Balance/Strength While One-Leg Hooping
Started this discussion. Last reply by Megan of *From the Hip May 18, 2010. 4 Replies 0 Likes
So I have been practicing my one-leg hooping as of late. I can get my leg in and out of the hoop with relative ease - however, I find my issue definitely comes with balance. The number one reason my…

Jessica replied to the discussion 'Troo hoops vs. hoopnotica'
Hoopnotica's hoops are made in China. I don't know about Troo Hoops (maybe someone from their company can speak to that?) but I would rather support a company that keeps its labor in the states!
Jessica replied to the discussion 'So what do you ladies wear under those little skirts ?'
Agreed, I wear dance shorts as well under almost everything when I hoop, and I LOVE them. You can find them at discount dance supply usually cheaper than your local dance store (unless you're like me and want them RIGHT THEN, haha). My favorite…

Jessica commented on the blog post 'Comments and ruined bliss'
Here comes my feminist rant, so just fyi:
No. Street harassment is just that - harassment. You all are a whole lot nicer than I would have been! If I was hooping outdoors and some guys started to cat-call me and make comments about my body, I…

Andrea, could you possibly send me a sample of the waiver you use? (as long as it is not copyrighted, that is)
Andrea Mason replied to the discussion 'Fitness Instructor Insurance'
I'm a fitness instructor with no insurance. I'm certified through Fitour and all i've ever been required to do is have clients fill out a waiver.
Stellar Sunshine* replied to the discussion 'Fitness Instructor Insurance'
I too am looking into fitness instructor insurance. The total quote I got from IDEA was $275 Where did you get $189?
Jessica replied to the discussion 'the splits'
Okay, let me share some of my experience from my ballet years...lots of good advice here! The wall advice is good, for center splits, but if you want front splits you can also try hiking your leg up on the wall as far as it will go and holding it…

- Hey girl, I'm glad you found me! I ended up talking to Luna from Kaivalya for a bit on Sunday morning at hooping. Those girls are so amazing, but very down to earth. I glad we were stalkers together.

Tangled Macrame said… - I love, love, love my 125 PSI- 1/2" hoops, Jessica! They're so slender, they're kind of hard to grip at first and I'm always flipping them in weird directions. But they're FANTASTIC for off-body work! Great for working with twins or multiple hoops too. +

Stefani said… - A few helpful hints on managing a low budget hoop addiction: Call a local landscape or plumbing company and ask if you can recycle their scraps of pvc (usually their scraps = a nice size hoop), use old shirts, pants or sheets with a cool pattern, cut them into strips and use to decorate the hoop. You will need some tape, but the skinny 1/4 inch is only $1/roll on identi-tape, or you could use glue I suppose......but a pack of 15 fun colors is $20 and goes a LONG way, especially if it's just used for accenting fabric hoops. Last hint of hte day is leg warmers, if you go to a thrift store and find a coat, cut it at the shoulders and add fun fabric (the wrist part will go above your halves, with the shoulders flaring around your feet. Fun and funky! Have a great day! Happy hooping :)
