How To Hula Hoop

I was in the market for a hula hoop recently and so imagine my delight when I drove by Lily Juliet and saw some laying out there, glittering in the sun.

They caught my eye because they weren't just any old hula hoops. Like much of the rest of what is in Lily Juliet, they were hand made and unique.

I asked one of the owners, Joan Horton, if she knew how to hula. See the video for the answer to that.

Her hula hooping tip? "Don't think about it. Just do it." She assures me it's like riding a bike. Once you learn, you never really forget how.

Stop by Lily Juliet to check out their hula hoops, clothes, beach gear, accessories and home decor. And be sure to wish them a happy anniversary! They will be open one year as of Saturday, May 25th.

The hula hoops are $30.

Lily Juliet is located at 14 Wall Street, Madison, CT. You can call them at 203-779-5343.
