Three pillars, one practice.
The Hipnotic Method is the framework underneath everything we teach — a simple way to meet your body wherever it is, today.
Breath first.
Every practice begins with four minutes of breath. Not pranayama, not a technique — just the sound and tempo of your own inhale. The hoop becomes a metronome for that.
ExploreRhythm next.
Hoops are metronomes. Once the hoop is spinning at your waist, your breath finds its tempo — and your nervous system follows. This is where most people begin to feel it.
ExploreFlow eventually.
Flow state is a consequence, not a goal. We don't chase it — we create the conditions for it. Consistent practice, familiar movement, a body that trusts itself.
ExploreSix moves, an entire practice.
Many ways to begin.
From quiet one-on-one sessions to group flows, team gatherings and weekend retreats — every format is designed for beginners and built around the same three pillars.
I started Hipnotic because nothing else felt slow enough.
I trained as a yoga teacher, then a sound healer, then a flow artist. None of it was slow enough. Everyone wanted to get somewhere. I just wanted to stay. The hoop was the first thing that let me do that — stay inside a rhythm for as long as I needed, without anyone telling me I was done.
Everything we ship is finished by hand in Topanga, by a small team who practice what they build. The method we teach is the same method we use. Nothing here is for show.
I've owned six hoops from three different makers. The Hipnotic one is the only one that still has a full grip after eighteen months of daily practice.
Hipnotic's craftsmanship is a level above anyone else I've tried. The brass coupling has never loosened, even spinning two hours a day in Prospect Park.
I bought my first hoop two years ago. I now own three and teach beginner classes. Hipnotic was the beginning of something I didn't know I needed.
