Learn to hoop while giving back!
We offer engaging hoop lessons for children in grades K-5. Part of each session will be devoted to talking about giving back to the community. The children then decide together on which organization a portion of the proceeds will go to. We also do birthday parties, Girl/Boy Scout troop meetings, and for parents that are interested in learning as well, we offer Mommy or Daddy and Me classes!
What is hooping?
We take hula-hooping to the next level! Hooping is an aerobic art form that combines hula-hooping and dance. The child sized hoops we provide are slightly weighted and have colorful grip tape that appeal to all styles. Hooping builds core strength and works muscles all throughout the body. In addition to the physical benefits, hooping is so much fun that those who engage in the activity report increased happiness and confidence!
Hooping from the Heart
During each session, our instructor will read books and have discussions about what it means to be a citizen. Based on the children’s age and interests, we will explore ways of making a difference in our community. Donations have been made from our hoopers to organizations such as World Wildlife Fund, White Plains Hospital Frontline Workers, Feeding Westchester, and more.
Our Story
Hello, and welcome to Hula-Hoop for Hope!
My name is Sasha Forman. I am the founder of Hula-Hoop for Hope. I fell in love with hooping when I was about 5 years old and haven’t stopped since! During the summer of 2020 after children had been isolated for months on end, I wanted to spread the love of hooping to children in my neighborhood. I combined my passion of dancing in the hoop with my passion for helping others, and Hula-Hoop for Hope was born. I held classes outside of a local school and before I knew it, my classes were filling up! It makes our team so happy to watch the confidence of our students grow with each passing class. Through hooping, children set goals and continue to persevere in order to reach them. Seeing the joy on the faces of our students, hearing their laughter, and watching them make new friends, is priceless! I am beyond grateful for the opportunity of working with these amazing children.
Peace, love, hoops,
Sasha
