“Sometimes you have to jump through hoops to reach your goals.” ~Che’ Rippinger
Travel Tips with Health, Humor and Hooping
HEALTH: Self Care. Bring your own healthy stuff when traveling. Food, water, vitamins, creature comforts, pillow, mattress pad, towels. You may think they have or sell it there, but you may be wrong, and compromised in health or happiness, as a result.
HUMOR: Bring your sense of humor while traveling. You may not have the things you need or the things you want, but being able to laugh at all the adventures life throws at you will help make it more fun, and laughable later.
HOOPING:
1.) Bring your travel hoop.
2.) “Let your freak flag fly.”
3.) “Sometimes you have to jump through hoops to reach your goals.” ~Che’s advice
♦♦♦Hoop Trick Tutorials: “Portal/Horizontal Step Through:”
♦ 1. Hoop in right hand. Hinge hoop to the left.
♦ 2. Left pointed foot and leg start through hoop.
♦ 3. Dive head into hoop and move hoop to the right, over body.
♦ 4. Pull hoop over Right leg and on out…Ta-Da!!!
“Hoop Jump Through”:
♦ 1. Hold hoop horizontally in right hand.
♦ 2. As you bring hoop into body horizontally, step closest foot into the hoop first (right foot), and then other foot into the hoop (left foot)….
–OR–
Jump both feet into the hoop at same time.
♦3. Pull hoop up and over head or continue on with whatever move you like. Combo idea in the video with a tap, toss and catch.
Hooping at Stugis:

Hoop Love Ya’ll Show~ProTips Theme
In This “ProTips” Show Episode/Topics:
ProTips–Yes you can bang your head against the wall and figure it out yourself…OR you can call in a “professional” and shortcut your learning curve or get it done better, cheaper or perhaps just faster. This can be for your house, car, eating, hooping or whatever you want to improve. Here’s 3 ProTips aka “keys” to help you.
Hoop Love Ya’ll Show
Health, Humor and Hooping with Che’ Rippinger of Hip The Hoopla
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
3 Things to Remember about Going Pro:
♦ 1. Hire A Pro – You can do this before, during or after beating you head against the self learning/do-it-yourself way. Make sure your pro is good or comes with recommendations (and remember, with a few bad reviews in a sea of good–not everyone likes everything or can be pleased to their expectations). Hire a pro if you want to shortcut your learning/getting s*** done process.
Secret FYI Pro Tip: “Just because someone calls themself a ‘Pro,’ doesn’t mean they’re good at their job, it just means they get paid/money for it.”~Che’ Rippinger
♦ 2. Right Tool For The Right Job ~ Like a Hammer versus a Screwdriver, ask what’s your intent/purpose and get the right tool (ask a pro for some advice!) for the right job.
Examples: Hoop sizes based on your needs/ how you hoop/ what you are going to do with it/ how you will treat it.
Foods to fuel your body Twinkie versus an organic apple.
♦ 3. A Pro Is NOT A Miracle Worker ~ YOU still have to do the work, put in the practice, maintain, or know about the task, thing or service.
Example: Dad and the oil change–know some basics.
♦♦♦Leg Hooping Tips and Techniques:
Inspired by and dedicated to our Fab Over 40 Hoop Community on Facebook. My “nemisis move that took me a whole YEAR to get!”
♦ 1. Leg hooping
♦ 2. Kickup
♦ 3. Shimmy
Additional Inspiration/Quotations:
♦ “I’m a professional. Don’t try this at home.” ~ Che’s mug
♦ “Just because someone claims to be a pro, doesn’t mean they’re good at their job.” ~Che’ Rippinger

