Where are classes?
Total Beginners and All Levels hula hoop classes are now LIVE ONLINE & IN-PERSON. For details about exact dates and times and all those things, check out our timetable.

What you will learn
Whether you are just starting out or have been hooping for some time, the focus is on technique, creativity and flow. You will learn on-body and off-body moves and tricks, hoop dance combos, hoopercise drills, circus tricks and techniques, and how to link moves together to create hula hoop dance flow.
If you want to learn something specific or feel unsure about which hula hoop class is right for you, get in touch – we love talking hoop.
What to expect
Our hula hoop classes are a combination of inspiration, fitness, play and dance. Online & in-person hula hoop classes include instruction, practice and challenges for everyone.
Each move/trick will be taught to the group and then, as everyone practises, I will zoom in on each student and offer personalised trouble-shooting, tips and guidance to support you to really GET the moves.
There are 5-10 hoopers in every online class aged from about 20-65!
Each term runs for 8 weeks and each class focuses on different moves, tricks, drills, transitions and concepts. Classes don’t add on to each other so you can join at anytime although, people who come more regularly do start to get comfortable in the hula hoop and begin to pick things up a little quicker.
Classes run for 75 mins.

FAQs
Isn’t hula hooping for kids?
Hooping is for everyone! People from all walks of life are getting in on the spin. Even if you could never hoop as a child, the big, heavy hoops that we use in our adult classes rotate much slower, so it’s easier to keep them on your body.
Is it just standing there moving your hips for an hour?
Not at all, in fact far from it! There are a million and one ways to move with a hoop and engage all the muscles of your body. Plus it’s a fantastic way to release tension, elevate mood, re-energise and nurture creative expression.
Can men do it, or is it just for women?
Men can absolutely do it. Some of the best hoopers in the world are men. Hooping is inclusive of every gender, race, body type and physical ability.
Do I need to be young and slim?
NO! This is one of the biggest misconceptions out there. Hooping can be taken up at any age by anyone of any size. Students are generally aged 14-70! Injuries, range of motion, flexibility, co-ordination – none of these are barriers when it comes to hooping. And while it is a terrific workout, each class has options for everyone.
What about injuries?
Check with your medical practitioner first and, if they give you the go ahead come along. Let the hula hoop facilitator know about your injury and they can adapt some of the movements and/or provide alternate options as you heal and get stronger.
Do I have to wear unicorn tights and a neon wig?
Only if you want to! Just wear something you are comfortable to move in. Anything you would wear to exercise or a yoga class is perfect.
What if I can’t make it to the online hula hoop class?
All online hula hoop classes will be recorded with a link to download them sent out within 1 hour of the class finishing. So, if you miss an online hula hoop class, you can catch up and practise it in your own time.
