Early in my hooping, I learned the benefit of opposite hooping:  I get new tricks easier in the opposite direction but I get good at them in my usual direction.  For my practice, I have a playlist and I try to change directions when the songs change. What usually happens, though, is I get in the groove and then 3 songs have gone by.  Then I change directions.

I spin to the right, but am currently working with the left.  Unfortunately, I didn't realize that my childhood accident of breaking my left clavicle left me limited.  I don't have the same range with the left shoulder as the right.  But, with practice, practice, practice, it is getting better.  I suggest don't use the dominant direction/side at all.  Make it a challenge.  Kind of like practicing with no hands, or only on body, or only isolations.  Its only a little suggestion, and it keeps it interesting.

Love & Light,

Eve
