Love the elbow pass, great video, thanks :)

[HoopCharmer]

@1lisarussell I call it the full matrix! Thanks for watching!

[JohnLRice]

[HoopCharmer]

@JohnLRice Thanks John!

[tayyter]

You're probably one of the best hoopers I've seen. You're sooo smooth haha. I'm like trying to find a tutorial on your slow motion trick. I hoop clockwise and it seems like not a lot of people do so everything seems a little backwards. But you are SO good. Such an inspiration! Happy hooping! :D

[HoopCharmer]

@tayyter Thank you so very much! That elbow trick has been quite a hit. Ill look into potentially making a tutorial on that in the near future.

Since I teach hoop dance, I understand how you feel with hooping opposite of most people... just remember not to get to much in your head about it.... Its just oppostie of what others are doing. Break it down piece by piece in your direction, and then try learning it the opposite way. This will make you a more balanced hooper anyway! :-)

[shevthechef]

Hey, you're amaaaaazing!! What weight of hoop do you usually use?

[HoopCharmer]

@shevthechef Not sure what it weighs, but Ive been working with a 33 inch diameter with 5/9 inch polyethelene tubing lately. My hoop was bigger than that in this video tho. :-)

[apasoclandestino]

en verdad eres muy buena, me gusto mucho tu estilo, soy de México y me llama mucho la atencio el hula hoop, cuanto tiempo llebas practicando con el hula??

buena vibra y mucha suerte en todo :)

[TwilightFadez]

Intriguing. . .

[Marta180993]

u have such a great hooping style, btw have u been doing belly dance?

[HoopCharmer]

@Marta180993

I started to work on belly dance recently, but not when this video was shot. I think belly dance and hooping look amazing together!

[Marta180993]

@HoopCharmer oh ok cool :) i thought u did that before cuz in the video some of your moves are alike belly dance :) and I as well think that belly dance and hula hooping are great together =) keep on good work and sorry for my english, im polish hehe :)

[Iceprincess94b]

I've been hooping for a few months now, and i have to say, I love your style.. You're a real inspiration. happy hooping <3

[HoopCharmer]

@Iceprincess94b Thank you! The best thing I could ask for is to inspire others! Enjoy your hoop path!  :-)

[MrSamuel1414]

There are times in ones life where we conceptualize what the true art of beauty is. I have seen it. It is very rare. Maybe only once in a lifetime. So watch this video again and witness for yourself, perhaps one of the most entrancing and amazing beauties this world has to offer. I dare anyone to debate me on that. You are a true gift, and thank you for sharing who you are!

[HoopCharmer]

@MrSamuel1414 Wow. I am absolutely honored by that comment. Thank you!

[MrSamuel1414]

@HoopCharmer You are so welcome!! I have never seen a more perfect example of created beauty. Some call me the Profit....I think it is silly but the name stuck. That being said, you have a raw symbiotic flow that connects to your environment like water to a fish. I only pray that i can see it live one day.  Take care!! :)

[lmbym69]

I think I've probably watched this video about 100 times now - one of my favs - SO good!

[HoopCharmer]

@lmbym69 Hell yes! Thanks for enjoying it so much!

[brittaneeeee]

Ok, awesome. Im a beginner hooper and i started out with a big hoop - the girl who has hoop classes where i live says its easier to start out with . but im looking into getting her to make me a smaller one for the summer - and thats the size i want :) thanks.

[HoopCharmer]

@brittaneeeee Sweet, Im glad that helps. The thing with hooping is that you always evolve. You will go through lots of different sized hoops along your path. Enjoy!

[brittaneeeee]

What size is your hoop ?

[HoopCharmer]

@brittaneeeee in this video it was a 35 inch 100 psi

[JArtistandYogini]

:) rock on! thanks for the inspiration!

[HoopCharmer]

@JArtistandYogini You are absolutely welcome! Thank you!

[lmbym69]

You are phenomenal! Love love love love love!

[HoopCharmer]

@lmbym69 Aww... LOVE LOVE LOVE right back at you! :-)

[sexyrikku]

As always you make movement a beautiful work of art!

[HoopCharmer]

:-) Thank you!

[Hulaqueenpa556]

omg, i am only twelve, but i have been hooping for only one week, and i am amazed by you!!!!!! you are amazing!! u inspired me to start hula hooping, my freind told me to check u up on utube!

[HoopCharmer]

Thats awesome! Im so happy youre inspired! Its great that youre starting so young! You can be amazing one day! Practice! :-)

[Soulspin84]

Love this vid so much. you look so beautiful, where are those trousers from? love em!