Hoop Love Ya’ll Show~Help
Hoop Love Ya’ll Show
Health, Humor and Hooping with Che’ Rippinger of Hip The Hoopla
In This “Help” Show Episode/Topics:
Help–You CAN do it all yourself, or you can take a big time/effort/expense shortcut and seek help~Expert, Network & Intuitive. Plus some helpful hooping recovery techniques that can help with learning many more moves. And a little Laughter Yoga to help reduce stress and increase your happiness.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
3 Kinds of Help:
♦ 1. Expert – Someone who has spent years of studuing or has a lot more experience that you do can b-line your learning time by a lot. TIP: make sure they are reputable~just because someone is a “professional,” does not mean that they are good at what they do (it just means they take in money for it).
Example: I do a complimentary Hoop Consultation, which can save you a great deal of time and money, since I’ve already spent a lot of both of those learning what I could give you the “Cliff Notes” for!
♦ 2. Network ~ Your family, friends and colleagues can be an excellent resource for things you may need help in, anything from getting a new product to more major life dilemmas.
Example: When my mom had cancer and finally did ask for help, her family, friends and employees all stepped up in amazing ways with all kinds of recommendations, time and effort to make her journey a little easier and a lot less lonely and scary.
♦ 3. Intuitive ~ Tap into the internal messages that the combo of your brain and heart are telling you…AKA your “Gut Reaction.” If you don’t know, pick one and see how it sits with you. You’ll find if you really tune in, you will know. Also pay attention to signs and symbols–these may be your angels networking to get you some intuitive “hits.”
Example: Angel “hits” when deciding what to do…tap in and listen, because they are conspiring for you, if you let them.
♦♦♦3 Very Helpful Recovery Hooping Tips and Techniques:
Besides learning and practice, these three recovery techniques will be the successful foundation for most all further hoop dance growth and experience, especially for on-body hooping. (All demonstrated and taught on the video)
♦ 1. Speed Up
♦ 2. Duck In
♦ 3. Turn WITH the hoop rotation
Additional Inspiration/Quotations:
♦ “I get by with a little help from my friends” ~ John Lennon
♦ “Never let your ego get in the way of asking for help when in desperate need. We have all been helped at a point in our lives.” ~ Edmond Mbiaka
♦ My T-shirt motivation for the day: Sparkly heart (tap into your heart) with wings (listen to your angels!)
♦ “Do you want to learn this the easy way, or the long way?! Your choice.”~Che’ Rippinger, Chief Hooping Officer at Hip The Hoopla

