I would work on  just the plain horizontal rising sun first, and then once you've got that down, you can stall it on your thumb and hang out for awhile.

when i teach this i often teach it with a staff or stick first then move to hoops. I think it is a little bit easier to understand with staff then apply it to hoop. Maybe that might help you too. You can just use a broom or some thing instead,

yes yes if she spun flag, as i did in high school, she can help you tons, i have found that learning the staff and its plans helps to know what you can and cant do with a hoop it also helps with not hitting your self!!
