Hey there. Wondering if anyone had any pointers when it comes to the vertical step through. I seem to be having a hard time making it look right. I can't seem to get the hoop to stall right or…

"Love this. Just gave me so much creative inspiration so thank you!! When are you coming to visit California?"
Megan of *From the Hip replied to the discussion 'Vertical Step Through'"I found starting with an isolation instead of spinning the hoop around your hand most helpful when I was learning this move. Then you don't have so much timing to account for because the hoop is a big hole for you the whole time. Then you can…"
Tangled Macrame replied to the discussion 'Vertical Step Through'"Since you're holding the hoop in your hands throughout the move, you can slow it way down and practice while holding, rather than spinning the hoop. That will help you get the motion of both the hoop and your body down. Point your toes and grin…"
Lisa Potums replied to the discussion 'Vertical Step Through'"I learned this trick from Safire: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrT51M9a38U , but recently Babz made a slow motion tutorial, which it REALLY helpfull: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_dLPFQClNZQ ."
Andrea Mason replied to the discussion 'Vertical Step Through'"I learned it after someone told me to imagine shoving the hoop up my booty and pulling it out the other side! Sounds crazy but after I thought of it that way it worked!"
circularlogic replied to the discussion 'Vertical Step Through'"Not my favorite move since I'm tallish & like little hoops, but the trick for me was making sure that my hands touch (or nearly so) for the pass-off. That's what keeps the hoop from going wonky. Also as with all vertical hooping, the…"
"make sure you have the hoop high enough. for awhile i was scraping it on the floor and i just couldnt do it/didnt look right. then i would put the hoop higher and i learned that that was better. a lot of videos say something about your hand going…"

Kimberly Dawn replied to the discussion 'Chest Angles'"I don't know if you're familiar with yoga at all, but the "cat" and "cow" moves helped me out with this greatly.
Think about arching your back when the hoop rolls around to your front hitting your chest, and rounding…"
Tangled Macrame replied to the discussion 'Chest Angles'"Yes, the motion is very exaggerated, mostly in the knees and shoulders when earth-angle. Sky-angle it's very much in the chest, though hopping helps because it pops the chest. If my feet are planted, I back bend a little and pop my chest up…"
circularlogic replied to the discussion 'Chest Angles'"With all angle hooping you have to remember you're mainly working against gravity. You really have to exaggerate your upward push, then gravity pretty much takes care of the downward part. It really helps to get your legs in on the action,…"

Hey there. I'm new to hoopcity.ca but am a huge fan already!! For the past couple of months I have been struggling with my chest angles. Every time I lean down when my hoop is at my chest, it seems to fall down. I was wondering if anyone could offer me any advice.
