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!

In this video she is starting the trick Hooping with her Left hand above her head in a clock-wise direction. Make sure your Hoop is in a flat plane as it is spinning over your head. You will be using your RIGHT hand to “catch” the Hoop as it comes around your back. Your RIGHT hand should be to your side, just at your waist. As you begin the trick, lower your Hula Hoop and aim it to go Behind your Back. You’ll feel your elbow sicking out, that is where it’s supposed to be. Now your Hoop is (or should be) behind your back; you will then gently toss your Hoop from your LEFT to your RIGHT hand, keeping your Right hand by your waist is helpful. Just remember that your Left hand should come around your back as much as possible to be able to “deliver” the Hoop to your Right hand. Once you pass it you can spin the Hoop out in front of you, like in the video. Or put the Hoop back on your body and raise it up over your head and begin the trick again.

Hoop Tricks; In this hula hooping trick you are going to learn how to spin the hoop behind your back and then do a back bend into the hoop, and take it back off again.
Start by hooping in wall plane one beat in front of your body and one beat behind your body. The hoop should be traveling CW if in right hand and CCW if in left hand. Hand placement will be palm out behind your back. As the hoop travels behind your back, stop the hoop while it is pointing up and bend backwards so that you are inside the hoop. Now do this faster and you should have the trick.

Hoop Tricks; How to hoop on one shoulder, or how to duck out and do a shoulder roll.
Your going to need to shrug your shoulder and dip the opposite shoulder down so that the shoulder you are going to roll the hoop on is “pointed” to the sky.
Practice first having your arm in the air and ducking your head out. After you are comfortable with that, drop your head out, but keep your arm down. The hoop should roll around your shoulder!
