Horizontal Chest Hooping

Started this discussion. Last reply by Ashash Mar 26, 2011. 10 Replies 0 Likes

Chest hooping has proven to be my biggest obstacle on my road to flow.. heh. Just recently I finally managed to learn how to chest hoop (horizontally), but I can only do it while moving in circles…

"I hunch my back like a cat coughing up a hair ball, then thrust out my chest with my shoulders all the way back like an alien was bursting out of my ribcage. It's very bizarre looking at first, but the more I practice the less extreme the…"

"hmmm...the hoop slows down in rotation when you're spinning with it. when you're standing still, it seems to go much faster. are you moving your body fast enough to keep up with it? i personally rarely ever chest hoop without spinning…"

"Really focus on conforming your back and chest to the hoop as it goes around, I think caroleeena has a good video on chest hooping that helps explain it. Paddling can also help you get that little extra push to keep the hoop going when your not…"

"What helped me was actually focussing on my legs. If you shift the weight back and forth from leg to leg, digging your feet into the ground, you can keep that "rocking" momentum that will aid in the hoop staying up. Less work for your arms…"

"jumping? Doesnt jumping usualy make the hoop go vertical? I would say just keep practicing turning, try slowing down until ur almost at a stand still. You'll get there."

"jump? really? ok. I think this is the most talked about subject. I think someone posts a question about it every week! Me included. I'm getting better, but I would like not to twirl so much as well."

"Well when you horizontal hoop with your arms INSIDE the hoop, keep them as close to your body as possible. you should be grazing the sides of your body almost. also it helps, if you give it a little push with your right arm (assuming you hoop to the…"

Horizontal Chest Hooping

Chest hooping has proven to be my biggest obstacle on my road to flow.. heh. Just recently I finally managed to learn how to chest hoop (horizontally), but I can only do it while moving in circles with the hoop. I've been trying to chest hoop while standing in one spot but it's not working out so well.. the hoop just whacks against my arms and falls to the floor. wah. I was wondering if anyone had any tips/tricks/advice as to how to chest hoop without moving in circles with the hoop? See More
