While hooping, I have extended periods of what Tolle likes to refer to as "no-mind"...and also moments of overwhelming bliss.
And while my practice is not necessarily trick-centered, I did feel proud when today I was able to do a "Kick-Start" for the first time to raise the hoop from the floor to my knees, and eventually, waist. I only got the move a few times, and I bruised up my ankle in the process, but it feels good sometime just to prove to ourselves that we CAN learn something new.
Here is a link to a video which really helped me with break down the move so that it was finally do-able:
My next goal is to master keeping several hoops spinning at once (at knees, waist, upper torso, and raised arm/hand), and to do so with grace and fluidity...
I am thinking I will need 4 hoops that are all the same size and weight to make it easier!
Wish me luck!
