Hey hoopers, want to know how to get your hoop from your knees to your waist? check out this tutorial, knees up to waist ua-cam.com/video/V9QXQu8p_uw/v-deo.html and let me know how it feels in the comments below!
I took a semester of hoop dance and never got the hang of leg hooping. I haven't hooped in a year and a half. Started back recently, decided I'd try leg hooping again, and your video helped me do better than I ever have before! Thank you!
I've finally worked up the courage to take up dance hooping recently and your videos have truly been the key to my success, very in depth and helpful. Can't thank you enough! -love+light, Lauren
my leg hooping improved more in the half hour after watching this video than it has in the seven years that i have been hooping. i was mediocre, and now i am getting so that i can time the raising and lowering to the beats of the music i'm using. thank you!
Can I just thank you for this video? I've only been hooping for three weeks and I'm really struggling with getting anything achieved. I look like a spaz, but after just ten minutes of watching the tips in this video I've managed to get the hoop around my legs and knees without dropping it, and without sticking my arse out a mile. Thanks you for your comprehensive instructions! Finally, I understand!
I've been able to leg hoop for about 4 months now (6 months in!), and recently haven't been able to bring my hoop back up from my knees, and I COULDN'T for the life of me figure out why. You mentioned the importance of keeping posture, and I realized that was my problem. I keep looking down to watch, and no matter how much I shimmied or kicked it just would. Not. Work. It left me exhausted and frustrated to no end. So thank you very much! I'm glad I'm able to get back into the swing of things, and now know how to practice leg/knee hooping in reverse.
Thank you! Yes hoop LOVE skin! You will find it easier with shorts because you can feel the hoop on your legs much better and because hoops grip to skin better than most fabrics. It is not impossible to hoop with long pants it just takes a lots more energy Good luck!!
Deanne, Thank you so much for all your tutorials! I'm a beginner and I have been stalking hooping tutorials on youtube like crazy and I have found yours to be the most helpful and easiest to learn from! You are a great teacher!
The tip to take off your pants really works lol I'm able to maintain the hoop in that "no go zone" most of the time after just one practice session. That's probably one of the best tips for this trick.
Watched your video. You do so well and made it look so simple I thought I would have it on my first try. I got my wake up call to what a master you are. Thank you for all your tips and tricks. I'm thinking I'll be trying this daily. That's how I learned waist and hip hooping. Doing a 30 minutes a day for 30 days. I also love, love love your tricks on getting the hoop from the floor. So many things you taught us in this video. I'm going to try, try again until at last I succeed. I will. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Thank you for this. Been trying to learn leg hooping for months and this really helped me! Managed to move it up my leg just about. What you said about moving above the hoop really helped, a light bulb moment!
Wow! Thank you I have had the hardest time learning to leg hoop even after countless friends tried to help, but your video is very straight forward and had me on track instantly!
Deanne - your teaching ability is RIGHT ON! wow! I stumbled upon your videos by accident and I am thrilled to have found you. Thank you for sharing all of this. I also signed up for your newsletter. Yes - I am a newbie to hooping. I like it for the hypnotic state it can put you in when you hoop hard. again - thanks
I picked up some of your classes on HoopLovers.tv yesterday and actually knee....errr LEG hooped for the first time with *intention*. I've always gotten it to spin 1-2 times when the hoop is falling off and I'm trying whatever I can to save it, but this time I actually got it going for well over 10 revolutions. Here to figure out how to progress from that point :)
thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou! I have taken a few months off from hooping :( and I am just getting back into the swing again! never figured out knee hooping before so now is the time! I took off my pants like you said and WOOHOO!! it's coming along :) :) thanks!
I’ve been an excellent waist hooper my entire life but I just can’t seem to hoop anywhere below my butt or above my waist. sooo frustrating. but tysm for your tutorial. was more helpful than any other video I have seen
I love every second of your videos! You've inspired me to build my own hoops and start from scratch. Even though this is far away you make it seem possible. Thank you so much for making all of these fantastic tutorials.
i find helpful when im leg hooping to isolate my legs from rest of the body, it reminds me of moving your ear only trick, like everything else in hoop dance :)) even the whole body moves, truth is only legs should be moved by you
Deanne you are amazing powerhouse! 🍒 Thank you for your instruction and your LOVE!!🙏 ** My boyfriend says " I could listen to that voice all day..." 😛🤭
I accidentally leg hooped while hoop dancing in my living room earlier... but once I tried practicing more, no luck! It's so hard LOL but i'll keep practicing. Love your videos!
I have watched several leg hooping tutorials and still was pretty much panicking every time it got below my butt. I watched this video and thought "I'm not sure that really helps me know HOW to actually do it though..." But this morning, it didn't take five minutes before I was easily hooping around my knees, and within a half hour I was able to control around the thighs and butt to bring it back up. I was stunned; it was like the skill just transferred from the video into my body without needing anything from me.
You are really awesome! This is the best tutorial ever. I think i'll become an expert using the pick up tricks because I just can't do it! Why can I hoop whit my knees when I'm using shorts, but when I use pants, jeans, leggings or anything longer I can't do it? Sorry if my speeling isn't that good, I speak spanish.
my daughter is 9 years old she tried the hula hoop legs at could not do it the videos makes it seem so easy but by train it its so hard. My daughter likes the videos gymnastics video's hula hoop.
Where are you located? There are many online sellers of adult size hula hoops around the world. Etsy is pretty global or Hooplovers if you are in Australia
My hooping friend gets hers back up by kicking it harder with the top of one of her thighs at the right times (kinda like the shoulder hooping shimmy). She tried to teach me it but i just couldn't get it, I'll try your "innerspiral" method.
I’m not sure if anyone is still answering on this thread. I’ve been following you for a week now trying to get my hoop to drop and just stay there let alone trying to get it back up. Is there any connection seeing I’m using a 3 pound weighted hoop and yours looks like it’s a simple standard hoop?? Hhhmmm, I’m going to stick with this and hoping...hooping. Lol, I can manage to let mine drop a little only just can’t get it to shimmy up an inch, let alone back to my waist. Hhmmmm, I seem to be losing so far but I’ve got high expectations and am dying to get mine moving up instead of winding back completely down. Any helpful hints are greatly appreciated bcuz no doubt that you make it look like child’s play. Love your videos 💕!! Good on everyone that’s moved past this annoying point!
I missed your comment last week. How is your practice going? Yes it can feel frustrating but with practice, great posture, maybe some fun music and giving yourself enough time to build strength and stamina it will all start to feel a little easier. The body needs time to find it's rhythm. Posture and timing are your two biggest friends at this stage. Play with timing, don't be afraid to let the hoop drop and close your eyes to feel connection with your hoop. A heavier hoop can be challenging but not impossible. Be mindful not to bruise yourself with such a heavy hoop, take good care and don't give up xx
I love videos :) I only can do the legs and knees hooping if im wearing shorts, but i want do it also with pants or jeans, can you give me tips for that?
I am a beginner, started with weighted hoop. While waist hooping came naturally with weighted hoop, I am not able to leg hoop or shoulder hoop. Is there any specific tip for weighted hoop?
i have scar tissue and nerve damage on my right knee…. any advice for leg hooping with a sensitive knee? what to wear, any techniques etc.. thank you ^^
Be extremely gentle and only do it for very short periods, if at all. You don't want to cause any pain. A light hoop may be difficult to spin at first but it may save you from any damage...perhaps try a light weight polypro hoop and take care!!
your hoops are very good to learn but we have only plastic hoop so please go in plastic hoop or else you are must to say in which app you are buying the hoops& what is the name of your hoops it will be use full to learn your tricks
Hey! Oh wise hoop lady ...Would you be able to do a more in depth trouble shooting knee hooping video please please please? I can't be the only person who straight up just can't do it...? I can hoop on my thighs confidently and on each knee individually but not both knees together?! I can't for the life of me break it down. Knee hooping = pain + tears ...
When the hoop comes down to my knees, it begins to bounce to the front and to the back instead of going round. What can I do to prevent that from happening?
Cool! Sometimes my whole class just takes their pants off ;) Maybe not acceptable at the park or gym but perfectly OK in the privacy of your own hoop space :)
How the heck are you doing it in those leggings?! A few days back I finally got the hoop down and up, but I had to do it with completely bare legs :D I can only hope that it comes with practice.

