## What is Learn to Hoop?

"Learn to Hoop" is an app that will take you from the very basics to a high level of hooping with clear, easy-to-follow instructions with video and text.

For over 15 years, Peachysteve has been teaching people juggling, object swinging and manipulation, and in that time has developed techniques to help people to easily understand how to go about learning new skills. "Learn to Hoop" will have you spinning your hoop in minutes, and addicted in just a few more.

Each move is shown from multiple angles. Slow motion sequences help to make things even clearer and there are step by step instructions for each move.

Subtitles show the instructions during the videos, and more detailed instructions are included separately for you to read at your leisure.

All videos are fully integrated into the app, so you can view them any time without the need for an internet connection.

The reviewer below me touched on everything I was going to say! Love the app. Super helpful when I first started hooping since it laid out all the basics for me.

### 5/5 — A million times better than YouTube!

*2015-01-06*

Thank you THANK YOU thank you! As fun as it is searching through YouTube for similar instructional videos I find I spend most of my time daydreaming about what I could be doing or pausing and replaying sequences that are poorly filmed (low light, poor sound, no slo-mo) - and now this app has everything I need to get off my sofa and start doing it properly. Great work!!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!

### 5/5 — AMAZING app.

*2014-09-11, version 1.3*

I absolutely love this app. Peachysteve is so easy to understand and hoop along with as well as being very descriptive in his instructions. my only complaint is that I don't think you should have to buy the lessons. I did it anyways, though because they are so much more helpful than those on youtube.  It is worth the money.😊🌲🌀 , •love and light•

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2014-08-23*

The best and most clearest hooping instructions I have yet found. Thank you! :)

### 1/5 — Terrible App!!

*2014-03-21, version 1.2*

This app stinks. You have to pay 99 cents for individual extra chapters. It only comes with three chapters that teach you how to basic waist hoop, hoop around your neck, and walk while hula hooping. It is a very poor and expensive app.
