Hooping: When I Go- Emancipator

[DanceKitten472]

You are truly my inspiration. There are a lot of good hoopers out there but your style is just breath taking. <3

[jiminhwang]

@DanceKitten472 awww thank you thank you! your words are just as much of an inspiration to me, and i am humbled by your words :) much love<3

[LiquidCerulean]

@DanceKitten472 Agreed! You are definitely one of my favorites to watch!

[jiminhwang]

@LiquidCerulean thank you so much!! <3

[HighsFromHyderabad]

You are very beautiful and talented. :) Im very impressed. Very Fun vid to watch.

[jiminhwang]

@HighsFromHyderabad thank you so much!! warms my heart that people enjoy what i have to share :)

[islamazon1]

I can get it if I just set the hoop in place and start spinning, but I cant make the hoop stick on my chest if it's already spinning. How do I catch it there?

[jiminhwang]

@islamazon1 you gotta move with the energy flow of the hoop when you do chest stalls. that's how you carry the hoop on your chest with you. it also helps if you lead with your chest :)

hope that helps!!

[Lisadippity329]

This is one of my faves by Emancipator this was an awesome video!

[jiminhwang]

@Lisadippity329 thank you!! i love this song toooo :)

[islamazon1]

dammit how do you do those chest isolations??? I can't do it!

[islamazon1]

You are awesome!! Loove your style! I go go dance with a light up hoop but I'm really not good enough to be performing, just no one in my area hoops so no one can tell I'm really just a beginner lol. I hope I can get to be as good as you! <3

[jiminhwang]

[jiminhwang]

@theerinfairy thank you!! chest isolations are my faaaavoriteeee :) they make me feel like i'm soaringggg lol... anyway mucho love to you hoop sistaaaa <3

[zanetka325]

I love love love your style, but oh my god how do you not get DIZZY? Do you feel that your brain's just become accustomed to all the spinning? Or are you simply far less prone to motion sickness than most people?

[jiminhwang]

@zanetka325 oh i get really really dizzy!! lol a lot of times i trip over my feet or totally throw myself off balance... usually after recording a hoop video i'm sitting on the floor trying to make the room stop spinning lol

[babysnakes25]

You are def one of my favorite hoopers! So GD beautiful!

[jiminhwang]

@babysnakes25 thank you so much!!!

[llaurenrowe]

So beautiful, you bring a completely different style to hoopdancing. I hope to be as good as you one day.

[jiminhwang]

@llaurenrowe you have the potential to be so much more amazing than me! just keep practicing ma :)

[LateSeptemberC]

sweet

[onsaphi]

I love this.  Its like a form of dancing that i've never seen before. You are beautiful just like the song.

[jiminhwang]

@onsaphi ahhh thank you so much!! but the real beauty is in people like you who enjoy my hooping and warm my heart with their kind words-- you keep me inspired!

[TrollSyndrome]

Sorry for posting that twice haha

[jiminhwang]

@TrollSyndrome :)

[TrollSyndrome]

Any advice???? :)

[TrollSyndrome]

Love this song and your hooping is beautiful! I'm just getting into it

[TrollSyndrome]

I love this sing and your Hooping is beautiful. I'm just getting into it myself, any advice??

[jiminhwang]

@TrollSyndrome keep practicing! a lot of it is muscle memory, so you really get better with every time you pick up your hoop! this may sound really dumb, but i learned a lot from just feeling out my hoop-- figuring out how the hoop feels when it's around different parts of your body, playing with the negative spaces and the shapes that the hoop makes, figuring out when the hoop opens up to create space for some arm/neck/shoulder/leg action, etc... eventually it'll start to feel natural and flowy

[pieater112]

Another song you should dance to is "Black Sands" by Bonobo, idk but your dancing could have the same stunning effect as this video has.

[jiminhwang]

@pieater112 i love bonobo!!!! i always have bonobo on my hooping playlists lol

[gypysrosetnd]

[jiminhwang]

that should be a glowing hoop with breaks in glowing like dashes.... and should be dark...

[moana703]

you are gorgeus!

[jiminhwang]

@moana703 ah thank you love!

[Shaktigrooves]

You are gorgeous. Omg, I have a hoop crush on you. I love the wild abandon with which you hoop, like a goddess, lost in her creation!

[jiminhwang]

@Shaktigrooves ahh that warms my heart! thank you for yer kind words :]

[betherann]

Just gorgeous. I love how abandoned you are to the movement.

[jiminhwang]

@betherann thanku thankuthank you!

[Angeltots]

What size of hoop do you use and what's your height? I am not sure if I should get a small adult size for myself or the regular one. im 5 feet and 125. help?

[jiminhwang]

@Angeltots i use a 36" hoop and i'm 5'1... lol idk if that's of much help but i don't know too much about sizes either! i just picked whatever's smallest when i first started and i've been happy with it

[Angeltots]

@jiminhwang Thanks! Now I know I really shouldn't get the regular one. xD Regular one is 42". Are you using a weighted hoop? Which brand are you using?

You're really good. I love it!

[lrmacey]

@Angeltots You should be fine with a 36" hoop. I'm 5'8" and started out with a 40" hoop and now my favorite is a 35", 3/4 tubing. I like having some weight to work with but you'll tire of a larger hoop really fast because the advanced moves are kind of limited. If you have a chance, try out some people's hoops and see what works best for you. There are lots of different sizes and weights you can work with. It's all personal preference. Hope this helps!

[tracerammo]
