HOLA, my hooping amigos & amigas!!

HOW ABOUT THAT PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION??? YAY for President elect Obama!!!! :-D

Anyways, my energy has been high & today's weather was too good to pass up~ Groovin'Megzz inquired about the 3 beat reverse weave so I made a video on some arm isolations that may help peeps get the move. It's fun, so hopefully it'll help! :-)

    Thanks Hiya! And you might surprise yourself if you start playing around! For me, using two hoops off the body is like learning to ride a bike: once I got the feel for it, it became easier to allow the moves to happen through its own momentum, if that makes sense?!

    And Hi Kristen, I just clicked on the link above and it worked for me....so it's still up... a matter of timing, I guess!

    Wow Amy this is great - thanks for sharing!

    One question: What size are the hoops you are using? I've got some material and would like to make some twins and try this.

    Happy Hooping:)

      Thank you, Raven!

      The hoops I am using in the video measure about 36 inches in diameter, outside edge to outside edge. Sometimes it is easier to use smaller ones for learning off-the-body twins moves~ I also have another pair that are about 32" for that. They are lighter and therefore easier to manipulate through the air. I am using the 36" because it is about the smallest comfortable size I can use for on-the-body moves, which I am trying to figure out too. Oh, and it's 1/2" tubing. Happy hooping to you too!! :D

    Thank you! I've been trying to figure this out for awhile now!

      Thank for the comment, Elise! Hope the video helps~ I've been trying to come up with a different way to break it down further, but I am at a loss so far...

        This has helped me a lot, too, although I can't do it yet. =)

        Amy, can you switch from forward to reverse as well? That is one of my goals.

          Great, Lucian! You'll get it.....and yes you can switch from forward to reverse! It just involves stopping that forward rotation (w/ both hoops on one side) & then kind of unwind into the reverse. If you have the forward, then maybe doing that will help translate the move backwards! You can also go into the reverse with a 180 degree of your body turn too. Good luck!!

            yes, i've very much appreciate this video! i actually had my boyfriend watch it to help me out haha
            i thought i had it down.. and i came to realize that i think i'm just doing a crossover and not an actual weave..
            hopefully i'll get it down at some point!
