It has been a LONG winter! I don’t know about you, but I need some inspiration to GET UP and MOVE!
Last weekend, after one of my private training sessions, I stayed up at The HoopShack and practiced, to get my energy and motivation level back up for the spring and summer. I have added a couple of new videos to YouTube from that practice. During this one, in particular, I share some tips to help inspire you, too. Throughout it, you’ll see tips and thoughts so you can learn more how to structure your own hoop practice.
This will give you some insight into what’s going on in my mind as I dance with my hoop. On this particular day, I was very tired before I started this hoopdance. I had already been hooping about 30 minutes. My playlist was on random selections…Uptown Funk made me want to keep moving, though. So, from that, I pushed on.
I am noticing that I do not have the same “get up and go” as I did when I was 47…but that’s OK. Point is, I am up and moving. It takes me longer to get motivated, but one of the biggest things that helps is playing some music!
Turn it up. Grab your hoop. Move your feet. Hoop more if you can. If not, there’s so much more to do by just holding the hoop.
No waist hooping required. Remember that.
Are you inspired yet?
Hope so! Let me know how I can help!

Yay Geri! I love love love it! You inspire me always! I haven’t been able to watch this through until just now, sitting here at my desk, and believe me, I was dancing to it right here 🙂 I want to learn this routine so so bad. I love the hints you’ve inserted throughout the video too! When this song comes on I start dancing and it is a workout just by itself.
I’ve actually lost probably about 60 lbs since you saw me last, so it’s getting easier for me to exercise, now I need to start toning it up. I’ll be practicing every day, trying to imitate your moves. I know, I know, gotta work up to it…baby steps to start, and warm ups to begin with. Dangit I wish we lived closer!
Love you and all you do Geri <3 <3

OH, LeeAnne! I love hearing from you and it makes me SO happy to know that this inspires you to move WITH me, learning the moves. YES, baby steps, but my goodness! You’ve lost all that weight and you are up dancing!? How AWESOME! You are doing it RIGHT! Thanks for all the feedback…makes me know that I need to keep doing more videos that will hit the mark on motivation and inspiration. WE ARE NEVER TO YOUNG…no excuses EVER to get up and move! Love you! ~ g
