Excellent learning DVDMar 06, 2007
By H. Mahan
"there is no authority but you"
Great DVD for learning new tricks and making hoop dance exhilerating. I enjoyed the combos at the end of the selections to see how the tricks can flow together. The slow motion and multiple camera angles were perfect for learning the moves. I've never used a DVD for reference like this one. My workouts are no longer "workouts". Your DVD got me fianlly dancing and feeling good about it :)

 All the Basic Hoop Moves and more!Jan 07, 2008
By J. Anderson
"jennaluna"
this is such a great way to learn hooping if you can't get to a class....actually it's also a nice reference even if you can! I have taken a few hooping classes, but I am still learning soooo much from this video.
I saw that an earlier reviewer was upset that it wasn't a workout video...well I get a workout from doing it, but it mostly is about teaching you the moves for beautiful flowing hoopdance, which is a workout and a wonderful way to exercise...once you watch this a couple of times, you have a new workout that can always be expanded upon with all the moves on here!
Christabel is a shining light and she explains the moves very well, repeating them and showing them in slow-motion.
Happy Hooping!

Fantastic for BeginnersFeb 02, 2007
By Kenneth M. Masters
I have watched HoopGirl's dvd so many times now. It is by far the best tool I've used to learn hooping, in addition to going to workshops and classes. She breaks each move down very well. The settings are fantastic, and her costumes are really inspiring. I took notes, and practiced from them. I highly recommend her dvd.

Excellent for the novice hooperFeb 11, 2007
By C. O'Shea
"O'Shea"
There are 3 reasons why I found this dvd to be a great beginner's dvd - 1) I love how you have the option of viewing it all the way through or each individual chapter/move. I can watch each move and repeat the move over and over. Trust me, it is a work out practicing these moves over and over again.
2) I love the way HoopGirl has set up some combo's for me to use. It is a great starting point and shows how the moves can flow, 3) the performance part of the dvd is not only fun to watch, but inspiring. It is all about practice and flow with hoopdancing. My recommendation is to watch the dvd all the way through a few times.. it gives you a better understanding of the moves, the names of the moves, and how to flow into them. If you get on Hoopgirl website, she also has music links that are wonderful to use for practice.

Fantastic Hooping Instructional DVD!Jun 02, 2009
By Allison Miller
"BloomHoops"
After taking a HoopGirl workout series class from Heather Troy in Santa Cruz, CA, I sadly had to go back home to Sacramento where there were no HoopGirl teachers, nor many hoopers that I knew of, so as soon as I got home, I ordered a copy of the HoopGirl HoopDance for Beginners DVD to be my hooping companion.
Throughout that summer following my initial exposure to hooping, this DVD was on repeat over and over again on my TV, so that I could practice the moves and become a "real' hooper. If you don't have a teacher in your area and you want to learn the basics (and beyond!) of hoopdance and hooping "tricks" then you've found the right DVD. The beautiful scenery, the costuming and the performers are a treat for the eyes; for hoopers and non-hoopers alike!
And besides, what other hooping DVD gives you 30 moves on ONE DVD? I've tried the Hoopnotica DVDs and a few others, and I was really disappointed with the limited number of moves that were demonstrated. This DVD is worth every penny ;-)
