Wonders of the World Wide Web

Aspiring hoopists, YouTube is your best friend.

In Melbourne, although hooping is gaining popularity, it is not a cheap or easily accessible skill to learn face to face. Classes that I recommend are House of Burlesque in Fitzroy, Puzzle Dust Circus in North Carlton and Prahran, and the NICA Short Course in Prahran.


But if you want to save your money and learn some basic skills, YouTube is definitely the way to go. I recommend this charming American lady (see videos below). Don't be put off by her pink double tracksuit and tramp stamp, she teaches everything from hooping basics to advanced hoop dance moves, and breaks them down in a really simple and easy way to understand. What's more is you have the liberty to pause, rewind and watch them over and over.

I maintain that my best tricks were learnt from YouTube.

And remember, bruises are normal. When I was learning bruises would pop up on my hands, hips, arms, knees, neck and nose! (And still do.) YOU ARE GOING TO HIT YOURSELF IN THE FACE. It's all part of the learning process.
