Mary Pulak is the founder of Hooked on Hooping. She is passionate about hooping and helping people learn how to move their bodies in fun and healthy ways. She is committed to helping people learn how to hoop, and make her customers feel comfortable, respected and satisfied with their product.

Mary's passion for hooping began in the summer of 2007 when she participated in a hoop dancing session led by Julia Hartsell, professional hoop dancer from "Hoop Drum" at the National Wellness Conference in Stevens Point, Wisconsin. That session inspired and motivated Mary to learn more about the re-emerging trend of hooping.

Reliving the joys of "hula" hooping as a child, her experiences as a competitive gymnast, as well as numerous years as a public school teacher and coach, Mary combined her talents  with her creativity, energy and enthusiasm to create Hooked on Hooping.

Her professional career has always been connected to educating and promoting health and wellness. Hooping has given her a new vehicle in promoting health and wellness to people of all ages, size, and gender. Her enthusiasm for hooping is contagious and she relishes in spreading the joy and passion for hooping to everyone she meets.
