn about hoop dancing, so many nuances and different ways to move your body that keep the hoop revolving around you, that you always have room to learn and grow stronger. Since you have to push and pull into the hoop to keep it level, it creates muscles on your body that you didn't even realize you had.
The first night that I got my hoop at Bele Chere, I hooped for the entire CD of Led Zeppelin 3 and had bruises all over my sides and hips the next day. It is normal to bruise because you are using muscles that have been sitting dormant. Once the bruises go away, you find that hooping gives you a rocking body. It also provides you with a skill that you can add onto, and stay fit and happy doing for the rest of your life.
I was obsessed with hula hooping, and had taught everyone who came to my house how to use my hoop. I had gotten really good at helping people figure out why they couldn't keep it spinning around their waist. The joy I got from seeing someone learn to hoop who said they could never hoop as a child was indescribable.
I started searching for certification courses that could teach me how to help others learn to hoop. I discovered a company out of Venice, Calif., called Hoopnotica that had certification courses all over the country. The closest to here was Washington, D.C., and I had two months to prepare. They sent course materials, a training video and a breakdown travel hoop that I could carry on the plane.
I went there for three days of training and on the final day took a certification test, and here I am three years later. Still growing, still learning, but mostly loving to share something that is the best workout I have ever experienced.
The great thing about the adult-size hoops is that they can be used to keep your body in alignment and give you proper form for optimum stretching and conditioning. It's like a personal gym that you can carry everywhere! We begin class with yoga-based stretching using our hoops to keep our posture and form for the best results. Then we get the blood going with some conditioning moves that emulate hooping tricks. I have found that this gives you results that you want from a workout, until you are familiar with how to make the hoop move up and down your body. The hoop goes where your body moves it.Learning to open your chest, and stretch your back moves the hoop to your chest and shoulders. Tiny, fast movements back and forth with your legs makes the hoop revolve around your thighs. Small circles made with your hips keeps the hoop revolving around your hips. ...
Since these moves are foreign to most new hoopers, we concentrate on keeping the hoop going around our waist to begin with. Then stepping from side to side begins our journey into dance and movement while hooping. We also use the hoop overhead and around the body to strengthen the back and arms. Waist hooping does wonders for your core! If you want to lose weight, hula hoop during every commercial break ... and watch the weight drop off!
The rhythm of the hoop is calming and reduces stress, and at the same time gives an incredible cardiovascular workout. The two constants in my class are that people are smiling, and breathing hard. Sometimes from laughing (at each other, and themselves, or me), but mostly from the great workout their hearts and bodies are getting.
Not at all! I have hoops for all sizes, all ages. I am able to offer individualized attention to students who need help before, during and after class. If I have new hoopers, I can work with them while the regular students are waist hooping and toning their core in their own little circle. It's like golf; you compete with yourself, and have to be careful not to compete against yourself.
The warm-up is designed to teach you how to stand and move for optimum hooping success, but it also strengthens you even if you already know how to hoop. I am offering a special class for more advanced hoopers that will focus more on flow and intermediate moves in the very near future, based on scheduling conflicts that need to be ironed out. If you are a hooper already and have reached a plateau, or are just looking for a place and a space to hoop, please contact me!
My hula hoop offers me a dance partner when I don't have one. It makes me happy when I'm feeling blue. It has helped me feel good about wearing a two-piece swim suit. It is like getting a chance to play and laugh, yet the results are undeniable. My body is more fit than when I was in high school, and I am on a journey to be the best person I can be, inside and out.
This peaceful little object of joy has helped me become a better dancer and has helped me to bring joy to other lives by showing them they are capable of so much more than they realize. Hooping benefits you on so many physical and emotional levels. It helps with your posture, your balance, tones you all over, and gives an incredible cardiovascular workout. Emotionally, it boosts your self-esteem, your creativity, reduces stress, and elevates your mood. I love it.
The first thing I always hear people say is that they couldn't hoop as a child, and that they can't hoop now. Those lightweight kid-sized hoops are too light and small in diameter to revolve around adult-sized waists. The hoops I provide are large-diameter hoops that are made from heavier pipe so they revolve slower, and almost anyone can keep it going. I saw a grizzly bear hula hooping on the Internet, and they aren't comfortable on two feet. If a grizzly bear can do it, I think pretty much anyone can.
Yes, I make all my own hoops. I make them from irrigation pipe and decorate them with special hooper tape that I order online. You can wrap hoops in any kind of material. I've used suede, cloth and tape to cover my hoops, but they are cool just leaving them black as well. When I first started making hoops, they were pretty dull. I didn't know what I was doing, but I thought they were great! My hoop design has grown as I have grown as a hooper.
I now have begun making mini-hoops to use for upper body workout. I have only been doing it a few weeks, but I can see the difference in the cut in my arms. I have been offering this workout at the end of our normal workout, and everyone has been happy with the results.
I do carry hoops with me all the time. If someone says that they can't hula hoop, I am usually able to find a hoop in my car that is just their size to show them that they can hoop! It's always the same look of dread and fear when they see me running towards them with a hula hoop in hand. However, that look changes to satisfaction and joy, sometimes even surprise when they listen to a few basic instructions and start spinning it around their waist.
