Ask me how I know...

I find it is quite easy to get sucked into the quest for perfection in my hoop dance. To 'nail' a trick and even have a move synced up with music...it's like that's all I work for when I pick up my hoop. To feel like a professional performer even if it's just for 5 seconds...I catch myself doing this in my home office, my kitchen gets a lot of playtime, even the hallway gets to become my stage.

My intentions are automatic - pick up hoop, try to feel like a star. What usually happens, is something closer to: pick up hoop, look for phone to play music, walk around with hoop on my shoulder till I find one of the kids with my phone, negotiate with said child, find song, attempt Lisa Lottie style body roll down the back to catch with the foot while in a not so graceful arabesque, chase hoop into next room, serve hot dogs again for supper.

This is my life, trying to squeeze in a bit of imaginary stardom - once in a while it does work though! Most of the time I am recovering from a major blooper.

Did you know that a raw potato cut in half will unscrew a broken light bulb from its socket?
Did you know Mr Clean Magic Eraser cleans up walls, ceilings, kitchen cupboards and floors from gaffer skid marks?
Did you know that 8x8 is just enough room to waist hoop...and no other tricks at all?
Did you know that 37 inch hoops are just that much too big to do tricks inside the house standing up and kneeling?
Did you know that popcorn ceilings are really hard to clean / hide your hoop skid marks?


I know these from personal experience - all great lessons in there...and a lot of laughs too. If you have any bloopers come share them with us and let us laugh along with you.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/hooperbloopers/ is your safe place to post your awkward moves and hoop screw ups. Even Lisa Lottie shared a blooper ...we are all human...so ditch that perfection quest and enjoy the journey!

Happy Hooping!
