What exactly is a Fitness Hoop Workout?
A revolutionary exercise concept (yes, we get the pun), that delivers a trim tummy, strong muscles in the lower back and abdomen, and toned glutes, hips and thighs. It's a core workout... and so much more.
Due to their weight and large diameter, weighted fitness hula hoops are easy for all to master. Hooping provides balanced, symmetrical training to the core muscles, which helps maintain spinal stability and alignment. Your class members will quickly notice a difference in your posture and muscle tone – and may lose inches in a very short space of time. Our workout instructors consistently report improved class attendance and member retention.
Teaching weighted hoop fitness is fun, profitable, and emotionally and physically rewarding – it's an exercise class that you will love teaching and your members will love taking.
