Etymology
The term 'hoop' originates from the Old English word 'hลp,' meaning a circular band. Over the centuries, this term has evolved, and the concept of using hoops for play and exercise became prominent in the 20th century. Hula hoops specifically gained popularity in the late 1950s when Wham-O, a toy company, manufactured plastic hoops and marketed them widely. The word 'hula' in hula hoop is believed to be inspired by the Hawaiian hula dance, reflecting the rhythmic movements associated with both hooping and dance. Since then, hooping has developed into a multifaceted activity, encompassing recreational, competitive, and fitness elements, and has seen a resurgence in the 21st century as part of various aerobic routines.
