The Aerial Hoop, also known as Lyra, is a circus apparatus used to perform beautiful movements and shapes in the air. Our Lyras are perfect for everyone from beginners to professionals - they are hollow, lightweight stainless steel. These hoops are aerial industry standard diameter of 1 inch (25.4mm). A method of selecting an aerial hoop diameter is to sit in a chair and measure the distance from the seat of the chair to the top of the head, then add 2 inches. Each person's torso height can be different, so we strongly recommend measuring for the best fit. Here's a general guideline to help: 4'10-5'0 = 31 Inch Hoop 5'1-5'2 = 33 Inch Hoop 5'2-5'4 = 35 Inch Hoop 5'5-5'7 = 37 Inch Hoop 5'8-5'10 = 39 Inch Hoop 5'11-6'1 = 41 Inch Hoop The most popular hoop sizes found in gyms and studios are 35 Inch and 37 Inch. **HARDWARE AND STRAP NOT INCLUDED** You may purchase swivels, a round sling, and carabiners separately. For the most common set-up, you need 2 carabiners, 1 round sling, 1 swivel, and 1 ceiling mount if needed. Safety tips for aerial fitness: Use a mat under your apparatus Always practice with a spotter for flips and harder moves Learn from a professional. Books, YouTube and videos are a great source, but we highly recommend attending an Aerial Class Always check your equipment before each use to make sure damage has not occurred at any time and that the rigging is secure We recommend that you tape your hoops with Sports Tape (like Mueller's tape) for both hygiene issues and safety issues.
