Is This You?
- Dancing feels outside of my comfort zone.
- I'm comfortable doing hoop tricks but not dancing, and that holds me back.
- Although I'm a grown woman with a Hula Hoop, I find myself worried about looking silly dancing.
- I've never taken dance lessons and feel uncoordinated.
- I don't know what to do with my arms and body and feel awkward.
- I'm interested in ways to include more movement for myself, not just the hoop.
- I never thought about dancing before, but now I'm ready to explore.
- I use to dance when I was younger, and I'm ready to find or reconnect with that part of me.
- I've been way more stationary since Covid. I need some new inspiration to get moving and lose a few pounds.
- I'm so busy taking care of everything and everyone else; I feel like my feminine essence has been neglected.
- I teach hoop dancing and would like some new ideas to help my students who struggle with body awareness.
Here's the big picture of what 28 Days to put the DANCE in hoop dancing is all about
- 28 Days To Dance is about bringing out the dancer that already resides within you; it's about the feeling of freedom and flow. You'll receive useful knowledge that will inspire you to gracefully dance your feet, arms, body, and of course, your hoop.
- There is plenty of content online and classes you can attend to learn new tricks (of course, that's important), but what I am conveying in this course are concepts to bring awareness not only to the hoop but to the flow of our own bodies, while we dance with the hoop as our partner.
Carrie Kloss
I'm a former United States Ballroom Champion. I have been a ballroom dance teacher for 40+ years and have been teaching hooping for eight years. I'm a Hoop Love Coach and a Hoop Revolution Mentor.
Having trained hundreds of ballroom dance teachers and thousands of dance students, I'm loving the marriage of ballroom and hula hooping and have found many similarities, especially the feeling of being in the flow and interacting with something outside of myself.
I've always loved teaching and sharing knowledge. As a Certified Life Coach, I'm passionate about supporting women of all ages to find joy, playfulness, and flow in movement and life. I'm honored to provide a safe, comfortable place to explore dance for all levels.
My favorite place to hoop dance is in nature; at the beach, desert, or mountains, all nearby where I live in Southern California. I've had a hoop/flow arts Meetup for almost eight years and hope you can come hoop with us sometime!
What Students Are Saying About The Course
Lesley Whitley Cox
"This course has helped me to start incorporating dance movement into my hooping. I've always admired those graceful dancing hoopers on Instagram, and after watching Carrie's easy to follow lessons, I could quickly see a big difference in the way I moved with my hoop.
She is a natural teacher, and her teaching experience shows. They are such fun and short lessons!
Klavdija Herga
The course helped me to greatly improve my flow.
I am becoming more confident, and authentic. This course will accompany me whenever I will compose new choreography.
I'm very grateful that I have listened to intuition and joined the course.
Amanda Maria West
"This course is so well done! Carrie is a dynamic teacher. She explains everything thoroughly, her teaching expertise makes it all easy to understand and quickly put into practice. This is early days for me, but I can already see a huge difference in my hoop dance.
Carrie just oozes grace and charisma. I felt more graceful instantly. I look forward to learning more at her dancing feet!"
Karen Dobyns
"I have learned lots of hoop tricks over the years, and occasionally transitions, but I haven't had a lot of luck finding someone really focusing on bringing the true dance and GRACE into the hooping. Carrie, as a professional instructor, knows how to easily and simply integrate footwork and grace into hooping. I think any hooper, no matter how skilled, would benefit from Carrie's tutorials as they provide ideas and strategies to enhance a hooper's flow :) GraceFLOW!!!"
We'll be learning together with this unique course, which contains a fully recorded curriculum, live Zoom Lessons, pre-recorded Zoom Lessons, and an active private Facebook group.
To accommodate every learning style and provide accountability:
- The course enrollment will close, so we can all start and finish at the same time. However, you will continue to have unrestricted access to the course for as long as you like.
- Each week of this 4-week course, there will be live Zoom classes to focus on one week at a time together. We'll record the two live Zoom classes with the group, which will be added to the course curriculum.
- We'll end this 4-week course with a special Hoop Dance Party.
I'm so excited to guide you on this hoop dance journey!!

What Students Are Saying About The Course
Tonya Boyle
Carrie has put such a lot of thought and effort into this course; you can tell this from her attention to detail. The course was designed for everyone, no matter their level of dance or hooping.
Each section is manageable and easy to learn and includes tips from her many years of teaching ballroom dancing.
The moves are explained so that even my dyslexic mind can follow them, showing them from different views. I love the way each section is layered so you can take things at your own pace.
She also has a keen eye to help tweak the smallest details to make the greatest improvement in your ability. She gives a great description and breakdown of the movements, position and details needed to perform the technique fluidly.
Carrie clearly loves teaching, and her workshops are always the perfect balance. The live Zoom sessions are brilliant, she shows you the moves first and then you can follow along with her, and because she is able to see you, she is able to help you out and encourage you.
My confidence in dancing while hooping has grown so much.
Dawn Georgevich
I’ve been hooping for over 4 years when I ran across Carrie’s hoop dance class.
It was time for me to push myself out of my comfort zone. I’ve never been a dancer, but always admired the hoop dancers ease of flow within their hoops.
After taking Carries, 28 Days to Put the DANCE In Your Hoop Dancing, I’m feeling more confident dancing and flowing with my hoop.
The class format was so easy to follow and Carrie is very clear in her instruction as she teaches us different dance steps and then brings the hoop into movement.
I loved how she combined the lessons in an easy to use format and then had two Zoom classes weekly.
I learn better with “live” instruction so the Zoom lessons were perfect for me.
I also just loved meeting the other ladies from around the world.
Thank you Carrie for putting together this amazing course.
Cécile Pitre
Thank you so much, Carrie! You're so professional and so kind. Your course opened my mind for more creativity and new flow.
I incorporate all my body in the flow and dance like you have taught us. I am creating and you have opened my mind. I have begun to practice the different dances with the hoop and want to continue to master it with fluidity.
Your course is perfect. I have appreciated all the theory given in the beginning it will serve me.
I feel like you've put your heart and soul in your course.
Thanks a million times. precious Carrie
