Today we're learning the basics of poi reel turns in split-time same direction--these are sometimes called watermills! For this watermill tutorial we're going to drill down how you turn in split time same direction because it's going to be super important for some other tricks we'll cover this week!
For review, here's last week's video on timing and direction for a refresher on split-time same direction and other timings: • Basic Poi Lesson: Timi...

It seems to be common for me to spend hours watching ur videos and practicing along but I rarely actually learn the trick on the first go. I then tend to think about it all night and BOOM... next day I pick up the poi and do it with little to no effort. I really appreciate the time you put into teaching each step so I can take it as slow as I need. Thank you!

Thank you so much for these helpful tutorials!!!!! I’ve learned all my tricks just from watching your free RU-vid videos! Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing your amazing skills and passion!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

drex, you're king. I was always thinking that I'm the most untalented person for sports and everything about body and its control and motion... since I'm trainning poi spinning, I can feel my body much more. Can't stop wondering what I already learned. Thanks for such a good teacher from Slovakia!

@claudiamccabe6627 3 года назад

Nailed tuck turns now going to learn these absolutely love your tutorials Drex you have such a good way of explaining that makes it so easy to follow and learn 👍🙂

I was having a hard time getting the Waterville/windmills to look right, something seemed off and my poi that was stalling was going almost in wheel plane than wall plane behind me. Took a week but I finally figured it out! Had to really concentrate on getting my poi to follow one another in front of me instead of stalling too long, it helped to bring them almost into together time while passing in front and balancing out to split time on either side. In case anyone else had the same issue, and kept hitting themselves when switching to the continuous watermill from a single beat reel

Thank you for the lovely videos. I am totally untalented and my kids (4 and 5 years old) almost always interrupt my training (e.g. try to steal my Poi to try themselves), but with the help of your videos I can master a few tricks. I hope it will be enough to make a show at a friends wedding in August 2023. Greetings from Germany

@Cristian-ei7sg 3 года назад

Drex just wanted to say I've watched so many of your videos learning how to spin and I really appreciate you making all these. Couldn't learn it without you!

@benjamincollet4512 2 года назад

Thank you so much! I am at the very beginning of my poi spinning journey and your tutorials prove to be very useful!

@meditations-by-amazon-warrior 2 месяца назад

This is amazing thank you! Going to try it

@whitneybailey9021 Год назад

I never knew this had a name! I stumbled on this motion years ago just messing around, and have always enjoyed the goofy feel of it, like Anita whipping her skirt around in West Side Story. :) Cool to know it's an actual move!

@CMSky Год назад

Instead of snapping fingers, you can skap your chest, clap your hands, make a specific pop noise with your mouth, or tap the mike if you are next to it. I recommend the last one, since it makes a huge spike that you can't miss.

@sagecoleman8132 Год назад

I'm a hooper,..I've wanted poi for sooo long I finally got some...some super cheap ones.. literally had bloody hands yesterday from the same blisters opening up time and time again...I love poi so much and have such a drive and passion to continue but I am having such a hard time... basically can just weave...I can weave all around from doing doubles but literally everything else I'm having such a hard time with :( I want to be good at this soo bad but man my left handed body and my right sided brain is just not catching on :/ I love these videos tho and am going to stick with it 💜 thank you for sharing your talents and knowledge with the world ❤️

@redrognav1 4 года назад

Great tutorial. Learned the trick in about 10 minutes... How often, when spinning for fun, do the poi come in contact with your body on accident?

@eamon117 3 года назад

Man i was just learning butterfly and i hit my crotch like 5 times in 2 mins haha

@MegaSloth Год назад

Beating on a drum trick made all this click so nicely

@djkoilive 3 года назад

hey there! sorry if this is a dumb question, but where can I get the poi that you use in this video? im looking to upgrade, and am having a hard time finding something solid without being bogged down with options that I don't quite understand just yet....

@kristien2010 4 года назад

I think I taught myself the thumb down version just playing around with a dance idea in my head. How about that?

@bryanbryan6108 3 года назад

@Melissa Shute learn english first. Chancle? Kay.

@bryanbryan6108 3 года назад

@Melissa Shute also there are so many people who are masters of poi that teach everything under the sun so good luck with a youtube channel after only spinning for a year.

@bryanbryan6108 3 года назад

@Melissa Shute no surprise your channel has 0 subscribers and no videos. Man people just say whatever bullshit huh?

@missanna208802 2 года назад

I'm guessing you've spent time in Hawaii, yeah? I'm guessing because I also say, "yeah?" in the same context as you and I picked that up in Hawaii. On Oahu, specifically.

@sophieshapeless3901 3 года назад

Lmao you know poi spinners love a mouth full ;p

@bryanbryan6108 3 года назад

Drex are you suggesting that poi spinners are pretentious? Nooooooo... 😂

@Matt-qu3pg 4 года назад
