Think you can't hula hoop, think again. Hula hooping is back and better than ever!!! The new larger, weighted hoops create success for everyone. Regardless of age, size or rhythmic ability, hooping is an activity that most everyone can enjoy. It's a low impact, high cardio activity that strengthens your core, tones your entire body, increases energy and flexibility and is so much FUN you won't want to stop! We will introduce dynamic flow and new moves that will take you beyond the basics in each class.

This class is suitable for beginners to advanced hoopers. Professional adult hula hoops will be provided for class (bring your own if you have one) and there will be hoops available to purchase. Space is limited, so be sure to reserve your space early. Drop ins are welcome - not encouraged.
