Tutorial: Chest Reversals

[darbycrashful]

Great tutorial! A very coherent and straightforward showcase of all the different variations of chest reversals I was looking for! Thanks so much and thanks for the inspiration. :)

[rpwca]

Fantastic!  So many options! Thanks for sharing :)

[Wheel333]

Great tutorial thanks

[TiNYKITTIES]

thank you! love all the different types combined in one tutorial

[martamima]

Bit by bit, I'm starting to get these. It would help if I could manage the "paddling" with the hand that reaches across my body to do it (R hand if I'm hooping "to the L")...

[martamima]

...And then....a few minutes with your "Paddling" tutorial (and a slightly heavier hoop!), and it all begins to come! I love the way the onion keeps opening and sharing its layers.... And this is a case where, for me, my lightest-weight hoop is NOT my friend - I need a bit more mass to keep it going while I learn how to guide it smoothly.

[OmLochi]

Ooooh wow thank you for sharing this tutorial, I have watched so many on reversals, stall and paddling but this one really just made it happen, I can do it now! Thank you :)

[andysemail15]

[Noahow]

Thanx for this great tutorial, it's very helpfull! You are a supercool hooper and a great teacher!

[roryboureealis]

I've been looking for a tutorial on breaks, and haven't been able to find one til now! Thanks so much, this video was totally helpful! Great job!

[stalesausage]

thank you. 'bout time someone taught this.

[ribanafish]

You are AMAZING!!! Thank you for posting the video! (Will take years before I get that down though...)

[shimarella]

can you break down the backward under-arm pinch. i know i'm missing something obvious here as far as which arm does the pinch in order to reverse it to the back...

[lambdatronic]

If you are reversing backward with the pinch, you pinch with the arm opposite to the direction of your hooping current. So if you are hooping to the left, use your right arm and vice versa. Good luck, ~Gary

[shimarella]

wow, lots of stuff to aspire to. thank you!

[BlueTornado8]

Wow, that's wicked. And I thought I was good. :D

[mamasasquatch]

I have so much work to do... but I'm inspired! Thanks for the detailed explanation

[thelipstickfemme]

Hi Gary, I have been practicing for months on this and I finally have got it. Thanks so much for the breakdown. The best explanation so far that I can seen.

[Justanotherspinner]

Thankyou, you are good at explaining things. Great performers are not always good teachers. Up until now I have been learning using music & a mirror as other tutorials have been of little help, differing largely from how I ended up Iearning the moves at home. I am therefore not convinced into spending large amounts of money on online classes. Hope to see more of your tutorials on here.xx

[siekkinen4]

many thanks!!!

[choitse1]

The best advanced hoop tutorial I've ever seen. Amazing breakdown.

[thelipstickfemme]

Thanks Gary, I am going to try this tomorrow during my workout. Thanks for the Hoop Path technique by Baxter.

[thelipstickfemme]

Gaffers tape is the best for creating traction with your hoops. Just put a line inside of the inner part of the hoop. It really helps.

[orbitress]

FINALLY!!!!!! Someone willing to teach this amazing hooppath technique, I cant afford to fly out from Hawaii for their classes, I actually quit hooping for a long time because I got so frustated trying to learn these moves, I will still definitly buy the next vid from the hooppath, dont worry Bax, youll allways get my vote for instructor of the year.xxxooo BTW Love that Beat it Video, More please!!!!

[dhoopla]

Thank you, Thank you, I cant thank you enough for the video... I have been trying to figure this out for some time... your great keep up the great hooping..

[chewbobington]

"Put tape on your hoops." Haha, it's true!

Thanks for this! This is my dream tutorial, I've been trying to figure these moves out on my own for months! I really appreciate the extra help!

[lealynp]

Thanks! Now I have something new to practice today!

[kentbye]

Hey Gary,

Great tutorial, and thanks for consolidating all of these techniques right before I dive into more chest hooping.

I'm curious, did you find all of these variations from watching others, or did some of them emerge after your own iterations?

[mutantsong]

it's pretty much all Hoop Path stuff.

[lambdatronic]

Hey Ken, As mutantsong notes, most of what I'm showing is nothing new to Hoop Path folks. Of course, I've never actually studied with them, so all the stuff I demonstrate in my tutorials comes from some combination of watching videos and playing with variations on what I've seen.  So it's not all mine or all theirs entirely.

[ShpongledHoops]

you're so sexy!

[Cstrmy]

NICE! Thanks for all the different varieties :) I call that differentiated instruction :)  Keep the tutorials coming--they're helpful.
