These hula hoop classes in Sydney are both fun and challenging with the goal of developing further upon beginner level tricks, learning transitions and working towards learning a group hoop dance sequence together!
Hooping is a super fun way to stay fit while developing coordination, stamina, balance, and rhythm. Once the initiate moves into a space of relaxation and comfort with learning new skills, and encountering feelings of excitement and joy whilst discovering opportunities to let go of the 'mind stuff' and float into a peaceful state of meditation. This 'turning off the mind' and 'switching on the body’ (also know as achieving the "flow state") is true as we develop body consciousness while spinning into core strength and centeredness.
