Hoop BOTH Ways!
QUESTION: Should you just hoop in one direction?
ANSWER: Hoop BOTH Ways!
Here’s why you should expand your hoop dance to utilize Both Directions (hooping to the right AND hooping to the left).
Hoop Both Ways…It Has It’s Benefits!
- Work your Body.
If you lifted weights, you probably wouldn’t just do right arm bicep curls. You’d work both sides equally, for strength and balance. When you practice utilizing both sides, you train your body to develop stronger muscle memory. - Work your Brain.
The right side of your brain controls the left side of your body, and vice versa. Also, when you challenge your brain with new learning, you create new neural pathways. - Variety and Expansion.
If you are able to get into a variety of moves from both directions, you will exceptionally expand what’s possible in your hooping practice. - Extra Ah-Ha Moments!
You may get something on your non-dominant side that you were previously struggling with when you were hooping in your comfort zone, aka “favorite side.”
Hooping in your “favorite” or “dominant” side is often referred to as your “current.” I like to hoop in both currents. I also highly encourage my students to regularly hoop in both directions. It increases what’s easily possible and accessible. If you can only get into a move or transition from one direction, then you limit your flow dance options to only what feels comfortable and accessible from your favorite direction. By working both directions while hooping, your creativity can become exponential!
How to get that “other side” when it doesn’t feel as natural?
Often we refer to our opposite current as our “bad side.” Those words actually makes me cringe, because that side did nothing wrong to deserve that ill-fated moniker, other than it doesn’t get much practice time. Also when you keep speaking those words, you can come to believe it as truth. And it’s just not fair to put something down about yourself.
So I call my so-called non-dominant side, “My Side That Needs a Little Extra Love.” So give that side more rotations, so that it does feel more comfortable. Muscle memory takes time and repetition. Practice is the key. It may not feel great while you’re first trying it, but as you practice, it will start to feel more natural, and eventually even second nature!
Warm, Cozy, and Stuck
Lastly, know that your current/dominant side can become a warm and cozy comfort zone. Sometimes of not trying new things. It can also become a rut where you get stuck. Often we develop an unconscious habit of how to do something. If you are stuck getting a new move, switch up the direction, or side, that you are trying it on. When you engage in this “beginner mind” methodology, you are way more open to discovering and trying a new technique, than the habitual patterned brain is.
Enjoy hooping in both directions. May your fun incorporating both sides, build your hoop dance tool box of possibilities.

How To Get The Most Out of Workshops and Events
Going to a great workshop, conference, or learning event?
Here’s 8 of my favorite ways to get the most out of the conference/event/workshops you’ve invested your valuable time, money and energy into.
1.) Take a notebook…take actual notes and make some stick figure illustrations to help you with positioning, movement, direction, things that make sense to you, etc.
2.) Take video of the summaries, if you can. Make sure you do NOT post these anywhere, as that’s the instructor’s livelihood.
3.) If you can, get video of Yourself doing/demonstrating the moves, or even explaining it, that’s really helpful! Part of the reason is that your brain will be spinning with all the new info you will learn in those many learning moments.
Plus, the videos will help you remember that you actually DID get these moves (at least once in the workshops!), and are possible again, with patience, and lots of practice.
4.) Review your favorite parts you want to remember right away…it’ll help you retain the information.
5.) If you can, teach your new information to someone else, that will also help solidify the info even deeper so it stays in your mental toolbox. Make sure you credit your source, and just share some key key points, or cool moves, not the whole workshop, so people are interested in studying with that instructor when they can.
6.) Another note that I’ve kept true to for many, many years…Pick “one golden nugget,” just for you, from each thing you go to. That will serve you well over time, and help you feel better when you can’t remember it all (but paid to be there and participated!).
7.) Meet others, and get their contact info!* You may end up having them as a friend for years to come, as a colleague to share notes and review with, and to expand your community connection. So many wins!
8.) BONUS TIP: Always have fun. You’ll be happy to remember something you really enjoyed.
If you put these 8 tips into play, you will retain new information Sooooo much better, gain fabulous friends, and really get the most value that you can possibly can from all of your experiences!

