Miss Strange replied to the discussion 'Am I messing myself up for multi hooping?'
"I think you'll be fine when you switch to hoops the same size and weight. You could also try making the most of it and work with the heavier hoop in your non- dominate arm to build strength. :)    "

"I second this! When in public I always have extra in case you know- somebody wants to hoop! But kids around that age always seem to favor the 100psi 35-38ish range. 7 and under seem to go for the 1/2" ones."

Tilly Whirls replied to the discussion 'Proper Tubing O.D. and hoop sizes for 9-10 year old girls?'
"For older kids I use hoops between 35-38" in diameter, 3/4" 100psi, or 1/2" 125psi. They always seem to be good for a lot of different sized children. For smaller kids (6-8) I use about 32-35" 1/2" 125psi. "

Proper Tubing O.D. and hoop sizes for 9-10 year old girls?

I am teaching 3 hoop classes to entering 5th grade girls at a local school's music camp. I mostly teach adults so I don't have many children sized hoops. I am concerned some tubing is too heavy and my cause them to get bruises. I need the tubing to be heavy enough to learn beginner moves on but I don't want them to get hurt if a hoop goes flying towards them.This is a non-profit school fully funded by donations so, even though the school will be funding the making of these hoops I do want to…See More

"Defense Mechanisms" hooping Miss Strange

"Thank you! For me, ankle hooping depends on my hoop, heavier hoops hurt and leave bruises while really small hoops can be difficult. I like a light medium size hoop for that move. I can never decide what size I like most. lol"

I would love love to hoop together! I just have been so nervous because it's so new to me! Are hoopers very welcoming to new hoopers like me? I'm worried people might laugh or not help because im just just learning haha! I hope it's not the case! Everyone seems so lovely!
So yes please! I live about 15 minutes away from Cambridge! I will add you on facebook, it would be great if someone could help me out! Thankyou so much :)

I bet we do  know many of the same people. I only kind of know one spinner named Emily and she does fans mostly.  Do you ever make it out to any of the spinjams? Tomorrow is the only legal fire spin/spinjam practice at Tuffs campus. Look for Facebook group Medford spinjam if you want particulars.

http://www.facebook.com/Harlequin.Playshop?sk=info has all the information under the album FLY with details.  The ones I am willing to share anyhow hehe. I posted a thread on here an in the aerial group but noone was interested. It costs roughly 300 with supplies and labor and months of work and research. Obviously it becomes more cost efficient with bulk orders. I sell them starting at 380 and then any customization after that. Shipping is pricey to outside the midwest but still puts my lyras less expensive than most on the internet with a quality that cant be riveled. I am able to share this fortunate good luck of friending a man who owns the 7000 machine it takes to bend the metals. This is what allows me to sell them so cheap. You can read all about on my page. Feel free to LIKE and share if you feel compelled. My lil Kansas business needs all the hoopcity love I can get. Happy Hooping friend. First locate a metal fabricator.

I'm about to have my 2nd hoopiversary and I was think back on the 2 years I've been hooping.  mmm.... where to begin....

Its been great learning everything I now know (or think I know lol). The first year I was in a fire troop and gigged around the north east. It was awesome I got to meet a whole new crowd of spinners, bands and artist. But this year was hard. hooping really helped me through it even though I went longish periods of time without hooping.
