What is Hoopnastics?
The Hoopnastics Body Makeover Method is a physician-designed no-impact extraordinarily effective and safe series of orthopedic movements that use a fitness hoop to incorporate interval training with resistance training. The unique exercise method fuses legendary fitness techniques from ballet, rhythmic gymnastics, pilates and yoga to firm, lengthen, and shape the body while creating superb balance, posture, pelvic floor strength, flexibility and endurance… the result is a body that looks and moves 10 years younger! The routine works joints through a full range of motion to keep your body limber and flexible while the controlled movements and weight bearing exercises strengthen and tone every major muscle in your body. Best of all, it’s a fitness program that can be adapted to all ages (from 25 to 65!) and all fitness levels.
