Look at her go! That pretty Christabel Zamor with her wonderful figure! She looks so sexy and joyous with that hoop!
Hooping looks so much fun and so liberating! Christabel says 80 year old women have been able to do it. Oh well. So anyway, I got myself two hoops and tried it out. I couldn’t keep the thing up for even a second. Christabel has actually come out with a hoopdance video, which I have, so I wanted to see if I too could burn a ton of calories with her workout. The warm up itself is a great workout. But nope, no way could I keep the thing up. I wondered whether to get the hoops made by Hoopgirl but didn’t know whether to spend money on it and then find I was one of those people who would never ever get it.
A few days ago though, a friend of mine got me a Hoopgirl hoop. And hey, they were right! Those are different! The hoop is heavier and bigger and that m akes it easier rather than more difficult. it also has some friction tapes which help to keep the hoop up. That’s cool with me. I tried it out and it’s beginning to stay up longer. I whack myself on the foot or arm every so often because it falls, but it’s beginning to happen. Christabel says it took her two weeks to start hooping. So I’m hooping it’ll happen for me too…

Holy smokes, double hooping! We have a hoop group here in Milwaukee, and one of my students came over the other day and let me try out her thick and heavy dancing hoop. It was easier to keep it up and going than a regular hoop. But I don’t picture myself doing two at once. Very impressive!

Is the hoop group thin? The only reason I’m trying it out is to lose weight. Haven’t managed to keep it going very much yet. Once it worked for 65 rounds, but usually it falls down after 7 or 8!
