From DMs to Dance Floors: The Real Power of Hula Hooping Connections
Who would have thought that hula hooping could bring people together from across the world?

July has been full of momentum for Hula Dancercise and not just in our workouts. From international workshops to spontaneous collabs and growing community love, this month proved something big:
👉 When movement meets social media, magic happens!
Here’s what went down in July, and what we’re excited to bring into August…
🎉 7,000 Followers - and still just getting started!
We hit a huge milestone this month: 7,000 amazing humans are now following Hula Dancercise on Instagram!
To every person who’s joined a choreography challenge, liked a post, sent a message, or sweated through one of our YouTube videos - THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts! You're helping us build something that’s more than fitness. We are all connecting through movement 💃🏻⭕️

🇦🇺 From Australia to Windsor: Meeting Kaz & the 66andU Campaign 🇬🇧
One of the biggest highlights this month?
Meeting Kaz from Australia - an incredible woman who discovered Rachel JB Jones and Hula Dancercise back in February. Inspired by what she saw when we launched the 66andU campaign, Kaz ran to her nearest store, grabbed a hula hoop and followed every tutorial, fitness exercises, and dance challenges along with our instructors to stay consistent and create this new habit for herself. Kaz was struggling to keep the hula hoop up at the start of her journey and once she could hula hoop, she was determined to learn how to walk and move in her hoop!
Fast forward to July… by pure chance, Rachel and Kaz both landed in Windsor, UK - and had their first in-person meetup! Kaz, learning choreography Rachel choreographed there and then on the spot. Well done Kaz!
They filmed a spontaneous video which you can watch here, shared stories, and brought the online journey full circle - proving the real-life power of this growing community!

DM us on Instagram - we’re listening!
💃🏻 More than just a workout
At its core, Hula Dancercise is about more than just getting fit. It’s about:
Moving consistently, not perfectly
Building real strength - physical and mental
Feeling empowered, playful, and present in your body!
Having fun and letting go!
As Rachel always says: “Fitness should feel like something you love to do - not something you have to do.”
Whether you’re following our choreographies online, joining a workshop, or just moving in your living room, you’re part of something powerful!
🚀 What’s Next…
Looking ahead to August, we’ve got:
🔥 Our Germany workshop
📚 Teasers for the instructor network… Something new is coming!
📲 Weekly choreos, more meetups, and some surprises along the way
So keep hula hooping, dancing, keep showing up - and let’s see where hula hoop movement takes us next!
