About Yael
My relationship with performing arts started early. I grew up dancing in a troupe before discovering circus arts — juggling, figure skating, drama, and briefly, unicycling. Movement and performance were always where I felt most at home.
It wasn't until the end of high school that everything clicked. I found a hula hoop at school, took it home, and spent an entire summer teaching myself. That summer turned into circus training camps, which turned into a performance practice I've now been developing for over 12 years.
What kept me hooked wasn't just the skill — it was what movement did for me. Hooping, poi, silk fans — these arts reconnected me to my body and unlocked a confidence and creativity I hadn't found anywhere else. That's what I want to give my students. Not just a trick or a routine, but a genuine relationship with movement and the freedom that comes with it.
I've performed at major festivals and corporate events, and over the years teaching has become one of the most rewarding parts of this journey — watching someone walk away from a session moving in a way they didn't think they could.

About My Teaching:
Every lesson is tailored to your age, experience level, and physical abilities — no two students follow the same path. Sessions are structured so you always finish having learned a choreography, giving you something concrete to take away and practice.
Lesson Progression:
- Foundations — Off body and on body hooping basics
- Flow & Movement — Learning to move freely with your chosen prop, developing personal style
- Combinations — Linking moves and building sequences
- Choreography — Every session ends with a completed routine to take away and practice
- Advanced Performance — Stage presence, audience engagement, costume sourcing, character development, and how to build an artist bio and apply for festival bookings
Fire Hooping is available as an advanced progression following a required number of foundational lessons. In person only — subject to location.
Rhythmic Gymnastics integration is available for younger students incorporating hoops into their gymnastics training.
Group & Online Lessons:
Online and in person, individually or in groups. Online group lessons are capped at 3 — larger groups require in person sessions. Group pricing is based on numbers.
Who This Is For:
All ages and levels welcome, from complete beginners to performing artists looking to refine and elevate their craft.

Best teacher and performer
Yael is a great teacher. She is super talented , has a lot of knowledge and explain everything in a simple but effective manner. But daughter who is aiming to become a film maker loved her first lesson with yael. 10/10 recommend
Yael and I date a few years back. She's multifaceted, skilled, and passionate in everything she does. Hooping has always been a big passion of hers for as long as I can remember. She’s performed in multiple shows and festivals! You’ll enjoy every moment with her; the flow will make both the sessions and connection with her so smooth!
Yael is the best teacher I have had.
Extremely talented, with a lot of patience and clear instructions.
She prepared me for a performance at a festival with a repertoire of difficult tricks.View more recommendations
