The term 'kind of hoop' can be answered with the word 'HULA'. HULA is a traditional Hawaiian dance form that uses arm and hip movements to tell stories. The HULA is usually accompanied by chanting or song and often involves the use of a HULA hoop, which is a circular object made of natural materials such as bamboo or coconut husks. The HULA hoop is used to create a visual representation of the story being told.
