How Much Space Do You Need for a Weighted Hula Hoop? (With Diagram & Tips)

Before you start hooping, it’s important to prepare your workout space — not just your hoop!
A weighted hoop with a 100cm diameter rotates around your body, and the motion creates a circle that’s roughly 2m wide when you include your arm movement and body sway.

If your hoop doesn’t have enough clearance, it may hit walls, furniture, or nearby objects, which can interrupt your flow and even cause minor injury.

Where to Hoop

✅ Living room or balcony with open space
✅ Exercise mat underneath for comfort
✅ Keep away from fragile objects (TV, furniture edges, mirrors)

Final Tip

Give your hoop room to spin — and it will give you a beautiful rhythm in return.
Remember, hooping is a fun, low-impact workout, but safety starts with space awareness.
Check your surroundings, clear the area, and enjoy your spin with confidence!
