The other week I decided to start hooping after watching a few videos by the Hooptown Hotties on Youtube. I bought a beginner’s hoop from HoopSpin - a very cute 42″ in ‘funky leopard print’ - and started practising right away.
Before my training hoop arrived, I had never even been able to hula hoop. I’m not kidding: I have the worst co-ordination in the world so I’d never been able to do it as a child. Now, after just two hours of practising I can hula hoop, lasso and perform the escalator.
It’s so, so much fun and so I thought I’d share my new found love for hooping with you guys as well as some beginners tutorial in case you’d like to come along on this hooping journey with me or if you’d like to share some of your own favourite moves!
