4. Easiest way to get onto hoop
5. Basic Sit from Inverted Straddle

Here is my awsome tutorial image below :D

1. Get onto Basic Sit

2. You have to try to move your butt a little forward, try to move to the place like below "destination" on the image on the left.You're still sitting a little on you're butt but you are close you "destination" ok?



TIP: Star On The Bar might be a tricky one, if you won't feel moment while you're still on butt and raising your legs you may fall. Try to keep balance for all time! Getting already into destination without raising your legs may cause that you'll fall.

3. Now you have to raise your legs into straddle and move your butt to land in your "destination" place on your lower back as you can see on image on the left.

4. Now you have to just hang in that position

5. And let go your hands ;) You're in STAR ON THE BAR! :)

TIP: the more flexible you are the better Star On The Bar looks, and the easiest it is :)

Easiest way to get onto aerial hoop!

If you are still weak and you want to get onto hoop reaaaally badly I have something for you :)

EASIEST WAY TO GET ONTO AERIAL HOOP!

I think there's no better way to get onto :) It's quite easy and don't requite so much strength as getting into basic sit from inverted straddle or pike :) So it's perfect for beginners!

FIRST THING:
HOLD HOOP AS HIGH AS YOU CAN! It is the most important thing here, it will help you sooo much if you will hold it high!
SECOND:
JUMP! Jump and catch hoop with your underknee!
THIRD:
Streighten your leg which was catching hoopand bring it to the front side of the hoop, raise your body with your arms so you can 'sit' :) You're almost there!!
FOURTH:
Catch both sides of hoop with your hands. IMPORTANT: watch out for your 'delicate' plece ;) in that position :) try to not sit directly on THAT place :) just a little bit on a side ;)
FIFTH:
Move your body to the one side so you can bring leg which is behind you to the fron :)
SIXTH:
Sit comfortably and... YOU'RE THERE! :)