[HoopCharmer]

Thank you! I get the pants from Melodia Designs. Just google it. :-)

[WharfRat44]

Hey girrrl. How long have you been hooping when you made this video? :) and tips on the elbow transfers? i can do it standing up straight, but have been having a hard time doing it leaning over towards the ground... hmm :/ I know it's just practice, but any tips though haha

[HoopCharmer]

I guess Id been hooping about 5 years when I made this video.. On and off for the first 2. Much more focused in the more recent 3.

If you can already do the transfers standing, then you can do them leaning too. Just watch your planes, practice, and don't give up! Thats what it comes down to! :-) You can do it!

[psyche027]

@WharfRat44 Wow! that's weird! I can do them leaning over but find it impossible to do them standing up straight. Go figure! lol Maybe we can give each other some advice. lol

[groovingrl18]

Hey there!  What size and weight is your hoop is in this vid?

[HoopCharmer]

Its 100psi, 35 inch

[JaviAirhead]

You are pure skill! 0:24-0:28= awesome :D

[EUROTRASHDJ]

Always puts me in a trance. Nice job.

[HoopCharmer]

Rock on! Thank you! :-)

[MadMasker38]

Bad ass!

great work, and huge flow. i love how technical you are with your space use and arm work. keep it up, the circus needs you!

[HoopCharmer]

Thank you! :-)

[fuckamerica109]

holy shit how does she do that

[HoopCharmer]

hehe! Practice, patience and passion! :-)

[stormiegem]

WOW You are AMAZING!!!! and a charmer to say the least... i have been watching your videos for about 45 mins now... I gotta get to sleep!

[HoopCharmer]

Yay! Thank you for enjoying them so much and spending your time with them! :-)

[cadkins45]

WHOA are you kidding me right now at 2:26 a double elbow behind your back without having it fly across the yard?!?! WOW Mixtape status!

[HoopCharmer]

hehe! Thanks! That's one of my favs! :-)

[flutterbee103]

lovin all the slow mo editing. You're fAnTiSticK and you completely take hooping higher! I don't know if that's possible...but if it is you got it down for sure. Thank you for inspiring me everytime I watch one of your vid. }i{ smiles all around }i{

[HoopCharmer]

Hi Flutterbee! Thank you for the kind words! Keep watchin! We all inspire each other!

[flutterbee103]

what size hoop are you using in this one? also, what is the model name for your psi hoop in the lumi love vid? Just wondering because I was looking at the psi's and have no idea which one and I love the way the colors are in yours.

[HoopCharmer]

In this video the hoop is 100psi, 35 inch.

In the Lumi Love vid the hoop was a combo of dragonfly and elfin ring.

[igby42]

You are awesome. Thanks so much for posting this. I'm gonna go grab my hoop right now!

[HoopCharmer]

Awesome! Hoop it up! Thanks!

[Thenettis]

Im sorry, but I haaaaaaave to comment again, this video is absolutely my favorite hooping video out of all that I have seen. Its hoopers like you that help keep me motivated. Ive gotta learn some of those tricks you do, you make them look so easy!

[HoopCharmer]

:-) No need for apologies! Thank you for appreciating! You can do it! Just practice and believe in yourself!

[MichalaDancer]

Wow.... and that's about all I can say! I am a hooping newbie and this vid really makes me wanna get up and hoop! And expand my CD collection to include some more Miguel Migs ;)

[HoopCharmer]

Thats what I want to hear!  Get up and hoop! :-) Great music and hoops! Thank you!

[cognizance]

[jbernard52]

[HoopCharmer]

[flamehead339]

[HoopCharmer]

Thanks!  :-)

[HoopCharmer]

Yay! Im happy youre re-inspired! As a hooper, I think we all go through slow times when we feel stuck. I come back and watch hooping vids that I love, and that always creates re-inspiration! :-)

[ladylambhulla]

that was wonderful! as others inspire you through these threads ill say it again thanks for inspiring me. ive put down the hoop for a couple of weeks i felt like iw as at a stopping point but ive picked it back up and found new things that i didnt do before and you just added to my excitement. many hoops and love linz

[scenebarbie]

Your Amazing girl.

As I've said a million times before

I Love you because you give me inspiration

[HoopCharmer]

Thank you Kryssilove!  :-)

[ssuperdorkwad]

--Laura "Baila"

[HoopCharmer]

Awesome! Thank you! :-)

[UnityTheGypsyQueen]

Beautiful as always!!

[HoopCharmer]

:-) Likewise~

[stringsdiving]

I always like the music you choose. Wish I could do the step through back and fourth like at 2:11

[HoopCharmer]

Thanks! You can! Just keep working on it, and remember to focus on your timing..

[autofocusoff]

also when you grab the hoop right under your butt (basically) make sure your receiving hand is AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE to your other hand so that you don't throw off the center of the hoop by grabbing in front of you instead of right down between your legs there by bringing it forward.
