“A supportive environment with workshops really well-designed for all skill levels. The whole vibe this weekend has been amazing. Beautiful, friendly, empowering.”

After a short hiatus in 2024, the 10th Hoop Away retreat is here!

Hoop Away is heading to Tallarook on Taungurung country for a spring hula hoop retreat with a clubhouse, waterhole and expansive sunsets. Nestled in rolling hills that go for miles and Victorian bushland just one hour north of Melbourne, the birdcalls create a melodic backdrop with sunsets that fade from pastel rainbow to vibrant oranges in just moments.

Tallarook is an indigenous word of  the Taungurung people and means ‘call of the wattle birds’. The location is breathtakingly beautiful.

This retreat will provide an intimate setting to dive deep into your hoop tech and flow and connect with other hoopers. The Hoop Away retreat is all about exploration, inspiration, connection, play, and taking your hooping to the next level. It’s a weekend away with a focus on YOU.

When: 21-23 November 2025
Where: Tallarook, Victoria

Let’s hoop together. Let’s move together. Let’s breathe together. Let’s be together.

Tech Swan - Hoop Away 2025 Teacher

Josh is known for his stimulating tech-filled flow infused with fluid movement, and for pushing the boundaries in hoop-tech both with single and double-hoops. He hopes to inspire others to play with possibilities, realize their creative potential, and to help this community flourish and continue to grow.

Get ready for a delicious mix of brain-bending tech and buttery flow that’ll leave your neurons firing and your creativity buzzing.

Based in St. Petersburg, Florida, he discovered flow arts in 2015 through friends in college. What started out as a fun and casual challenge quickly turned into an obsession, and after being gifted his first hula hoop, he hasn’t put it down since. Intrigued by the hoop’s creative possibilities, he quickly realized his desire was to share concepts and teach others, venturing off to teach at events across America and beyond. As his flow continued to progress and evolve, he began to teach more advanced tech-based classes that focus on specific concepts like duck-outs, coinflips, and jawbreakers. ⁠

“I arrived at Hoop Away exhausted, flat and feeling like I needed a weekend of sleep. I’m leaving refreshed, energised and inspired. Hoop Away refills my soul.

It’s been a dark couple of years and at times I found myself thinking that I have gone past the point in my life where I can experience exuberant joy. I didn’t know what to look forward to in life anymore. Hoop Away has really opened my eyes and heart and made me realise there is so much happiness and love and connection that I can and am yet to experience. I cannot wait to continue my hoop journey and interact with all the beautiful people in the hoop community.”
