How to Hula Hoop

Hula Hoop

Learn hula hooping basics from hooping expert Natalie "McFancy" Wise in this Howcast video.

All right. Hula Hoop Basics. To get started, you want to start with your feet hip distance apart, maybe a little bit wider. Comfortable stance, not too wide. You want to keep it just outside your shoulders. One foot should be slightly in front of the other. It doesn't matter which one. You can experiment and try both. I would suggest that. Keep your knees nice and soft and your spine nice and straight, like you're trying to balance a book on your head. So knees are nice and soft, the spine is nice and straight.
