All the Hoopla

I felt a little strange asking my husband for a hula hoop. It doesn't come up every day. After following Trudy and her crazy love of all things hoop, I took her advice and googled it.


When I was a kid, I had a neon pink and white striped hoop with 3 beads inside. Noisy goodness. I could while away time, and it was really fun. So adult hoops are kinda like my childhood pinky...just heavier.

I got on Hoopnotica's website and found a travel hoop on sale. Buying a new hoop seemed risky and pricey to me, so a gently used one fits the bill. When that box arrives in the mail I'll be nuts with excitement.

Do you think I can talk the hubs into joining me?


So far, I've contented myself with watching YouTube hoop videos. This one's my favorite video. I'm not sure about the "booty bump," but the steps are pretty concise.

Maybe next I should find a skirt like this one to keep things up:
