  • Poi meltdowns used to be the height of tech poi but now seem almost a forgotten relic. This trick is kind of a perfect fit for poi lessons intermediate or beginner to intermediate level because it requires you to learn lots of behind the back poi trick technique. They remain to this day one of my favorite intermediate poi tricks and I use them all the time. In this intermediate poi tutorial I'll give you the drills you need to master your behind the back planes as well as a step-by-step guide on how to work up to these fun but challenge intermediate poi moves.

    Super helpful video Drex. I'm already drilling this. Hopefully I'll nail it this time. I just had a minor breakthrough, so odds are looking good.

    Thanks for your dedication in simplifying poi. Could you breakdown the pirouette move? You may have already...if so, thank you and I'm sure CZcams will suggest it in my feed 😊

    This has always been a bit of an Achilles heel of sorts...I can "kinda" pull them off but my right shoulder always has the trouble bc of an old hockey injury/shoulder surgery.
    That being said, thanks for sharing this bc it's given me the inspiration to rededicate myself to working on this consistently to clean it up :)

    Thank you! You are a very good teacher! I do have a question, though - why is this trick called Meltdown?

    Hi Drex, how are you doing? I want to ask you, did I just see your page to take the courses, and I would like to buy it, my question is, since my English is not very fluent, if the videos of the courses are with Spanish subtitles? I wait your answer. Grettings from Ecuador.

    name of the first song on the video?

  • @yuuuyuuyu
    @yuuuyuuyu Před 4 lety +3

    One of the first tricks I practiced as a beginner. It was so opening, feeling more connected, Groovy and expanded in my flow. One of my favs to put into sequences, they look and feel so cool. ✌️ PS. Insta: @poipaipei

      Waist wraps go very well with meltdowns, and you can transition between the two very amoothly
