You can learn this trick once you're
confident hooping around the waist and doing the Lasso (see Lesson #4).
The Corkscrew can be learnt in
two parts. First moving the hoop from your waist up to the Lasso,
and second moving the hoop from the Lasso back down to your
waist.
I will explain this trick for those who
hula hoop to their left (anti-clockwise), so if you hula hoop to the
right reverse the hand and turning instructions.
Start with the hoop spinning around
your waist to the left. Place your right hand on the centre/small of
your back and let the hoop move over it. Leaving your hand in place,
start turning on the spot to your left. Then, when you feel the hoop
move over your right hand grasp it and, while continuing to turn to
your left and leading with the elbow, lift the hoop above your head
so that you are now doing the Lasso.
Then, while doing the Lasso with
the hoop in your right hand, start turning on the spot to your left.
While continuing to turn, lower the hoop back down over your head to your waist and
give it a big push.
This trick is hard to get your head around at first...but practice makes perfect!
