*"Monica has totally convinced me how good hooping is for the core!!! I have been training clients for over 10 years and have never seen someone with such perfect form and control with their core exercises- male or female. Her upper and lower abs, lower back, glutes, and hips can all thank the hoops for their stability. Keep workin' it Monica and Monkey Hooper!!!"- Jessica Sheedy, Personal Trainer
*"The birthday party was wonderful and a lot of fun! Heard so many positive comments about the party. You do such a great job, especially with a large number of children.

It was just as great as I imagined it would be!" - Lisa

*"The hoops are FaBuLoUs!!" -Michele, Paz Boutique (purchase Monkey Hoopers here!)
*"Monica did such a great job entertaining the girls at my 9 year old daughters birthday party for the entire time! Monkey Hooper allowed the girls to create something (they designed their own hoops!), learn about hooping, play team games, individual games and of course, individual expression (freestyle hooping... who knew). I think Monica has a special talent to entertain all ages, and Monkey Hooper is such a unique experience, no one at the party will ever forget! I know I won't. Thank you Monica! "
-Doug
*"This was the easiest party that I ever hosted at home. I just provided chairs for the girls to sit in a circle in the yard and Monkey Hooper supplied the materials for the hoops and fun! Monica was very sweet with the girls and was able to capture their attention and channel their energy with the games and activities. Some guests were a little tentative that they had never hooped before but by the end, they were all pros. I couldn' have been more please with Monkey Hooper...we had the best celebrations for my daughters 9th birthday!"
-Julie
