Well it's about 1 month into my hooping experience and I can definitely see the improvement from my first video! I'm much more comfortable with my left hand (although not PERFECTLY comfortable xD) and I drop them a whole hell of a lot less. My cats are thankful for this. This weekend I started practicing isolations, the toss with my right hand, and slowing everything down. I realized from watching my previous videos that I was spinning way too fast! I'm also beginning to work on…

Well I had my big 'debut' - if that's what you want to call it :P

As soon as I get my LEDs tomorrow I am going to make a video of what I've learned so far.

As of now, I can do these…
