master the hula hoop

I’ve decided to take this one off the list; mostly because of the admiration I’ve been getting from my friend Adianne. She calls me a “hoopstress” ;0)

I still have much to learn about hooping but I’ve come far enough to be able to shout proudly that I am a hoop dancer!!

So far so good on this one. I made myself a huge hoop and learned several moves with it. Lately I’ve been using a small kids hoop, which is amazing because it used to be so hard to even keep up, let alone do any tricks with it.

I’m hoping to start a hoop dancing class in January.

I made my own hula hoop the other week, along with 3 others for friends. They are perfect; and VERY addicting. Once I pick it up I end up hooping for at least an hour. I’ve got bruises all over the arms and legs since it’s so heavy. Hopefully that won’t happen once I’m better, or I’ll build up some resistance to it.
