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.
How to do a behind the back elbow transfer.
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; Playing with open space.
Once you can hoop comfortably and can keep the hoop going, now it is time to play with all that open space in the hoop. Take your hands and look for gabs between the hoop and your body, when you see one, stick your hand in it and pull it back out before the hoop runs into your arm. This is using the “open space” in the hoop and between your body.
You can also do this while turning to slow down the motion and give you a chance to sweep your arm for longer periods of time.
