you are an awsome teacher!!!!!! i am learning so much from all your vid... and i was doing a lot wrong lol....... but i have seen so many videos of you teching......how about some vids for you to show off....say fire poi or glow poi... and just a clip of everythin you know how to do mixed into one!?!?!?!?!? have an AWSOME DAY.... and YOU MY FRIEND RAWK!!!!! FORREST
Yes, good question. I took down a few videos because I want people to have some incentive to buy the DVD. Also, people will complain in they buy the DVD and find out that all the videos were online for free. I'm still mulling it all over so maybe I"ll put them back up. Somehow I need to start making enough money to have a home! :)
Great work Nick, thanks. I'm a nunchaku spinner, but I always find new inspiration in your poi work. Hope to see you back at Play Festival next year. Oh - and MERRY CHRISTMAS!
You are really great! i just started training with my poi ( chain with fire) and thought i ´d know some good tricks but what i´ve seen in your vids just broke my sight of things xD i tried out some tricks i´ve seen from you and my body is now covered with blue "marks" sorry bad english but i do my best^^ - but i go on trying all of this looks so impressive, plz go on posting lessons! greetings from austria!
I am just getting out of basics (well what you define as basic :P) and this is great. I always thought butterfly was a bit limited and this looks like it turns it into a great way to move around :D
ive just read the whole thing on your playpoi page, and its very sad you cant come to the usa until 2010. but i would love to know, when you do come back, would you be comming any where near texas?:)
i would really like these vids to be hd. it's hard to tell which is in front and which is in back when your demonstrating the cross armed thread the needle
i can do the 3-beat weave only.. and i feel proud of myself as none of my frnd can do even that..but i want to learn even more but they are tough. my muscle memory is really weak
IDK about that, somewhere theres a video where he looks like he might be having...more fun than you could...sober. lol. but I might be wrong. I don't remember where it is though but it's on his videos
Yea but even if they are all online for free you still can't beat the quality of a dvd in the fact that you could slow it down and study it much better than on youtube... But I get what you mean as well :D Hope to see you in the US in what?? Next year you'll be allowed to come into the US, right?? lol Love the Art you create!! :D
help! i cant turn while the poi is moving! its not moving with my body instead my body moves then the poi stays in the same place where its spinning then hits me! :(
What kind of POI is in this film, is it usually SOCK POI or may be another ??? Can somebody give me the website page , where I can order this kind because it is sure fantastic !!! answer, please ;)
The split time version is a 3-beat pattern, right? That's why the timing at 3:31 is "1-2-3-1-2-3" and it feels different than the same time version (although the concept is the same).
It feels like a 3-beat pattern to me, and that's how I count it, but like 3-circle flowers you can find a 3-beat and a 4-beat to count, it just depends what you're counting
not to make judgments but what makes your "style" more acceptable? and why perpetuate hate on the net .. people who take up Poi spinning are usually some of the most calm and open people who will accept you given the chance :) stop the cycle
