Start by spinning your hula hoop around your body, doing a body orbit as I believe it is called. Bring the hoop behind your back and then bend over bringing your chest to the ground. At the same time your hoop is going to start rotating around your thumb that is pointed towards the sky. When the hoop twirls over your back and you can see the open space it creates, bend up into the hoop and use your hand to give it s whirl and keep the momentum going.

Learn how to POP a small, light Hoop, up, off your shoulder after having been Hooping around your neck, and your shoulder. You should already know how to spin a Hoop around your neck and then duck in with your shoulder. Straighten out your arm (whatever shoulder you ducked in with, use THAT arm, straightened out) and grasp your Hoop with your hand, it looks like she’s holding it lightly with her fingers, then she bends the Hoop, by squeezing it, and then letting it go, POP into the air!
Learn how to continuously spin your Hula Hoop and use the inertia to duck your shoulder in.
This shows you starting to spin your Hoop on your left shoulder, continuously spinning and turning in the clock-wise direction. Spin a few times, allowing the hoop to move and duck your head in through the hula hoop, by leaning your head to the right.
Start by hula hooping around your body using your hands to carry the hoop in an orbit around your body. Then you are going to place the hoop on your ankle. If you are hooping counter clockwise, then place the hoop on your left ankle, if you are hooping clockwise, use your right ankle. Once the hoop is hooked on your ankle, sweep your leg around behind your body and over to its opposite side. As the hoop come over to the opposite side of your body and before it hits your back, grab the hoop off your ankle and resume the body orbit.
Hoop Tricks; Learn to carry the hoop around your body using just your foot and then placing the hoop onto your chest…..yes…with just your foot!
To start this hula hooping trick, you need to be able to do a foot carry. You bring the hoop onto your foot (toes pointed up) and bring that leg around your body and grab the hoop from the opposite side you started on, back into your hand.
Start by hooping forwards on one of your elbows. As the hoop comes behind you and you can sense that open space in the hoop, quickly rotate at your hips and stick your other elbow behind your back and into the open space of the hoop. The hoop should hook your elbow and then continue spinning backwards on the opposite side you began on.
Hoop Tricks; How to roll your hula hoop along your back
Start by spinning the hoop towards your self in the wall plane. Look to the hand that is spinning the hoop and place the hoop on your arm with enough momentum so that the hoop will roll all the way over to your other hand. Did I forget to mention that your chest is going to need to be angled towards the floor? Watch the hoop roll down your arm and then turn your head to look for the hoop so you can grab it and keep on hooping.
Hoop Tricks; How to spin the hoop on a vertical axis on your foot.
Start by getting balance just standing on one foot while the other foot is out to the side. Now point your toes.
Start by spinning the hula hoop backwards on your hand and bring your foot closer to you while reaching out with your hand that has the hoop and gently place the hoop on your foot. Hurray, now your foot hooping!
An isolation is a point in space that does not move, whether that is an actual object or an imaginary line.
Grab your hula hoop and put your hands on either side of it, imagine that there is a hub in the middle and that you are going to be moving your hoop around that fixed hub, much like the steering wheel of a car.
