I’m going to go to the Hoop Jam at Dovercourt tomorrow night. Anyone care to join me? (It’s free!)
I am going to say this right up front: I plan on looking absolutely ridiculous. I’ve tried this before. I had (wrongly) assumed my fabulously generous waist:hip ratio would be of benefit. I thought it was going to be easy-peasy! Ha ha! I was surprised to discover that hooping was harder than I remembered it. But it’s really fun (trust me on this), and it will give you a really good workout. (It’s supposed to be really good for your core.)
It’s this Friday (October 24), from 18:00 – 19:30 in the Assembly Hall at Dovercourt
This from their website:
Drop in to practice your hoop moves, groove to the tunes, meet other hoopers, or maybe try it for the first time! Bring your own hoop, or use one of ours.*
*Don’t bring your kid’s dollar store plastic hoop! If you don’t have your own fitness hoop do use one of Dovercourt’s. They’re larger and heavier … made especially for grown-ups who have fond memories of hula hooping as eight-year olds. ;)
So who’s with me? Turtlehead? BeachMama? Miss Vicky? Veg? I promise it will be fun!
