  • Don't you have dvd tutorials for sale?

  • @Spacebirdn Nope, I'm offering online hoop dancing classes through Hoop City.ca

  • As of 3 months ago I couldn't even hula hoop around my waist, but your infamous hooping video inspired me to learn and I was determined to get this shoulder trick down to impress audiences. Now, thanks to you, not only can I hoop around my shoulder consistently (among many other tricks), I have also lost a total of 22lbs! Thank-you for being my inspiration <3

  • Wow!

    That's such great news! Keep at it girl and dance with your sexy self!

    Much love,

  • Hi Sandra, thanks so much for these videos! I'm at 2 weeks of hooping and I can now say I can successfully dance with a hoop :)

    However with this trick, I can never nail it, I can do both 'warm-ups' separately, but when I try the trick, the hoop always flies off my shoulder, any tips for that? So far I'm just doing the trick with my arm up so I don't injure someone/something. Thanks :D

  • Be sure you're lifting your shoulder up high and watch out for bending over too much. If you curve your shoulder forward the hoop will end up flying off, so be sure you're lifting straight up.

    Much love,

    SaFire

  • I'm pretty sure it's not the shoulder trick that makes people randomly propose to you, Sandra...

  • But 1 week later.... I DID IT!! Thank you soooooo much! I'm so proud! It's a very good thing I "documented even though I do not plan to share." (you are wise beyond your years!) :)

  • I somehow almost broke my nose trying this... I dont even know what I did wrong! this hurts, tho!!!!

  • But I do have a question... I hoop to my left, yet I do this trick on my right shoulder...hmm why can't I get it properly on my left shoulder...~trying again~ :oP

  • Me tooo!!!! now I can't stop :o)

  • Yay! I did it! I feel like a million bucks! Thanks so much!

  • Thanks so much! Took me a few hours but I got it! And I only smashed myself in the face like 8 times. lol
