I need to get back into hula hoop dance this year. It really helps with my arthritis, does amazing things for my mental health, and it's one thing I'm not embarrassed about if someone sees me.

My autistic self abhors being OBSERVED. But my fat middle-aged body delights in having someone not know how I can make the hoop dance all around me like that!

The secret is having the right size hoop. Adults will be fighting the laws of physics with a hoop made for preschoolers.

With the right size hoop, then it's just patience and being mindful of how your body can move. I do off-body moves because waist hooping screws with my hip.
