I’m a big fan of these … http://www.bodyhoops.com/Standard_Fitness_Hoop_p/sfh.htm There are also some great beginner hoops at Hoopnotica.com. Check them out … You want a larger hoop to begin with. As you get better you go to smaller and lighter ones.

Let me know how you do! They don’t cost too much until you get into the LEDs and super fancy tape ones … make sure you get ones with lots of grippy tape on it. The shiner metallic tapes slip more.

Have fun and when you get one let me know and I’ll point you to some training videos on YouTube!

Thanks Christabel! It’s been a very fun month and I’ve lost a dress size & 6 lbs! I find hooping calming, invigorating & fun all at the same time. Now if I could just figure out shoulder hooping I’d be set!

I’m working with Marria Kee, I think you know her right? Boston Hoop Troop?

Thanks for your kind words :-)

I’e been watching my girls (7 and 5) having fun with hula hoops outside and on Wii Fit. I recall having fun with one growing up, yet considered it as a “child’s pursuit.” Obviously, your post is leading me to rethink that position. Thanks, Lisa!
