Are you brand new or have some foundational skills already and are ready to add some fun tricks and put them together? This is the hula hoop class for you! This class is designed to be a multi level beginner class.

Each of our classes starts with stretching and learning waist hooping for cardio. Our focus is split between waist hooping, hand hooping foundations and learning fun tricks. Each week we review our tricks from the previous week to ensure complete understanding and link them together in combos.

You will learn escalators, vortex, isolation variations and more tricks which flow together for combos and by the end of the series you will be dancing with your hoop!

If moves feel too easy you are challenged to use the opposite hand or we will find the next level up to make sure every student is challenged at their level.

Come for fun, fitness and giggles!

This class is designed for those who already have a firm grasp of waist and hand hula hooping.  Must also have understanding of escalators, vortex and isolations.

We start with stretching and waist/chest/knee hooping cardio dance flow, learning to move and boogie with our hoops. Our focus will be on building new skills, learning tricks, and smoothing out the ones you may already know. Each week we will review our tricks from the previous week to ensure complete understanding moving forwards.

Participants are challenged to use their anti flow and the opposite hand to learn tricks. There’s always the option to try adding a second hoop! I do my best to make sure every participant is being challenged at their level!

INTERMEDIATE TRICKS AND FLOW – 4 weeks – Sundays Nov. 17 6:15

Wednesdays Nov. 20 – Dec. 11, 7:00-8:00pm

VIP Fitness & Lifestyle, 1541 W. Broadway, Mt. Pleasant

This class is designed for brand new double hoopers, though it is useful for all double hoopers! We will start with the basics of doubles movement: turning and grip switches, split time and same time hand spinning in the same and opposite direction.​

We will also learn doubles tricks and work on smoothing them out and putting them together.  You can be flowing by the end of the series! Lots of doubles moves originate from single hoop moves, so you will find lots of the tricks easily achievable with existing single hoop knowledge.

As always in my classes, we move at the speed of the students and there are options to be challenged at your level.

Registration open!

This class is for hoopers who already have solid double hoop skills and are ready to advance with extra challenging tricks.

All classes start with a quick warmup, body hooping for cardio, tricks and combos followed by a quick cooldown. If multiple body hoops are available we will practice multi body hooping. If not we will work with a single hoop.

You will learn technical and flow tricks as well as how to transition between tricks to create combos.

Classes are always taught to the level of students and are adapted easily so everything is achievable for each student. Each student receives individual tips and feedback.

It is ideal to have 2 matched size hoops, size 32″ or smaller. Contact me if you need new hoops or use the ones I provide.

Brand new to hooping? Want to strengthen your foundational skills? This is the hula hoop class for you! Come for fun, fitness and giggles!

Each of our adult hula hoop classes starts with stretching and learning waist hooping for cardio. Our focus is split between waist hooping, hand hooping foundations and learning fun tricks. Each week we review our tricks from the previous week to ensure complete understanding before moving forwards.

You will learn foundational tricks and by the end of the series I will have you moving with your hoop!

If moves feel too easy you are challenged to use the opposite hand or the teacher will find the next level up to make sure every student is challenged at their level.

Our focus in this class is putting moves together to make fun and sassy combos. You will learn some new tricks and perfect some already in your repertoire. The focus is on transitions, flow, and dance rather than filling our bag of tricks.

This class is ideal for anyone who has taken intermediate classes with Radiant Life before, or if you’ve been practicing solo and are ready to launch your hoop skills into overdrive! Must have a firm grasp of escalators, vortex and isolations with confident control when waist and hand hooping.

All Radiant Life Classes start with a warm up and end with a cool down, and this class focuses on learning chest and/or knee hooping if that’s the level you’re at!

Teacher moves at the speed of the class and there may occasionally be tricks that take a few weeks to learn. We will always revisit what we have learned to get the skills into our muscle memory.

NOT CURRENTLY OFFERED. CONTACT ME IF INTERESTED.

This 45 minute class is designed for body hoopers who are looking to do hula hoop fitness. We will start with a full body warmup before moving to body hooping. Once warm we will practice on body hooping with a focus on proper posture and keeping the hoop up. You will be challenged to move the hoop in both directions so you get an even workout through your body. Eventually you will be doing the grapevine, moving in circles and cruising around your space! Each class will finish with a cool down stretch.

Each student will receive individual feedback and tips so you can cruise through the steps! You will always be challenged at your level so you don’t have to work harder than you want to. This class is good for brand new to experienced hoopers.

Hula hooping is a great low impact workout which is often recommended by doctors for a variety of injuries such hip, knee, pelvis and collarbones. It is also a good workout to get you moving at your own pace. I recommend using a 1″ beginner HDPE hoop or a larger size 3/4″ polypro hoop.

Available by private classes. Contact me for more details and schedule classes in your own time!

This class is all about the multi hoop circus fun! It is ideal for anyone who already has a firm grasp of double hooping, but it is not necessary to have any multi hoop experience.

We will make shapes, learn 3 hoop tricks, learn 4 hoop tricks, practice on body multi hooping, and so much more! We will focus on a bit of double hooping to create our combo. The moves we focus on for this class are very showy and fun.

Over the course of 4 weeks you will learn a complete combo switching from 2 to 3 to 4 hoops!

You must have hoops that are the same size. 2 sets of opposite colors is ideal for learning but unnecessary. I use 2 different colors to clarify for teaching.

Available by private classes. Contact me for more details and schedule classes in your own time!

If you have a good grasp of the hula hoop already, or consider yourself a trickster then this is the class for you!

We will be learning choreographed combos that flow together easily with a focus on doubles tricks and transitions. Single hoop tricks build on current skills and will be worked in to flow.

In this class, we will start with light stretching then warmup cardio waist, chest, and knee hooping. This includes moving it up and down the body, and anti flow direction.

Depending on the class skill level, these hula hoop classes can focus on doubles, triples, quads, and foot hooping.
