In 2007, I was constantly in pain and hating my job. My chronic illness made sitting at a desk in front of a computer agony and I was suffering from anxiety, low self-worth and a terrible body image. Basically, I felt trapped. I knew something needed to shift but I had no idea how.
Then I found hula hooping and life changed
My best friend started going to a hula hoop class and I plucked up the courage to go with her. Even though I struggled to waist hoop, I quickly became addicted to learning hoop tricks.
As the months went by, I fell more deeply in love with hooping. My body became stronger and started to feel more comfortable moving it in new ways without being so self-critical. In 2010, I left Australia to start a new life in England, and I desperately wanted to share my hoop passion with other people. I made the decision to completely change career paths and set up my first hoop class in Brighton.

Now I have the best job in the world!
Today I earn my living by making people happy! I regularly get messages from students telling me that I’ve changed their life by giving them the confidence to move their body and bring more joy into their every day.
And, because I’m my own boss, I get to choose when and how I want to work - so Now I have the best job in the world!! My chronic illness doesn’t define me anymore and I get to set my own hours - so I can spend more time with two sons while they are still little.

I wish someone had held my hand along the way!
Today I run a thriving and successful business but, I’ll be completely honest with you, the first few years were a slog.
I had no background in business and I made so many costly mistakes. I also struggled with the overwhelm and isolation of self-employment, and there were a few times where I almost gave up. Thankfully my passion for hula hooping kept me going. But I don’t want anyone to feel the same way I did.
So that is why I created my LiveLoveHoop hoop teacher training which has so far certified 375+ hula hoop instructors and helped them create joyful and unique hoop businesses around the world.

Also, I appreciated that challenging issues such as undercutting, competition, inclusion and diversity are raised and addressed in sensitive ways. Mostly, I loved that it made me feel capable, confident and excited to be starting a new circus journey.

Jo knows that my main worry about joining the course was money. I've been a stay at home mum with zero income for 5 years so the course fee was a lot of money for us. But I did it! And I'm doing a little happy (also very knackered!!) dance tonight!!

I chose Jo's training because I knew she is a great hoop teacher and I felt inspired by her & confident in her.
After completing the hoop teacher training, I was able to give up my full time accountancy job and set up my hoop business teaching classes, workshops and hen parties. I now have a successful fun hoop business sharing the joy and benefits of hooping. If you don't think you're ready to teach hooping you're wrong. If you can hoop and want to teach then go for it.

From the hoopers mouth...
Jo's years of teaching experience means you get a shortcut to success!
I’ve been running my hoop teacher training program since 2010 and this is the most common question I get. Even people who have been hooping for years are worried they haven’t got “enough” tricks.
Let me reassure you. If you have a passion for hooping (which, since you’re reading this, I’m pretty sure you do), and the drive to complete my teacher training course, then you ARE good enough!
In this hoop instructor training course I walk you through everything step-by-step and build up your knowledge and skillset week by week, so you don’t feel overwhelmed along the way.
Your job is to go all-in with me and commit to doing the work in the course! (Ideally you will have been hooping for at least 6 months before starting, so you have a grounding in the basics, but in the past, I’ve had people join who could only waist hoop, and they excelled!)
In this course you'll get 8 weeks of live zoom sessions every Monday 7pm-8pm (UK time). All sessions are recorded so you will have access to them at any time if you can't join live.
Week 1 - 8th April
Week 2 - 15th April
Week 3 - 22nd April
Week 4 - 29th April
Week 5 - 6th May
Week 6 - 13th May
Week 7 - 20th May
Week 8 - 27th May
Prerecorded bonus sessions will be uploaded to your portal on certain weeks (see course structure above for more info).
If you qualify for any of the live bonuses, you'll find out dates and times once the course starts.
You’ll need to submit a video of yourself teaching hoop (either in person or online) so I can give you personalised feedback and ensure your teaching meets my qualification criteria.
You have 4 weeks from the end of the live lessons to submit.
You’ll also need to fill in a workbook to demonstrate your understanding of the course content and show me how you plan to start teaching once the course is finished.
The course is not pass/fail or graded, but if I don't feel you have achieved the standard of teaching that I require, I will ask you to try again until I'm satisfied.
I would suggest a minimum of 2 hours a week (1 hour to watch the live lesson, the rest practicing your teaching or working on your goals/business planning). The bonus sessions are extras that will help you get more out of the course, but are not essential learning to pass the course. I've also made sure to build in implementation time in the course, so you can catch up if life gets in the way.
Don't worry, everything will be recorded for you to catch up on in your own time either on the online portal or via the app. You also have lifetime access to the videos.
Yes. I've had people from many different countries do the course with great success. So far I've trained 375 hula hoop from England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Germany, Spain, Sweden, Iceland, Germany, Austria, Australia, USA, Canada, France, Italy, Czech Republic, Slovenia and Russia.
Just remember, it is your responsibility to investigate the legal, tax and insurance information relevant to your local area. But I will give you pointers on what you need to look for and how to go about it.
No! That means there’s a market for hooping where you live. I'm a big believer in community over competition, so we will talk about this in the course.
In the UK, the answer is no, but you may choose to get one if you wish to go down a more fitness orientated route. If you're outside of the UK, you should check your own country's regulations, but in my experience, a hoop teacher qualification is enough to get insured to teach in most countries.
YES there is a whole section of this course about teaching online including all the tech equipment you need, how build an audience online and more. This is useful during pandemic times, but also for anyone who wants to expand their reach to a global market.
We can't guarantee that you will make money from this course because it is up to YOU to implement what you’ve learned. However, I can tell you that a lot of my wonderful students (some who are quoted on this page) DID put in the work and were easily able to make back their course fee very quickly - sometimes in running just a few hoop workshops.
The aim of this course is to help you set up a sustainable hoop business that will bring you financial rewards but also the happiness that comes with sharing your passion!
