A hula hoop on its own is a pretty good time and decent exercise. Add a few colored LEDs and you have yourself a party hoop! Light up hoops are used by dancers, performers, entertainers, and just for fun. These hoops are popular at festivals like burningman and at some dance clubs around the world. LED hoops purchased fully assembled can cost anywhere from $100 to $300. But if you get the right parts together you can make yours for a fraction of the cost!

Instructions for an LED Hula Hoop were featured in Craft Magazine in early February and a Parts kit was sold on prodmod.com shortly after. These kits are now available on makershed and were sold at makerfaire 2008. Instructions are free online, but some might like to build their hoop with a little help.

Sign up for this class now and you'll get all the instructor's help and guidance in completing the kit. Burning man is right around the corner! Sign up and get your own hoop ready for the festival.

The total cost of this workshop is actually less than if you bought the kit online!! The parts kit is discounted down to only $49 and the workshop fee is only $20.
Come to learn, build, and walk out with your own hoop!
You'll have to pay for both on this page to reserve your spot and materials.

Payment must be received by July 16th for section one or July 23 for section two to secure your material. Kits will only be picked up at the workshop location.

A selection of tools will be available to share, but bring your own if you can. Soldering is optional --This kit has been redesigned so that you can make a fully functioning LED hoop with no soldering.

Tools:
• Edge cutters
• wire strippers - we have a few.
• Power Drill/Screwdriver with drill bits
• Knife - swiss army or leather man etc.
• Your swinging hips!