Drop Your Hoop…It’s Good For You!
Ever DROP your hoop?
Feel bad about it? Don’t. So Drop your hoop…It’s Good For You!
Here’s why…
I have a joke I often tell people that relates to hooping: Notice that they call it “yoga practice.” It is NOT called “yoga perfection.”
It’s in the trying that we learn the most. Especially cool new moves that come from saving the hoop (a.k.a. recoveries). So revel in dropping your hoop…because as I also often say, “If you aren’t dropping your hoop, you aren’t trying anything NEW!”♥
*Here’s an example of one of many performances over the years I’ve been hooping, where I dropped my hoop. Mortifying on stage during the moment…but how you recover is everything–whether people feel bad for you or are happy that you handled it well. I happen to love this video because I was performing in front of my hooping peers and was trying so many new moves that I had just learned at that Spin Summit.
Plus I really got into the campiness and fun of doing the dance–and that was what really mattered…not that I dropped my hoop and miraculously I was able to get it handed back quickly and continue with two hoops (with a little help!).
Keep practicing. Keep dropping your hula hoop, and trying again. Keep smiling!

“You don’t have to be miraculous, you just need to be an awesome YOU!” ~Che’ Rippinger
Let’s balance Expectations with Reality …
But HOW??
Meditation: Getting quiet and in tune with your breath.
Tapping: Amplifying the good or releasing what no longer serves you using a tapping method on certain acupressure meridian points.
Mindfulness: Being in the moment with appreciation, gratitude and presence. Not wandering on the other things you want to say or need to do.
Three Points of Positive Focus:
1. Focus on the Good, so you magnetize more of that to you.
2. Focus on what you’ve accomplished, rather than all the things left to do. Try not to “should” all over yourself!
3. Focus on what you Want, not on what you don’t want. Because the universe can’t take a joke. It has more of a dry British sense of literal humor.
♥ Laughter Yoga Breathing Exercise: Smile Breath. Deep breathing in a big smile and releasing the happiness molecules on your exhale.

Hoop Love Ya’ll Show ~ Boss
In This “Boss!” Theme Show Episode/Topics:
Like a Boss!–Do you feel “Like a Boss?” Here’s how you can find your way to develop more self confidence (it may not be the “control” you seek, but control is usually an illusion). Also learn how to stop second guessing yourself through research, meditation, and your own inner awareness.♥ Hoop Love, Ya’ll~Che’
Hoop Love Ya’ll Show
Health, Humor and Hooping with Che’ Rippinger of Hip The Hoopla
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
♥ Cute Pet Cameo with Kitty Capri ♥
Figure out what makes YOU feel like a Boss*!
*Hint*: it’s different for everyone.
And if you can’t figure it out, or even if you do, “Fake it till you make it.”
What’s up with the power of Boots (a little purposeful flip to the advice of my high school English/Speech Teacher).
“BOSS Boosts” Examples (for me): pinstripes, putting my hair up, and wearing boots all make me feel pretty darn “Boss.”
♦ ♦ ♦ How to stop Second Guessing Yourself:
♦ 1. Research – If you don’t know, find out. Not all the sources will match and you will have to hone in on what you feel is right for YOU.
♦ 2. Meditate/Go Within ~ Get quiet and go within your own center. Distill down the information for your needs. Finding the right path for you, may be very different than for someone else.
♦ 3. Getting That Sense of Self ~ You already know the answer, if you just get quiet and still with your own inner voice. And maybe the assistance of some helpful ancestor angels. Pay attention to the signs around you–especially if you asked, let the universe get an answer or two to you–Even if it’s not the one you were expecting or wanting.
♥ Laughter Yoga Breathing Exercise with Super Hero Power Pose ♥ Try it…It’s FUN!!!
♦♦♦The “Hook Hand” Hoop Saving/Recovery/Transition Trick / Move Tutorial:
♦ 1. Find the inner space circle of your hoop
♦ 2. “Hook” your hand into that circle.
♦ 3. Keep moving with your hoop and continue the flow. Use your pinky and thumb to break/stop hoop twirl and send in other direction.
♦ 4. Make any hoop outta control movements, oops, or mistakes look like “I meant to do that!” …with attitude!
Additional Inspiration/Quotations:
♦ “When you drop your hoop (or screw up in any way), act like you Meant to do that!” ~ Che’ Rippinger
♦ “I am not bossy. I am the BOSS.” ~Mug wisdom
♦ “Fake it til you make it.” ~Old show biz and business saying
