An open letter

An open letter to all hoopers, and to those that inspired my journey;

I first discovered the hula hoop at a music festival with a friend. I once told this story in a public speaking class in college. I started it like this: "How a Hula Hooping Fairy saved my life, in more ways than one". To this day that story holds more true than ever.

I love to hula hoop !

2011 My hoop story began with the Ozora festival in Hungary. I was sitting on a hill and saw a girl playing with the hula hoop and she was making a simple isolation. It looks like magic.

After the festival season I was sitting at home and watched thousands of hula hoop videos. Lisa Lottie became my biggest idol.

Meet Lizzie !

Hi!

I’m Lizzie and I live in London. My hooping journey began at a festival in Dorset, England in Autumn 2013. The performers in a circus tent encouraged my sister and I to try out their hoops. We both loved it, but work and the winter got in the way. Then for Christmas, my sister gave me a beautiful silver sparkly travel hoop and signed us up to a hoop tricks class with the amazing ‘Anna the Hulagan’.

MY HULA HOOP STORY

Hi, I´m Nina from Vienna and I love Hula Hoop Dance so so much. It´s unbelivable female energy and how it strenghtens my body just with fun :0). When you´re one with the hoop and get intouch with the flow– That´s amazing. I´m so in Love with this feeling that now I´m addicted to it :0) I started Hoopdance at a workshop with a performer in Vienna. It was nice and I learned a lot but after a while taking workshops I could not improve myself anymore and I wasn`t that good... So I was frustrated and stopped hooping.
