    I LOVE what she is wearing! I got my 1st hoop, made by my best friend, a couple of weeks ago and I can't get enough hooping!! SOOO much fun and a great workout.

    She does look like a belly dancer, I love this video,
    I just started hooping 3 weeks ago, and I'm so happy to hoop just regular now.
    I really like to learn those tricks

    Thanks girl! A friend of mine here in SD works for ACE and asked me to be apart of their newsletter this month. Of course I agreed and am incredibly happy with how it came out!! Yay for spreading hoop love to a larger community!!

    I have this awesome trick that see's the hoop go from the arm to the leg. So you start off with it round your hand, slowly lay on the floor, then switch from arm to leg. It's difficult to reverse it, but it feels great for your leg muscles.

    thanks for this! it helped me learn how to teach beginner lessons

  • @Pslm91v14n15
    @Pslm91v14n15 12 лет назад

    great! it took me about an hour of constant trying to get one to stay around my waist, and about.. 3-ish weeks to get it to stay around my shoulders. I had a 38" PEX hoop I made with electrical tape for grip. Just keep trying, and what can help is to just keep trying with either small breaks, or even a day between attempts. Turning with it helps so very much as well. Some people it takes months to get it.

    Good grief I am so excited to learn how much calories you can do hula hooping. I have been doing it so much and wasn't sure if I was getting any benefits. So excited to know it is actually good for me. Thanks ladies! You are all beautiful!

  • @AlphamaleclinicsAu
    @AlphamaleclinicsAu 11 лет назад +3

    Start with the basic moves until you feel comfortable, then step up to more advanced ones, mixing and matching for your own personal head-to-toe tone-up. Do any combination of moves for 30 minutes (you’ll burn 150 to 250 calories per workout) three times a week for four weeks and you’ll lose 3 to 6 inches all over your body. Yep, belly included!

    How odd, as a kid I was never any good but as an adult I'm so much better. It's great and really gets your heart going if you do it for 40mins+.

  • @BrokenRoses97
    @BrokenRoses97 12 лет назад

    I'm chubby (5'6 and 166 pounds) and I'm a hoop dancer :) Also, I have a girl friend who is over 200 pounds and she hula hoops quite well and can do a couple tricks. It took her a while to get the motion down, though. It's an AMAZING exercise, and I would definitely recommend it! :)

  • @cosmogurl220
    @cosmogurl220 14 лет назад

  • @SToyaholic
    @SToyaholic 13 лет назад

    @linette321 have you tried a weighted hoop? They are a lot easier than the childrens ones. Don't tense up when you're hooping, just relax and let your knees limp up.

  • @itscat92
    @itscat92 12 лет назад

    Well these people use bigger hoops than the ones you would have had in elementary school. They say that the bigger the hoop, the easier it is to use & only advanced people use the light tiny ones. Its because the bigger the hoop, the slower it spins around you, and is easy to control. They also say to do a rocking back and forth motion, instead of spinning your waist in a circle. Hope that helps.

  • @itscat92
    @itscat92 12 лет назад

    Yeah I know ideally kids that age shouldnt be worried about that stuff, but alot of them do anyway. I was going to mention the whole "wait untill your older thing", but I just figured she's probably heard it from so many people already. Plus there is limited space in these boxes, so its sometimes hard to word things properly and make them fit. When I mentioned that some guys like small breasts & the thing about giving birth, I did mean for when she's older.

  • @minalucy1992
    @minalucy1992 12 лет назад

    Yeah, I was wondering about that. Because, well, I have quite the belly (urgh, can one say it like that?) and my muscles in that area are not very powerful or anything. I've always been at least chubby, so I was wondering if that was why I wasn't able to hoop in elementary school. Never tried it since, but maybe I'll give it another go. It doesn't seem as much fun as skipping rope though. :D

  • @AngelBellaMe
    @AngelBellaMe 11 лет назад

    This is an amazing good video. Thanks a lot for sharing it with us. I am new to hula hooping and I have not make it yet. I usually do not give up. But it has been a week and I was only able to do two circular motions around my waist without it falling down. How much I need to keep it fix and still ? Thak You.

  • @alsaxon
    @alsaxon 14 лет назад +1

    Did she specify how much weight to start with? I see 1lb to 4lb? I am a beginner and can't hula hoop. So want to make sure I start with the right weight as not to discourage myself anymore.

    Do you hoop only in one direction? I am trying in both but I am not very good from left to right.

  • @itscat92
    @itscat92 12 лет назад

    @Agent007998 Also, my Aunt who was stick thin at the time, had 3 kids, and her daughter who is also stick thin had a baby too. (They are naturally thin, and not unhealthy)

    @Agent007998 I am 21 years old and I have seen A LOT of gymnasts in my lifetime. I can tell you that it is NOT true that gymnasts have small breasts and can't have kids. Those things about your body have nothing to do with whether or not you are into gymnastics. Gymnastics are actually very good for you! I hate to tell you this but truthfully, your friend is probably jealous that you get to take a gymnastics class and she doesn't. Everything will be fine! Hope this helps. ~Lauren

    • @kripag6511
      @kripag6511 9 лет назад +2

      +Rae-Dio The size of the hoop matters, I bought a large one coz I couldn't hoop on the smaller one.. also, i tried keeping my knees slightly bent and not swing my hips too much.. If rocking back and forth doesn't work, try going side to side and find a rhythm :) good luck
