So, remember how easy hula hooping was when you were a kid? I never remember it being difficult... but after trying more recently I realized that it was much harder than it looked.
While at school here we found a hula hoop in the closet and we decided to pull it out and play one day and sure enough, we were all having a hard time. Frustrated, one of the other students found out about a local class that teaches hoop dance! So the two of us ventured out on Saturday to try it out.
We went for an hour and proceeded to learn how to walk forwards and backwards, spin in a circle AND bring the hoop from above the head to our hips and back up. It was amazing how much easier it is with a heavier, bigger, nicer hoop! Here is a little video of what that entails :)
Please ignore the beginning and end. it took me a long time to get it on my stupid computer. I took it on my phone and it wouldn't let me send it to anyone. So, in the end i just decided to video it on my webcam. XD I'll switch it up for a better one later :)
So go hoop it up :)
