Happy Healthy Holidays!
As winter approaches, many of us will have to move our
hooping
practice indoors. Clear a space in your home or find out
about using
your local fitness center, gym or dance studio for your
hooping
practice. It's important to keep up with the regular
exercise,
especially through the hectic holidays. Hooping is a great
way to
de-stress, work up a sweat, dance and play. Share the joy
of hooping
this holiday season with yourself and someone you love.
Enjoy!
BodyHoops Teacher Training
Over the past couple of
months, I facilitated two teacher trainings, one on the East coast in
Greenfield, Massachusettes and then a West coast conference
in Ojai,
California. While the format of the program I developed is
the same for each conference, I am really enjoying how each training is
uniquely
wonderful and rich. Participants bring a creative
enthusiastic energy
for wanting to sharing the joy of the hoop which makes each
experience
special.
Join us for an
upcoming conference or email diana@bodyhoops.com to find out about
setting up a conference in your area.

It was my second year to participate in the International Spa Conference
as a "Greet the Day" presentor. The event was held at the grand Gaylord Palms Resort
and Convention Center
in Kissimmee, Florida, Nov 12-15. It was a lot of fun
introducing the
Bodyhoops Fitness Program to those who attended the
event. The
conference is an opportunity to expeience the latest
in spa amenities
and services for those in the spa industry.
Hooping Tip of the Season
I love how music and hooping go hand in hand. Hooping
is a sport where
music can impact your workout in a big way. Music
will help you to
develop a sense of rhythm in your body and with your
breath. Some may
think that hooping in front of the television is a
good way to
exercise, but really it's not as effective as putting
on some good
beats and experiencing where the music will take you.
You will feel
inspired to move your body fully instead of zoning out
in front of the
screen, and this will help to develop a better sense
of body awareness,
coordination and balance. Have fun with a variety of
tempos and genres
and see how it encourages you to try different styles
of movement to
express yourself. You will feel more energized,
happy and experience
a more effective workout.
Wishing you all the best this holiday season and
throughout the New Year.
Love, Diana
