This definitely looks very achievable and such a cool routine
Loved it !
This is a really cool one, I'm finding so many gems and creative combos/tricks in your old tech blogs <3
Maybe not "beginner" per say, but personally I LOVED orbitals when I got started. Learning those moves taught me so much about the 5 fundamentals you covered here. So, I would humbly add "String manipulation" as a consideration. Both Isolations and tangles would fall under this category, but perhaps not under absolute beginner... It was a beginner "trick" for me, anyways.
ge munji 🐒
I spin double batons, and the second exercise, extension with added petals, really helps. Thanks!
Gracias por tus videos, son de gran ayuda
Thank you so much for these helpful tutorials!!!!! I’ve learned all my tricks just from watching your free CZcams videos! Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing your amazing skills and passion!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is very cool how to do the flower with antispins. Beat control is so important literally. Taking energy away from the poi plus giving the poi energy can be very beneficial.
Agreed wholeheartedly!
Do you do staff too? Just that simple rotation of it looks like so much fun! Lol
Could you start your trick videos with a 10-second full speed of the trick? Lots of us dont know a trick by it's name
Can you do a vid for beg-intermed self taught people just performing the moves we prob already know but with their associated names? I had no idea of any of my move names til this vid! It will be helpful in learning others!
I have ADHD and have a hard time memorizing instructions and especially conceptualizing spatial instructions so I learned hooping (15 yrs-expert) and later poi balls & flags (beginner) on my own. Never realized I could actually process/learn this from a video but all you are saying makes perfect sense! I just learned windmills with small hoops and applied it to my poi. Took 14 years for my brain to allow me to be in 2 planes with different arms! I found the simple weave WAY easier. I still cant notice the diff between diff types of weaves. They all look the same to me lol. I only know all 3 of these plus figure 8s (once i shorten the strap a lot) and need inspiration! That reel turn looks scary! Think Im gonna hit myelf 10X! 😂
Awesome, but too bad I can't slow it down to know what directions you are going!
Isolations
I often have this problem, but usually only when trying to do flowers in split-same. This video helped me figure out the problem and ways to think of the trick differently!
Split same definitely comes with its own unique challenges apart from the others. Maybe a video on it specifically is in order? 🤔
Yes I got something from this video :D I'm training during a 6 days boat journey haha
Outstanding! Glad I could give you something to work on during the trip.
Wow, beginner here. I followed along with the video and could do it after a couple minutes practicing. Thank you! Now to learn getting into the flowers.
Do you recommend us making our own sock poi?
Making your own poi is a rite of passage, I would say. You should absolutely try if that sounds like something you want to do!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Super ~
I'm uncoordinated as hell but I think I'm starting to get it! Starting to learn poi as a fun way to become more graceful and maybe give me something to do with my hands when I dance and your videos are great.
🔥 💜 which poi are those?
Hand Independence - I am working on that and it can be maddening at times.
Would you consider making a full glossary of tricks in poi? I’m picking up tricks here and there but I’m feeling like they’re incomplete and there’s so much I’m not even aware of. There are other lists of poi tricks but they seem incomplete, and you’re incredibly active. Thank you for all of the work that you do!
Thanks for all the videos! they’re very helpful! 🙂 Do you currently have a promo code for ultrapoi? Thanks!
This is super helpful! I’m just getting started in my poi journey and it’s overwhelming on the amount of things to learn. I have been using your previous videos but this gives me a list of things to really focus on.
Thanks for the info!
Thank you for sharing this and I definitely agree that timing and direction are very important. Plane facing is so cool literally and didnt realize what it was until you explained it in this video. Tics tacs definitely have to practice them in different planes but have it down in wheal plane. Zero points are definitely very useful and have been playing around with how to add and subtract energy with the poi.
You walk up and speak to me about skin colour or the fact I'm "white" or "privileged" I'm absolutely going to react with hostile anger, almost like someone is being racist towards me. Gtfo
Awesome stuff, thank you. I compiled a sort of routine for myself based on your previous videos and it ended up consisting from exactly those point you mentioned here. Thank you for confirming I guess 😅
I love all of your videos Drex. Who's the best [by that, I, of course, mean your favorite] hoop tutorial content creator? Please list a few. There's no best at anything, and there's no reason to hurt people's feelings or to single anyone out. Respect and love
Thank you Drex. Once again, bringing that hot fire to beginners👏🙌
Epic crash course bro❤
Rough feels... good digging, Drex.
Nice movements ❤❤
Can you do a 3 poi no beat Tutorial?
Beautiful! Very inspiring. Thanks for sharing
This is amazing thank you! Going to try it
You dont explain any moves, just show them? I wish you would talk through how to do them... dissapointed
You also dont show yourself starting the swing? I thing you should go more in depth or at least "pull back the curtain"
As I explain at the end of the video, tutorials of all these tricks are linked to in the description, as well as a playlist teaching them in order. Teaching each of them in this video would have made it more than an hour long.
It didn't go mainstream because it's not impressive.
Love flow arts, I just don't know anyone who is into it too...... I used to but most of them stopped playing and one if them moved away
I saw Kevin in the park working out. He encouraged me to follow you and learn more. Kevin is great! I'm grateful to have met him. 👀🤔🤯😎
is this different than the g body tracer?
No
More body tracer tricks please!
Amazing plus naked and famous jammin… legit video
I started hula hooping recently and realized I'm as good as I was as a kid. Very fun. Superb exercise
This looks so good Drex. You make it look easy! I've gotta try this one 🎉