Best advice I have heard..move the body part above hoop to move it ....I don't even know why I didn't think of that. ❤

She tried to teach me it but i just couldn't get it, I'll try your "innerspiral" method.
My daughter is having trouble controlling bringing her hoop down her legs and back up - she is 7 and just learning - any suggestions?
Thank you so much! I finally got it after this.
Very clever!
do you have a video that shows how to start from the floor to your knees?
I’m not sure if anyone is still answering on this thread. I’ve been following you for a week now trying to get my hoop to drop and just stay there let alone trying to get it back up.

Thank u for teaching. But im practicing to hula hoop it from knees to upper body
Incredibly helpful! Thank you!
This helped me so much.
Thank YOU!!
would you recommend using your heavier hoop or lighter hoop for learning?
I love videos :)
I only can do the legs and knees hooping if im wearing shorts, but i want do it also with pants or jeans, can you give me tips for that?
Super funny video! Thank you so much for this, it helps a lot!
SUPER AWESOME!
ok, so.. I'm trying leg hooping but as soon as I lower the hoop above my knees it just slides down my legs. Why does that happen usually?
Great! Thank you for the tips!
Do you do any other work outs or excersicing besides hooping??
Awesome, I love your tutorials n.n
I can't seem to get the hoop to keep going once it drops below my pretty large booty.... any advice?
Would you recommend starting with a polypro or hdpe?
I just got my first hoop but I am nervous it may be too thick for tricks. Is that possible? Or can I still work with it?
Superrrrrrr !!! I need practice ! Thanks
I am a beginner, started with weighted hoop. While waist hooping came naturally with weighted hoop, I am not able to leg hoop or shoulder hoop. Is there any specific tip for weighted hoop?

Yes, I have pain behind my knee because I have been practicing a lot
Yes yes!! I did it thank you 😊 😁😃😆
Awesome !
your hoops are very good to learn but we have only plastic hoop so please go in plastic hoop or else you are must to say in which app you are buying the hoops& what is the name of your hoops it will be use full to learn your tricks
i was trying to do it on my legs and knee but i kept failing what to do in order to get it done better
Hey! Oh wise hoop lady ...Would you be able to do a more in depth trouble shooting knee hooping video please please please? I can't be the only person who straight up just can't do it...?

Thankyou
WHY DON'T YOUR VIDEOS HAVE MORE VIEWS!!!
Amazing
Thank u
My hoop never gets going fast enough to where it stays above my knees. Any tips?
When the hoop comes down to my knees, it begins to bounce to the front and to the back instead of going round. What can I do to prevent that from happening?
I love you!!
I can't get it up!!
Cool! Sometimes my whole class just takes their pants off ;) Maybe not acceptable at the park or gym but perfectly OK in the privacy of your own hoop space :)
Ive been trying and trying and trying to knee hoop but can't yet, grrr.
How the heck are you doing it in those leggings?! A few days back I finally got the hoop down and up, but I had to do it with completely bare legs :D I can only hope that it comes with practice.
Oh congrats! Yes everything comes with practice. Hoops love skin but it’s possible to hoop on any fabric. Sounds like you are improving fabulously !!
where can I get these hoops? ima beginner
