The muscles that are involved in the circumduction of the shoulder joint are the pectoralis major, deltoid, supraspinatus, long head of triceps, biceps brachii, subscapularis, infraspinatus, coracobrachialis, teres major and minor and the latissimus dorsi.
Several joints allow range of motion, it depends on what kind of range of motion you are talking about. Ball & socket joints (such as the shoulder) allow circumduction, abduction and adduction; hinge joints (such as knee and elbow joints) allow flexion and extention.
Circumduction and rotation ARE possible around the hip joint.

The muscles that are involved in the circumduction of the shoulder joint are the pectoralis major, deltoid, supraspinatus, long head of triceps, biceps brachii, subscapularis, infraspinatus, coracobrachialis, teres major and minor and the latissimus dorsi.
The shoulder joint is a ball and socket joint, which is the type that allows the greatest range of movement. it allows the arm to move forward and backward (as when you swing your arms while walking); abduction and adduction (as in jumping jacks); and many intermediate movements.
Ball and socket joint allows the above movements. Shoulder and hip joints are classic examples of this type of joints. Shoulder joint is much more mobile and circumduction movement is well marked in that joint.
Rotation involves, Rotation of the head, neck and lower limb and circumduction, abduction is the angular movements: abduction, adduction and circumduction of the upper limb at the shoulder

Circumduction and rotation ARE possible around the hip joint.
Circumduction means moving something in the body with a joint movement. Examples are ball and sockets of the eyeball.
