Hoop your way to Happiness
We know that hooping is a super fun way to
get fit. Burn calories, develop balance and coordination while
strenghthening the core but the most amazing benefit of hooping is how
good you feel even after a short session. I am amazed even after all
these years of hooping, the sensation of joy and vitality that I
continue to experience when I hoop. It doesn't take long, only a few
moments and I almost immediately start to observe a shift in my
awareness and mood. I smile and feel ecstatic and joyful to move and
express myself with the playfullness that hooping provides. Check it
out for yourself, the next time you feel frustrated, upset or even sad,
get your hoop out and find a space to spin. It won't take long before
the cloud lifts and you will smile at the joy of movement and vitality
that you will feel. Yes. Enjoy!

Hooping is one of the hottest new fitness trends that is sweeping the

Hooping Playshops
We are very happy to come and facilitate
a hooping playshop at your place of work or school. Hooping playshops
are inspiring, fun and motivational which help to bring a group of
people together in a whole new context that fosters personal growth and
group learning. My ten years of elementary school teaching and passion
for hooping has enabled me to create a dynamic hoops program that will
encourage team building while we dance, exercise and play with
BodyHoops. For more information and to schedule a hooping playshop
email diana@bodyhoops.com
performance at Burning Man 2007
Enjoy the changing of the seasons, the cooler days,
lengthening of the starry night skies and keep on spinning smiles!
All the best~
