I remember a time not too many years ago when I used to used to tell people we had a hula hooping company and people would laugh.That or I would get comment's like "oh that's cute". Many were skeptical were in fact a real business... As our company has grown not only have we had the business of growing our business but we have have had the added challenge of showing people that Hooping is more than just a "fitness trend": it is a true practice and a lifestyle. This lifestyle has in improved countless people's state of mind and overall health, has given them a sense of purpose, new friends, new-found confidence, and for many even, the career of their dreams. Once they realized that this wasn't a joke, they looked very concerned and asked how that worked. Now a days, nine times out of ten when people hear what we do at Hoopnotica their response is, Oh, I keep hearing about that....I've been meaning to pick up a hoop..Why Become a Hoopnotica Instructor?

Ivy suffers from MS and discovered hooping when brainstorming creative ways to exercise and stay active after a difficult hip surgery. Ivy was seeking a way to stay fit without putting stress on her joints... and hooping did the trick and got her her much needed cardio that was missing from her wellness routine! Ivy is an inspiration to her devout Clean Cuisine community and to us as well. We at Hoopnotica have been devouring Ivy's book co-written with her husband Dr. Andrew Larson, Clean Cuisine: An 8-Week Anti-Inflammatory Nutrition Program That Will Change the Way You Age, Look, and Feel.Learn more about how hooping fits into Ivy's clean cuisine lifestyle here.
