First and foremost, happy birthday Anita! It’s her special day today.
We noticed Anita with her hoop when we were on the grass at the south end of the beach. Even from there the joy she was exuding was palpable. She had already been going for an hour and that hoop is weighted. Anita is someone who loves what she does.
“I’m originally from Hungary but I was always drawn to Australia. I have been living in Bondi for 2 years and I would like to add something new to the sport and recreation in Bondi that emulates the essence of Bondi through fitness and fun.”
Anita’s day starts early. She is usually up to watch the sunrise, “the most magical part of the day”.
The next part of her morning is hoop training that she loves to do at the water’s edge on the soft sand. “While watching the waves I find it easy to switch off the outside world and focus on myself and training. When I train others I encourage them to do the same.”
“My business is very new, and I named it after myself, Hooping with Anita.”. You can find her on Instagram here: @hooping_with_anita
Weighted hula hooping is new to this part of the world but very popular elsewhere. Anita is motivated to get this “challenging, but super fun type of workout to others, hoping it will bring as much joy and happiness in their lives as in mine while keeping fit”.
