about the teacher:
Self-taught Hooper Extraordinaire, Tina Hemmerle, has been hooping it up professionally on stage and in the classroom for more than two years. As president of Hemmerle Hoop Company, she has manufactured and sold thousands of hoops to spinners across the country and at her home in the Lehigh Valley.

Tina got into the hoop originally as a form of expression through movement, and quickly found out that the benefits of this activity went far beyond self-expression, when she lost 30 pounds after just six months of hooping regularly. The pure bliss and immediate changes she observed in her own health and happiness led to the development of her instructional hoop curriculum. Hemmerle has imparted her hooping wisdom to men, women, and children ranging from age four to 84, publicly and privately, and has inspired many to unleash a creative force that lied dormant for too long.

She has done advanced studies with the most prestigious hoopers in the country at the first ever national hooping conference in 2008 with plans to instruct at the follow-up conference in 2009. Tina continues to follow her spirit down the "hoop path," and believes that she can help liberate the world through the use of this simple circular device.
