WhirlWind Hoops

Who’s WhirlWind?

Local to Miami-Dade County in Florida, meet WhirlWind. Jasmine Carmel Garcia has been Hula-hooping since June 2006 & hand-making them soon after for fun, fitness, & performance.

“Whether you’re interested in learning how to hula-hoop for the first time… or maybe you just need to upgrade your hoop-gear &/or add more hula-hoops to your collection… I’d love to be part of your Hoop-Journey! I also offer hula-hoop restorations & repairs. Also, if you’re looking to get in shape & strengthen your cardiovascular health, let’s definitely get in touch!

A handmade hula hoop is a truly special gift! If I hadn’t received one shortly after being introduced to hooping at a music festival, I’m not sure I would have ever dived so deeply into my own hoop journey. Giving the gift of flow can be life-changing in the most positive, joyful way; It certainly was for me!”

When WhirlWind is not hula-hooping, she’s either helping her husband Marco, BustaPhoto… in her garden, including supporting 3O5 Gardens… or most likely in the kitchen cooking with her Lodge Cast Iron collection.

She’s currently obsessed with learning how to make everything from scratch, from treats to condiments, butters & more… & hopes to source majority of her produce, spices & herbs from her very own home garden.

Made “Just for You“ Hula-Hoops

Enjoy the Gift of Flow. Shop for yourself, a gift, or a group! Just like being fitted for the perfect outfit, a hula-hoop can be tailored to your unique body’s measurements & “hoop-journey” goals.

I make all kinds of hula-hoops using different materials (tube) for different types of “flows.” From Big Hoops, best for beginners learning how to waist hoop & other foundational moves… to Travel Hoops that disconnect into segments for easy-travel.

Whether you’re looking for Perfectly Plain Practice Hoops for Dance & Fitness… to Stage-Ready with decorative &/or reflective tape for Performance… I would be ecstatic if you made WhirlWind Hoops part of your journey.

From a Single Hoop to multiple for Geometry Style Hooping… large on-body hoops to mini-hand hoops… A Slinky Hoop for that incredible classic circus finale… to Fire Hoops to heat up the moment… See what a handmade hula-hoop crafted with care.

Hula-Hoop restorations also available upon request.
