Body Doubling 10 minute Hoop Session | Let's hoop together New series: Body Doubling 🌀Not the productivity kind. The other k...

I remember the exact hoop I started with. A kid's hoop. Tiny, plastic, definitely not built for a grown woman. But at the time I didn't know any better. I was living in Tokyo, teaching primary school, and I picked it up in my living room, half as a joke but also looking for something to fill the void. I was craving something new.

First spin. I sucked. Genuinely, embarrassingly bad at it. But I knew. This feeling, whatever this is, I want to share it with people.

​
Here's the thing that doesn't always get said out loud. Falling in love with hooping...at some point, if you keep going, it stops being just yours.

​
People start watching you. Asking questions. Standing a little closer at the park, hoop-curious, hungry for whatever it is you've got.

Have you already felt that?

​

And you get a choice. You can keep it to yourself. Or you can turn around and say "want me to show you how?"

​

That second option is what Hoop Love Coach Training is for. https://hooplovecoaching.com/2026hlc/

Not because you need a certificate to teach hoop (you don't, and this training is not about certification it is about connection, support, not working it out alone). But because turning "I love this" into "I can hold space for other people to love this too" is its own skill. One I've spent 15+ years figuring out so you don't have to start from zero.

​
If you've been circling this decision for a while, hooping solo, wondering where your people are, wondering if this could actually be something you teach and share...then this is me, turning around, saying "want me to show you how?" https://hooplovecoaching.com/2026hlc/

​

I will be back soon with all the details of what is included in the training but for now, check out the Hoop Love Coach Training here. ​

It was never just about the tricks.

You didn't fall in love with a skill. You fell in love with who you are when you're moving.

Are you also feeling nostalgic this week? Like where does the past end, where does now begin, what even is the future? I had a big dream last night, about the origins of my hooping and I woke up in tears. But maybe I will keep that for another post.

As I strolled back from my mail box this morning (a new book had arrived) my mind was fluttering with hooping imagery. Thinking about hooplovers all over the planet, our connection with each other, with the hoop, with our selves.

A question that I often put out into the space struck me again. What if it was never about the tricks? What if every single one of them, the isolations, the on body, the off body stuff that took you months and made you want to throw the hoop across the room, was never actually the point? (all of it fun and challenging though...so absolutely worth it)

What if every moment of it was bringing you back to yourself? What if it is one big spiral path of self discovery?

I think that's the part nobody warns you about when you pick up a hoop for the first time. You think you're learning a skill. A trick. A thing to get good at. And then six months in you realise the hoop's been quietly teaching you something else the whole time.

How you talk to yourself when you drop it. Whether you can stay in your body when something's hard. What it feels like to keep going, slowly, clumsily, on purpose, unpolished. How you celebrate yourself. What regulation feels like for you. Where self soothing resides.

That was never a trick. That was the evolution of self.

I built every ​Hooplovers course​ around that, even when I called it a tutorial. Even when the thumbnail says "learn this move." Underneath every single one is the same actual offer: come find out who you are in your body, with your body, for yourself. The tricks are just the gateway.

If you've been telling yourself you'll start once you're "good enough" or pick up your hoop again once you "feel good" let me gently remind you that it is not a destination that exists somewhere in the future. You get to discover yourself now and come as you are.

​Come find out who you are in there.​ https://learn.hooplovers.tv/pages/solsticesale
