Instructions
1. Find a hoop dance you like and buy the video. There are a few different hoop dancing videos out there so look at each one and determine if it will work for you. View them beforehand if possible by renting them from the video store or checking them out from the library.
2. Buy a hoop. Some videos are sold as a kit complete with the hoop while others aren't. Know what you're getting and if yours doesn't come with a hoop buy one. It should be bigger and heavier than the ones you'll find at the toy store.
3. Get a collapsible hoop if space is an issue. Betty Hoops sells a collapsible hoop for easy storage. It's also adjustable to accommodate different hip sizes.
4. Find space to hoop dance at home. You'll be swinging your hips this way and that while moving the hoop around your waist. Clear a space so you won't hit any furniture or breakables. You'll need room above your head too so watch out for ceiling fans.
