[@Hoopwithsupriya]

Awesome. Let me know how it goes. Happy Hooping :)

Hi Supriya, thank you for that tutorial. I have watched some others before, but did not unterstand, how to hold my hand when lifting up the hoop while doing the vortex. I watched some parts of your video with reduced speed, now I understand it and the vortex works (not so smooth, but I think that it is only a matter of time to learn it). Greetings from Germany :-)

[@Hoopwithsupriya]

So happy to hear that! Lots of love. Happy hooping! Glad you found this helpful

[@Hoopwithsupriya]

Was just curious. Are you able to rock it now considering it has been some time? :D

[@lopitapatnaik7558]

I was learning along with watching it, not as smooth as you doing but hope i will do it soon 😭

[@Hoopwithsupriya]

Lopita Patnaik it takes a little bit of more practise but I am sure you will be rocking it soon 😇

Hello Supriya. Big fan of your videos. I have a standard HDPE hoop from hula hoops India and it weighs 450g. I’m finding it hard to keep the hoop up after grabbing it coz of the weight. Do u think I need a lighter polypropylene hoop to do these tricks ?

[@Hoopwithsupriya]

Not sure how I missed your comment here. I just responded to a similar question here up in the comments trail. Please take a look Surabhi's comment :) Hope This helps. Practise with HDPE only to begin with if you wish to develop strength in the process. Lighter weight hoops are easier to lift up for sure :)

Hi Supriya, Nice lessons!! could you please let me know from where did you buy this hoop?is it available online?

[@Hoopwithsupriya]

Vinita Gehani Hello Vinita, yes they are available at @hulahoopsindia.Just call Mr Bhatia- [phone] and give my reference code Supriya100 to buy a hoop. You will also get a discount ;)

[@SurabhiMahata]

Hi Supriya. I'm unable to hold the hoop horizontally after grabbing it behind my back. Do you think it's just a matter of practice or will taping it provide a better grip?

[@Hoopwithsupriya]

Don't worry about it Surabhi. Like you identified yourself, it is just a matter of practise. You can do some arm raises holding the hoop facing horizontally along the sides of your body. Raise your arms up and down form both the hands to develop the strength you need to lift the hoop. Eventually as you keep practising you would be able to guide yourself better :) Best wishes for your hoop journey :)

[@SurabhiMahata]

Hoopwithsupriya got it! Thanks!

[@priyankasaraf4562]

Hi Supriya, for this float-up, if my hoop is circling towards the right (clockwise) on my waist, do I have to use my left hand? Because if I use my right hand, I ll have to change the hoop movement to clockwise. Or is that how it is supposed to be?

[@priyankasaraf4562]

Btw, thanks again! Your videos are so helpful..

[@Hoopwithsupriya]

Yes, when the hoop moves clockwise use your left hand and when the hoop goes anti clockwise use right hand. 😇

[@Hoopwithsupriya]

Priyanka Saraf Thank you so much 😇 Glad to hear that.

[@PunyaArora]

Aaahhhh when will I do this without making faces and not smooth?! Hahahah! I’m not even kidding when I tell you, I practice this move everyday and still not smooth 🙈 but atleast I’m doing it now...yay😬

[@Hoopwithsupriya]

Punya Arora you said it. You will do it 🤗💜 Just keep practising. You have got the technique right 💪👏

[@palakforyou]

Where did you get that hoop though ? 💜

[@Hoopwithsupriya]

My hoop falls down every time what should i do for it ?

[@Hoopwithsupriya]

When you are doing waist hooping or this trick?

[@balwinderkaurdhaliwal8465]

When i am doing vortex

[@Hoopwithsupriya]

@@balwinderkaurdhaliwal8465 You need to do some hand strengthening exercise with the hoop to develop strength first. You should try holding the hoop in a horizontal plane from the hand you want to attempt picking up the hoop for vortex. Hold the hoop up to your shoulder level keeping the hoop in a horizontal plane , do 10 reps on each side and over a period of time you would understand how much grip and strength is required to keep the hoop in a horizontal plane. Once you start feeling confident about this then try again. Hope it helps. Happy hooping!