Hoop Love Ya’ll Show-Expansion
Hoop Love Ya’ll Show ~ Expansion Theme
Health, Humor and Hooping Tips and Tricks with Che’ Rippinger
In This Show Episode: Expansion (from limitation)–my constricted dietary journey with new health lessons & yum to try sugar substitutes, “Limiting” hooping – expansion moves from floor positions-including nose hooping!
~ Hoop Love, Ya’ll!~Che’ Rippinger of Hip The Hoopla
Enjoy & tune in weekly~Thank You!
Expansion (from Limitation) Topics in This Episode:
•Health Tips – Laughter Yoga Breathing exercises:
Laughter Yoga Breathing Exercises-Fountain Laughter and New “Nose & Belly Breathing” technique.
• Health Information – My personal health challenge journey with Candida and doing a sugar cleanse and elimination “diet”–
Expanding my knowledge of body, gut and food, including new things to try with a limited list of “You can eat this, you cannot eat that.”
•Hooping Tricks, Tips and Techniques: Expansion from Limitation hooping
Try floor hooping and exploring the variety of hoop moves from the ground
Wall plane, wheel plane, isolations and variations, breaks and paddles, folds, twisties, head hooping, and even NOSE hooping! (3rd try is a charm!)
Local: “Expansion from Limitation” Hoop Workshop Tuesday, 3/113/18 6:30pm at Namaste Studio, 701 Garrison Street, Lakewood, Colorado 80215, USA (and online class offerings, too!).
…Plus some sweet kitty Capri and puppy cameos to get you smiling/laughing!
•Yum To Try/Helpful and Healthful recommendations*:
1. Zevia Zero Calorie Soda-
A light tasting very yummy NO-sugar, no-caffeine, comes in many flavors, NATURAL alternative. A nice sweet treat instead of the mainstream immune system hindering sodas and pops containing high sugar/corn syrup/toxic aspartame/chemical sweetener .
2. Organic Lemon Juice (bottled) and organic lemons
You can grate the lemon zest for a lovely lemon aroma and flavor to many dishes from veggies, main course, to desserts and sugar free, high alkaline drink (water is still #1 in healthy)!
3. Coconut Amino Acids
Super yum and a great sweet & salty alternative to soy sauce and soy amino acids–tastes like Teriyaki sauce!
*Of Course: check with your doctor before trying any of these for yourself. Everyone and body is different, and reacts differently depending on when you take things, in what quatities and in combination with other things–so do be careful and do your own research. These are helpful for *me* and are things I’ve learned through having a health food store with my mom, and learning a lot along the way from other sources as well.
YUM TO TRY Recipes!
♥ Sautéd Veggies with Coconut Amino Acids:
• Pour 1-2 Tablespoons of Avocado or Olive oil in a stove top pan over medium heat.
•Add your favorite cut up veggies of your choice to pan (like sliced up brussels sprout, onion, in order of density and cooking time needed–add minced, crushed or fine sliced garlic last and greens that can wilt in like kale which is pretty hearty, then spinach which is more tender).
• Add tumeric with ground pepper to taste for great health benefits and maximum benefit/absorption.
• For extra flavor sprinkle some fresh (bottled works well, too–go for the organic) lemon zest and/or lemon juice.
♥ “Gourmet” Popcorn :
• 2 Tablespoons Organic Coconut oil in a lid handy large pan/pot.
• Add 1/4-1/2 cup of popcorn and Cover with a lid and cook over high heat until popping diminishes (and before it starts to smoke/burn!)
(I’m going to try popping Sorghum kernels as a corn alternative–but you have to constantly keep that moving so it doesn’t burn!)
• Add some great spices afterwards! Try a Mexican blend with chili powder (start with a little, you can always add more!), paprika (especially smoked!) and onion salt, or cinnamon and stevia, or a kettle sweet and salty taste treat spraying a fine mist of coconut amino acids over and shuffling the mix until lightly coated (but not soaked!)

Health & Humor-
• Laughter Yoga Breathing Exercise
• Health Tips – Tapping–“release and peace” short tapping introduction and tapping example session, Recommending Nick Ortner for great Tapping books, videos, etc.
…Plus Several very silly Pet Cameos that includes kitty Capri, Shiva, Caly and visiting big pup Brown!
Helpful and Healthful To Try / Health Recommendations*-
• Lavender–several helpful tips and tricks I use and how you can incorporate them for your daily life (including de-stressing a trip to the dentist), Dr. Bronner’s Lavender Organic Hand Sanitizer and trying lavender in a tincture or tea.
• Kava–great for relaxation, sleep and de-stressing. Demonstration on how I use the tincture. My experience with trying out the new local Mad Hatters Kava Bar with fun flow and hoop friends. (https://www.facebook.com/madhattersmilehigh)
• 5HTP–My all natural “happy pill(s)” which actually can help you sleep. (all of these do not have a “sleep hangover” or drowsiness upon waking component like other medications can).
• Calcium/Magnesium/Zinc–Great for helping with sleep and reducing the lactic acid buildup that creates sore muscles.
*Of Course: check with your doctor before trying any of these for yourself. Everyone and body is different, and reacts differently depending on when you take things, in what quatities and in combination with other things–so do be careful and do your own research. These are helpful for *me* and are things I’ve learned through having a health food store with my mom, and learning a lot along the way from other sources as well.
Hooping Tips and Tricks/Hoop Hacks-
• Wonderful World of Wedgies and Escalators–several helpful tips and tricks I use and have learned (advice from Nick Guzzardo, Valentina of Twisted Orbit and Emma Kenna) and how you can incorporate them for your daily life (and go on to create or learn new variations with these as a base.)
I like using the grip escalator when releasing my hoop isn’t a safe option. Be careful when working on wedgies repeatedly as they can bruise your inner thighs, and that’s painful and no fun!

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:
