The simple hula hoop has changed my life. The first time I saw a hula hooper, I was mesmorized - perhaps I'm easily entertained - but whatever, the vision of beauty stuck with me. I was looking for a core based workout that didn't involve boring situps or too tough on my joints and feet. Being a heavy woman, well, I wasn't feeling too sexy when my first hoop arrived in the mail.
My hoop sat for three months in a corner before I had the courage to really try it out without being too self-conscious. Still feeling a bit awkward, I gave it a go. About 20 minutes later, I was hooping around the waist without it falling with every other rotation. I kept going until I found my rhythm. And after about an hour or so, I quickly realized hoopin' could become so much more... I started to laugh at myself, relax and feel the music.
It's been over 5 years since that day and now I want to share this passion with others. If you're interested in exploring the art of hoopdance and just having some fun being in your body while getting a killer workout, then contact me for more info.
