I caught Britain’s Got Talent over the weekend. One of the contestants was a 64 year hulahooper – John Parnell.
And I met him.
I was at a festival a couple of years ago and went to his class to learn hula hooping. and I did fine.
What I learned was that most people don’t have a big enough hoop. You need one that comes up to your boobs. Once I had a bigger one I did fine.
Hula hooping could be great for fitness, and fun, and possibly could be a change of career. I think John was in his 50s, had been made redundant from a sales job and decided to start on a new path.
You can read his story in the Coventry Telegraph
and here is the link to his website to find out more about hula hooping.
Let’s start to get to know each other.
I’d love to send you a series of articles to get you thinking of your wider life. You will also receive my mid-week 50+ update and the Amazing People newsletter.
