This Vertical Hooping Tutorial focuses on how to pop in to the hoop and roll it across your back as you’ve placed it onto your chest. This move is so effective when moving into from a weave or just vertical hand hooping. In this move we place the hoop onto our chest whilst leaning forward and let the inside of the hula hoop roll over your back quickly in chest hooping vertically with our arms out of the hoop and from there we pull it off all in one motion. You will see how this move can be used as a way to move from vertical hand hooping into vertical chest hooping and back. Vertical Hooping where always a challenge for me to get right. In this Hooping tutorial I’ve added some pointers that helped me get the Vertical Pop In right. I hope it helps you! 🙂

Thank you so much. My gorgeous beginner hoop arrived in record time. I absolutely love it! I've started working my way through the online course and am loving the easy-to-follow instruction and relaxed, no-pressure vibe. In my head, I am already picking out the colours of my next hoop (why just have one?).
If you’re wondering whether to buy a hula hoop from Maria then take my advice and DO IT!! Maria is a total sweetheart and her hoops are a work of art. I adore mine, I want ten more. It’s sparkly and pretty and sturdy and light and you definitely should purchase your hoop from her.
Maria make the most incredible travelling hoops, not only functional but absolutely beautiful and perfectly weighted. I recently travelled for 7 weeks overseas and whilst on tour, I assembled my hoop at each destination in just 60 seconds and was ready for my hooping workout, what a great way to keep fit whilst eating & drinking your way around europe, in fact I returned home 2kgs lighter, thanks Maria ��
I bought my first 2 hoops from this shop and are super happy with the purchase! I have bought a couple more hoops since then but love my HoopsAlive hoops and use them all of the time! There was a shipping issue but it was sorted ASAP and all issues were resolved in a speedy and pleasant matter :)
I purchased Maria's online hooping course and I found it so useful! Maria explains things in real detail, I'm so grateful to have more confidence in my hooping skills. Thank you!
