Hooping, DVD on hooping, hoop warms-ups and practice
Lesson Outline
Today's class focused on hooping. We watched a beginner's hooping DVD and went along with the warm-ups and practice. Both Anna and Quinn were very attentive and followed along with the DVD. I brought in 3 new hoops (different sizes) today, so they had the opportunity to practice arm hooping. The last 10 minutes were free play with the hoops. Quinn and Anna both enjoyed challenging themselves jumping through hoops that I held high.
