The Hoopnotica DVDs are really great but I also hope you got an adult sized hoop to go with it. The second hoopnotica dvd has a 20 minute hoopdance workout on it.
The hoop DVDs I have that are workouts are: BettyHoops gaiam DVD, Bettyhoops 4 DVD, BettyHoops cross training DVD, Jane Fonda's cardio hoop, Marisa Tomei hoop DVDs, and some other instructional dvds. The cardio hoop with Kamala mathis is basically an 8 week hoopdance course in 45 minutes that's not chaptered like the Hoopnotica dvd. The Marisa Tomei (it's out of print) DVDs have a small hoopdance workout and a hoop influenced fusion workout. Interesting but not really what I was looking for. The best workout DVD I have for hooping is the BettyHoops Gaiam (out of print) but now that same workout is out on her website but it's shorter. I haven't tried the Cristabel DVDs yet. That's on the next to get list.
There are a few hoop workouts on youtube that you can try. Bodyhoops, Hoopnotica and a few others have some solid workouts that you can try. Good luck! I really hope you can find joy in the hoop! It's an amazing hobby and workout!
