New Hoop Love Ya’ll Show ~
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’

Hula Hoop Hand Grips for Interesting Hoop Dance Variations
Here’s a short tutorial video on several hoop hand grip positions with Hip The Hoopla’s Che’ Rippinger. Note: I use the names of these grips as Emma Kenna teaches–because I love the accuracy in her fun descriptions, and she is a total enjoyable hoot–plus I love to credit the original source!

Hand Grip Variations Video Tutorial Link
FOR THESE HAND GRIP TECHNIQUES:
There aren’t any prerequisite moves that you need to have accomplished first for these hand grips. Just know that they do flow together with each half turn, and can be used interchangeably in your hoop dance flow session. It’s good to know these on both hands, and going in both directions on each hand–so your possibilities for combining them and creating variations on new moves and dance combinations, is endless!
HOOP DANCE TIPS:
Please warm up and cool down (head to toe!) to keep your body safe and hooping longer, hydrate, and take it sloooow! Make sure you have a nice dance posture: stand tall, shoulders back, chest and head lifted, abdominal wall in, pelvis tucked under, and a slight bend in the knees. Dancer/Boxer feet–keep your weight shifted forward on the balls of your feet, rather than resting back on your heels–easier for nimble movement. Try everything *without* the hoop first. Next, just hold the hoop and do the moves. Then get your fancier hoop moves in while coordinating with some basic stepping or fancy footwork dance combinations. Bring all you have to the table–your personal style, experience and sass! Stay positive and give yourself lots of credit for any and all progress! Keep a hoop notebook and take a couple of moments to write down tips and tricks that are helpful for you. Then review them right then and there, and a few minutes the next day…etc. You’ll be amazed at your progress! Please post how you are doing. Grab a buddy and stay accountable to another.

ARM DANCE & HOOPING TIPS:
Use “Ballet/Belly dance arms” for strength conditioning and pretty flow with your hoop dancing–head lifted high, neck long, shoulders pressed Down (they’ll want to float up), elbows a little lower than shoulders, wrists a little lower than elbows…and hands a touch lower than wrists-. Make sure to have the arms reaching long and extending into a large curve (like holding a body-sized beach ball).
“Poi Arm Airplane” has the arms flowing with arms straight out and equidistant to each other the whole time throughout your movement. Try twisting the body to get the arms moving as if you are sandwiched in between two walls. FYI–your planes that you are flowing in are going to change from wheel to wall plane as you twist your body.
“Snake Arms” are really luscious to do~remember elbow leads up (slightly, like a few inches), and elbow leads down.
FORESHADOWING NOTE: We are working on hands for DAY 6 of this Hoop Dance Challenge.

CHEST and CORE HOOPING TIPS:
Core hooping uses a lot of muscles and is a great internal organ massage. There are two methodologies for getting chest hooping. Warming up with and using a chest isolation* (horizontal rotation) will improve your body movement skills greatly as well as coordination (*Make sure you bend the knees and use hands on hips to give you a good press into the stretch movement and more range of motion). A side to side push movement may prove easier–both are valid ways to get there. I find that most people learn “chest hooping” easier with the arms out and up above the head. This lets you concentrate on just the chest hooping movement first. The “Hot Stove” technique is a fun way to get your hand(s) and arm(s) into the hoop, to get “shoulder hooping.” Getting that alternating shoulder shrug action going will help maintain chest hooping and also help keep the hoop up (your hula hoop will “ladder” itself back up with that motion if/when it starts going down). Core hooping uses a big muscle group, so try not to hoop to exhaustion or for really long time periods (break it up with other moves), so you can live to hoop another day!
HOOP DANCE TIPS:
Please warm up and cool down (head to toe!) to keep your body safe and hooping longer, hydrate, and take it sloooow! Make sure you have a nice dance posture: stand tall, shoulders back, chest and head lifted, abdominal wall in, pelvis tucked under and a slight bend in the knees.

HIP & BOOTIE HOOPING TIPS:
Keep your knees slightly bent so you have more room for the hips to move, rotate, shimmy, etc. Keep smiling–you are working your tushie–so have some fun with it and cut loose with your hips. There are lots of ways to do these moves, whether you have belly dance experience or not. The variations on these are endless–especially when you combine your body movements with hoop tricks. Remember this is about bringing DANCE (with fun and your unique personality) into your hooping–not just tricks. A hip scarf is fun for practice with coins or fringe–hearing jingling or seeing that flowy movement. Sometimes it can hinder your on-body hooping a bit though unless you have some inner hoop grip tape lining or turn in the direction your hoop is spinning to give yourself more time to move with a slower hoop rotation.
☺Some Fun Bootie Synonyms:
Rump, badunkadunk, bum, rear, heinie, butt, rear end, (the A part of T & A), keister, junk in the trunk, tail end, and caboose. And I call it a “bootie shelf,” lol so shake it if you’ve got it!
HOOP DANCE TIPS:
Please warm up and cool down (head to toe!) to keep your body safe and hooping longer, hydrate, and take it sloooow! Make sure you have a nice dance posture: stand tall, shoulders back, chest and head lifted, abdominal wall in, pelvis tucked under and a slight bend in the knees. Dancer/Boxer feet–keep your weight shifted forward on the balls of your feet rather than resting back on your heels–easier for nimble movement. Try everything *without* the hoop first. Next, just hold the hoop and do the moves. Then get your fancier hoop moves in while coordinating with some basic stepping or fancy footwork dance combinations. Bring all you have to the table–your personal style, experience and sass! Stay positive and give yourself lots of credit for any and all progress! Keep a hoop notebook and take a couple of moments to write down tips and tricks that are helpful for you. Then review them right then and there, and a few minutes the next day…etc. You’ll be amazed at your progress! Please post how you are doing. Grab a buddy and stay accountable to another. And Please Share! Thanks So Much for watching! Subscribe to this channel here and our informative hoop circle news via e-mail at www.HipTheHoopla.com
