Health, Humor and Hooping Tips and Tricks with Che’ Rippinger
In This Show Episode we cover a Laughter Yoga Exercise, Several Healthy Recommendations including a Cider Vinegar Detox Drink (with recipe), Isolation Hooping Tutorial…Plus a great dog hoop trick! Enjoy & tune in weekly~Thank You. In~joy Episode 1!
Health & Humor-
Laughter Yoga “Fountain Laughter” Exercise
Recommendations-
Raw Organic Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple Cider Vinegar Detox Drink Recipe (below)
Tulsi Sweet Rose Tea with Holy Basil
Trader Joe’s Chile Lime Seasoning Blend
Hooping Tips and Tricks-
Isolations-one and two handed, plus variations
Plus Pet Cameos including a dog jumping Hoop Trick!
Yum To Try:
Here’s the Drinking Vinegar Recipe that tried, actually liked, and recommended in the video. I adapted for what I have on hand. Feel free to adjust this for yourself depending on what ingredients you have available in your fridge.
Pretty Yummy Apple Cider Vinegar Detox Drink
1 Tbsp Raw Organic Apple Cider Vinegar
1 small packet of Stevia (or liquid stevia)
1 tsp-1 Tbsp lemon juice (to taste)
1/4 – 1/2 cup other juice (veggie juice with some fruit is nice)
1 cup or so of high alkaline good water
Put all in a bottle, shake and enjoy! Hint: don’t brush your teeth right before drinking this. Also, because of the juice, try rinsing your mouth with warm water after drinking as to protect your tooth enamel more (I had to watch doing lemon in water because it made my teeth ultra sensitive). If you would like to use this as a digestive aid, it’s recommended to drink 20 minutes before you eat, so try it before your breakfast for a wake-up pick-up beverage. You can make it in advance to make it easier to grab-and-go.

Happy Healthy Leg Hooping Tips, Tricks and Q & A
Happy Healthy Leg Hooping Tips, Tricks and Q & A
With Ché Rippinger of Hip The Hoopla
This Week’s Hoopspirational Hoop Booty Camp check in includes great hoop tricks and tips, floorwork, leg hooping vs. knee hooping (for Ashley Larson), breaks & paddles, question on hoop size, hooping safety tips, healthy cooking tips (including my yum corn & quinoa chowda this weekend (Yum Cooking performance art recipe below), greek yogurt, silent laughter and even an extra doggie hoop trick! Sorry the tech pixilates the video a bit, but this content rocks–and there’s lots of humor! Remember, “leg hooping” took me a YEAR to learn, so be patient with yourself, with floor, leg or dirty pizza toss leg hooping, starts and recovery moves. Hoop Love, Ya’ll! ~Che’ … your happy hooping humorist ♥
Corn & Quinoa Chowda Recipe by Che’ Rippinger
(Disclaimer…my cooking is “Performance Art,” meaning it’s on the fly, with what I have in my fridge/pantry/stock. Go ahead and experiment (as you might with leg hooping) with some changes…no guarantees on how it will turn out, but mine was not only raved about by one of my husbands friends, but also I ate this for the next several meals including breakfast –an entire snowy Sunday with multiple trips back to the crock. I ate 2/3 of a big crock–myself in 1 1/2 days–it was that delish! This is sure to fuel your leg hooping and floorwork practice with love and joy.
Throw in a crock pot on high…
2 packages of frozen corn kernels (splurge for the yummy organic if you can)
1 cup ground corn meal (I used Bob’s Red Mill)
1 cup or so of quinoa (I used a tri-color, which was lovely)
1 chopped up onion (cut up thicker if you like chunky soup)
1 small container of marscapone cheese (you can sub in cream cheese)
At least 3 cups of a Liquid of your choice (can combine): water, stock (veggie works great), unsweetened plain almond milk (or other alternative “milks” like cashew, soy, rice etc, or dairy milk if you like)
Spices to taste (start with a pinch, you can always add more!), including/suggested:
White pepper
Tumeric
Chili Power (just a pinch–it will get spicier the more you heat it!)
Paprika
Onion powder
Garlic powder
Save the salt for the end of cooking or as a garnish–and you’ll be able to taste it better and use much actual salt which equals less sodium (more bang for your salt buck!)
Thoroughly heat on high if you want to eat it faster, or let it simmer all day on low if you want to come home to a “welcome to dinner” fabulous smelling kitchen. You can use an immersion blender for a little bit, or blend about 1/4-1/3 of the soup in a blender (be very careful blending hot liquid–it can explode out the top of your blender and can burn you)
*Serving suggestions* Make it pretty and even more tasty:
Put in a beautiful bowl, drizzle with a good olive oil, and sprinkle with black lava salt, and a bit of yummy nutritional yeast flakes, sun-dried tomatoes, and garnish with a dollop of Greek yogurt and a pinch of paprika or chili powder on top.
Biscuits are a great carb-overloading side to this, or go green with some steamed broccoli, or nice salad. I made this soup to share, and I ended up eating most of it myself! In~Joy! ~Che’

Che Rippinger Interviewed on 103.5 The Fox Radio
Che’ Rippinger Interviewed on 103.5 The Fox for Hooping Idol 7
Famed D.J. Uncle Nasty of 103.5 The Fox radio station in Denver, Colorado got in a quick radio interview bumper right before voting closed for Hooping Idol 7 Goth Week. Che Rippinger is one of the 15 current participants, down from the original 21 talented hoop dancers selected from around the world for the international hula hoop dance competition.
Hooping Idol kind of like American Idol. But instead of singing a killer song, the contestants have to select music, coordinate talent, costumes and whatever’s needed, plus shoot, edit, and upload, the highest quality hoop dance music video possible, all according to a theme…in less than 4 days!! No Pressure, there.
Ms. Rippinger was so happy to get the call, and try to speak as concisely and quickly as possible for the short radio bumper. Uncle Nasty and the staff at The Fox, as it’s known in Denver, got the interview up on air, and also posted to their Facebook page–in less than a 1/2 hour–which is super speedy in media time.
Here’s the Short Radio Interview:

A Peek Into Hooping Idol 7 – 70’s Week
Welcome to the official week 1 of Hooping Idol 7! Here’s a little behind the scenes of my personal journey here.
I’m so honored and amazed to be a part of this worldwide competition…the most important event happening in our planetary hoop community right now! There are 21 contestants with such different backgrounds, countries, styles and skills.
Why watch a bunch of hula hoopers do their thing, American Idol style? Well, it’s very entertaining to watch the videos for one. And the reason why you should, is to vote. There are 4 judges for Hooping Idol 7 who are not only famous for what they do, they are extremely respected in our field, aka “hooping.” Anah Reichenbach, Babz Robinson, Lisa Lottie and Lila Chupa-Hoops will critique all of our videos and judge on: 1. Theme 2. Skills/Flow and 3. Presentation.
It’s quite the challenge to produce a whole story video, complete with a theme, costumes, videography, location scouting, asking for help, getting techie, shooting, editing and uploading…in 4 days! Yep our first video was due on Easter Sunday. No Easter-egging for me this year. I missed chewing off some chocolate bunny ears and my hubby’s 2 big music gigs, trying to get final shots, switching and learning new editing software, and losing most of my finished edited file, while my software crashed over and over and over (I made it into a drinking game, without actually drinking!).
So some funny things happened during my video taping…not the least of which was not funny…getting stopped by a cop/state trooper.
Me, pleading,”I was doing it for my art, officer. Do you want to see the video??”–Officer on a nice BMW motorcycle, “No, you just absolutely can’t be here, ma’mme.” Me, “That’s a gorgeous motorcycle officer.” –it was! He left and I shot a tiny bit more outside of the arbitrary self standing 30 foot of miscelaneous fencing–footage I used, thank goodness!
Weather–pretty gorgeous for the most part…but…We had wind. That makes dealing with light silk veils and hoop release moves, really, really entertaining for retakes!
I started feeling sorry for supermodels. They get to go to exotic locations and be stunningly beautiful, but you don’t see what they have to do to get certain creative shots–ridiculous poses, adverse conditions, etc. Now I’m realizing for real, these are hilarious, hard, and sometimes…an itsy bit dangerous. Really, don’t try some of this at home, lol–just hide the breakables–just saying.
I welcome (sort of, lol) getting out of my comfort zone. Though, this is like stepping out on steroids, with Red Bull, and triple espresso! “Eeeeeeeeeek!” which I reiterated, from one of my fellow contestants.
Luckily the Hooping Idol 7 entrants are extremely supportive of one another in a private Facebook group. Boy when they say no one else knows what’s going on for each of us like our fellow competitors, that is SO true! It’s a secret lounge, so that info gets to stay in Vegas.
Oh, also, I talked to a very pro videographer yesterday who had all to do to not laugh out loud for my request for this assignment: Him: “This will take about a month and around $400-$500.”
Me: “Well I have a “no to low” budget, and it’s due tonight, what would you recommend instead for a video novice that has to learn software and produce a video before my deadline?”
Him: “Adobe Creative Cloud–use a student address and get a great discount otherwise it’s $50 a month.”
Me: In my head, Uh, well I already spent money on an expensive software that doesn’t work for this and Adobe is for uh, pros…and although I can get there, probably not TODAY.
What I actually said, “well I respect what you do, and thank you for your time.” (Yes I studied this stuff in college for my degree, but that was a long time ago, several careers back, and technology has gone through a time warp of amazing new things coming out daily! Yes there’s an ap for that, I tried many, but don’t have a lot of time to piddle around and experiment.)
So that’s it for me at the moment. It’s the wee hours of the night…aka Morning. This roller coaster ride just started. I hope to hang on for dear life, while learning and growing at hyperspeed!
Hey, remember, with your help, I can move on. 6 talented people get cut THIS WEEK! So Please Vote at www.Hooping.org on the “70’s Week video page” when it’s up which will have the specific directions. I’ll post the specific link when I get the info ♥ Thank you in advance ♥
In case you are wondering, without further ado…here’s my entry to enjoy. See if you can spot the cop scene, or if it got edited out!
Also, Yes, I actually do have this album, though I had to borrow a record player. It was my momma’s who this video is dedicated to ♥
