Session Two - Moving Through the Hoop

   

Hi Hoopers!

In this lesson we'll learn several different ways to move through the hoop. Jumping, stepping and ducking into the hoop will allow you to mix up your movements, find fun ways to transition from off body to on body hooping and move the hoop in large, fast movements.

Much love,
SaFire

I'm really struggling with the vertical step through. I can do it reallllllllly slowly, but when i bring it up to a steady pace, I can't seem to get my torso and leg through the hoop without getting all tangled-  any suggestions?

I haven't posted for a very long time, but I have something worth sharing.  In the last couple of years, I have advanced enough to start teaching and I absolutley love my classes.  All my students are wonderful its the most favorite part of my week. Through a very unfortunate series of events, every hoop I own, including my hoops for students, were taken and no longer in my possession.
