Lifts from the waists have many variations and use a few different names. A basic lift from the waist is just what it says on the tin. Hoop Girl licensed trainers will use the term Float Up and Float Down.
Caroleena has an excellent tutorial on lifting from the waist and how to make the lift up/lift down in to a continuous move fondly called by hoopers, 'Beam Me Up'!

Re: Lifts from the Waist / "Beam Me Up" / "Float Up/Down"
Wed, May 28, 2008 - 12:32 PMDuring the workshop on 24th May 08, a few of you pointed out that during this move you discovered you needed to back in to your opposite direction/ flow/ current.
If you are hooping ANTI CLOCKWISE (to the left!) you need to use your RIGHT HAND to perfom the lift.
If you are hooping CLOCKWISE (to the right!) you need to use your LEFT HAND to perfom the lift.
If you are using a combination of directions remember to include a BREAK by stopping the hoop with your hands and then continue in the most normal direction for you. -
