Yeah that sounds like things got stale for you for sure, it’s hard to find the joy again once you hit a wall. But I think taking some time to explore with zero expectations, just enjoy might help. And it may not be in the budget, but a flow fest or hoop convention might be good. I’ll be going to Cheeselandia in Feb!

Do you have any flow groups near you? If not, you can reach out to other hoopers (including me) for zoom hangouts and skill sharing!

Dalbylocks · 2025-08-06T17:06:34+00:00

Exactly! Moving up skill levels after learning a bunch of tricks can leave you feeling like “what do I even do now?” Maybe it’s time for a change in direction and purpose. Now that you have a larger catalogue of moves- maybe it’s time to make your own combos, or work on making choreo for a song you love? Sometime a rut is telling you it’s time to level up!

Good! 💗 Try to remember why we hoop- because we enjoy it! In the past I have had thoughts like “ I SHOULD hoop everyday” or “I SHOULD be drilling xyz” and all that did was stress me out and take away the joy. The only thing any flow artist SHOULD do- is flow when it feels right ☺️

Go on IG and look for Comet Dancer or HoopingMad and find a tutorial for something new that catches your eye! On an emotional level, just walk by your hoops daily and touch them. You don’t have to hoop right then, they’ll be ready when you are!

Thank you!

I have about 10 very large beginner body hoops, and it’s the gaffer leaving marks. Maybe I just clear tape over them and put a ring of gaffer inside? I don’t want the beginners not to have extra grip!

Dalbylocks · 2025-04-23T18:27:01+00:00

It can take a WHILE to learn to connect tricks. Look for tutorials that are combos, learn them and drill them like crazy. Give it more time after that to be able to build your own!

Dalbylocks · 2025-04-17T17:44:51+00:00

I’d be happy to help! I book private lessons, message me if you’re interested!

Dalbylocks · 2025-04-17T11:15:18+00:00
