Outward Spiral

 

I personally handcraft each and every hoop with love and intention.
I have many hoops available. They range from $20-$45 depending on size and amount and type of tape used. (Most adult hoops are $30 or $35.) You can choose from one of the many hoops I have already made at a local demo or event. (Note: I do not always bring my hoops for sale to the beach jams, so please let me know ahead of time if you plan on purchasing one there.)

If you have a particular color combination and/or size in mind, you could have one specially designed for you to and your own specific needs and taste. I can also ship them for an additional fee.

I’d be delighted to custom build your new hoop with you in mind. I can make hoops of any size and in any color combination. There are lots of specialty tapes to choose from. Feel free to contact me and I can send you a price list and tape options you can choose from. I’ll also be happy to help guide you in making a decision of what size/weight is best for you.

If you are local to Sarasota you can also arrange to meet me at a weekly Beach Hoop Jam or a Hoop Dance class. It’s also helpful, if you’re new to hooping, to try out a few different weights and sizes of hoops to decide which works best for you.

Generally speaking, one will start off with a larger hoop. The size of the hoop refers to the diameter of the circle. Beginner hoops can range between 46″ and 39″. As a general guideline for a beginner’s hoop, you probably wouldn’t want a hoop any smaller in diameter than the height from the floor to your bellybutton. I tend to go larger as like the slower speed of a larger hoop. But again, everyone is different and you need a hoop that “feels” right for you.

There are also two different weights to beginner’s hoops. There is a light-weight version and a heavy-weight version. It is personal preference which weight you prefer.
