A hoop and a song

Camo-lot
 What do you do when things go wrong? You can wish for better days, but instead of wishing, take action and make it happen. Exercise has been shown to improve mood, and other benefits such as improved fitness can help us take on what life dishes out.

Lift some weights, climb ropes, go for a run, take a hike or hoop it out. Hula hooping, or hoopdance is exercise yes... effective for weight loss or maintenance and also resetting your entire mood and outlook. But we call it fun. Exercise can be a turn-off for some people who envision endless hours going nowhere on a treadmill. So let's just call it play, shall we? The correctly sized adult hoop will serve you well, but you can also take it a step further and choose one that expresses your personality. Then all you need are the songs that move you, and the smiles will come. It doesn't matter how old you are or what you can do. Reconnect with the inner child we all have. The key is believing -- but don't wait! A healthier mind and body comes from your own actions, and won't arrive as if by magic. Try it today. Take a hoop for a spin, and turn back the clock!

Behold! Your queen...
All color combinations available on non-collapsible adult hoops, 4-piece sectional hoops, and 8-piece travel hoops. Camo-lot (white/grey camouflage with gold glitter) and Warrior Princess (pink camo with silver glitter, not pictured) are limited edition hoops. Standard size is 42", and varying sizes smaller and larger are available, based on your needs today. 8-piece hoops can be used with fewer sections, so as your ability increases, the size can decrease without getting another hoop. Quite possibly, a "happily ever after" for you and your hoop.
You can get your hoop from this Moxie Fantasy Series in the hoop style of your choice, or any other available color combination by clicking here or going to the Shop page.

One Size Does Not Fit All

The hoop you buy today should be a comfortable fit for you. Avoid buying one that is too small for your ability today. Think about tomorrow, later. The key now is to have fun and success today and you can, with hoop sizes that are available for everyone. 

One size does not fit all. Just because a standard size is 40" or 41", doesn't mean it will work for you. Nor should you fight today with a hoop that is an inch or two small. You shouldn't buy shoes that are too small (I don't care how CUTE they are), so why would you buy a hoop that's too small?

The beauty of Hoopnotica's new Breakaway and Forties hoops, is they change in size along with your ability. Moxie has just stocked a limited number of these. A Hoopnotica Breakaway is a very versatile hoop that can begin at 44" for a gentle learning experience, shrink to 40" when you get stronger, and yet again to 36" when you are ready for an intermediate challenge! So if you love it, you don't have to leave it behind. The hoop changes with you. 

Another benefit to the Breakaway, is the addition of an optional polypro FitNHoop that fits INSIDE! The FitNHoop adds just enough weight to your Hoopnotica FiT regimen to benefit your off-body moves, or slow the hoop on the body. And the best part of all, is when you are ready for advanced hooping, the FitNHoop is a lightweight polypro hoop that goes solo! What's more, the FitNHoop is also designed to go smaller should you desire. I always say "no hooper left behind", but the new designs from Hoopnotica mean that "no HOOP left behind" can also be true. They're your dance partners for life!

Moxie has The Betsey Breakaway hoop, named after Betsey Johnson, the fashion designer behind dresses with delightful sass and flash. Why limit that to just what you wear? 

Also in limited quantity, is Hoopnotica's Dreamweaver hoop, from their Forties designs. Forties are a standard 40 inches and can also be used with an extender that brings the size to 44". Moxie promotes hooping for everyone, in all shapes and sizes. Thus, if a gentler experience is needed, a larger hoop is encouraged. One size does not fit all. The Dreamweaver goes back to the original 40" with the extender removed, when you're ready!

Hoopnotica's hoops are handmade in California, and they can make just about anything you want if you ask them. Here in Michigan, Moxie also has custom made-to-order hoops. So if a Hoopnotica hoop you want is out of stock here, or you need your own size, Moxie can make one that is just for you. Hoop couture! Who knew?

See the Shop page to purchase our select Hoopnotica hoops, or to learn more about Moxie's custom hoops.
