Hula-hooping is back. From South Central to South Africa, The Hooping Life documents the rise of an infectious new subculture, at the intersection of fitness, art, spirituality, and entrepreneurship. Introduced by hooper Shaquille O’Neal with a score by Basement Jaxx, The Hooping Life follows eight pioneers of the movement who sometimes left an established career to make a living as hoop-makers, performers, and teachers.

The film alternates between performance footage and interviews, self-filmed video diaries and street practice. Filmed over six years and with appearances by late hoop-promoter/entrepreneur and TV personality Art Linkletter, The Hooping Life celebrates the healing power of movement and the spirit of human inventiveness.
