“Hoops are fitness disguised as fun!” ~ Jackie Hesley, Founder of Hoop Trainer

Teaching hooping typically does more for the teacher than the student. We cant explain the bliss that rises up within ourselves when we see a new hooper “get it” for the first time. It’s truly the main purpose for who we are. Hoop Trainers are not the best hoopers. We don’t claim to be. [...]

Life is a Hoop

by: Patti Olguin My experience with hooping has done more that increase my core strength and give me a cool trick to bust out at parties. I believe most things are an issue of timing. Hooping and I found each other at just the right time. I needed to be in the right frame of [...]

Keeping Vitality in Your Life

By: Marci Javril Since I’m a dancer, I’m all about vitality and exploring movement on a daily basis. I stretch high to reach my paper supplies and I get down low to scrub the bathroom tiles. I’m always multi-tasking, aren’t you? Getting my “exercise” in practical ways on a daily basis. A boost in vitality [...]

by Laurel Fleming Richie Have you ever noticed that each season has its own special feel? Summer means leisure and fun, fall is busy with family and getting back to schedules, winter is a time to nest at home, and spring brings a sense of renewal. This time of year is one of my favorites, [...]

Hooping thru the hard times

Jackie — Tue, 12 Jun 2012 01:50:18 +0000

Gosh, sometimes life just kicks me in the buns, throws me on the ground and kicks me again. Does it you? For sure it’s not just me. I find that when I am feeling my worst due to major earthquakes in my world, I typically get stuck in the muck for a while until I [...]

Take off the Weight … by: Tish Merritt for FitBottomedGirls.com

Hula hooping may seem more like playtime than a workout, but if we know anything, it’s that you’re more likely to stick to a workout when it’s actually, you know, fun! And don’t get it twisted — working out with a hula hoop isn’t a walk (or a swivel) in the park… I met up [...]
