  • The tutorial you've all been waiting for! My #quarantinecontent 3-beat weave poi tutorial drops today. Perhaps the most popular and well-known of the poi moves that beginners take on, the three beat weave will require you to take many of the ideas from a previous poi lesson on reels/tic-tacs and apply them in a very new way. Confession: I think this is actually a bit of a cruel trick we play on people who've just started with their flow arts journey. Several of the steps involved in learning it are pretty counter-intuitive and personally I believe that there are several other tricks you can cover first when you first learn how to spin poi that are lower hanging fruit and set you up for better technique down the road. That said, I do also have to admit that it looks really cool. We've covered several beginner poi tricks in my series thus far but this is definitely the one most people are thinking of when they think poi!

    Sometimes i have a hard time seeing what i'm supposed to be doing because you're facing me/us. For me it might help to see you from the back because then my poi/hands would be doing the exact same thing as opposed to the mirror of your actions. Also when we get the view from your POV helps too but i found it made me dizzy. Isn't it funny how we each learn using different methods. That's why i find your teaching style so encouraging, you show many different tips and ideas to help the lightbulb go off in our heads.

    @tylerkamarata958 Před rokem +6

    It turns out I had been doing a 2 bit weave for so long before this. Your explanation and exercises were amazing! Allowed me to learn the 3 bit in one night! So grateful for you

  • @christinesixxteen8809

    I had such a hard time with the three beat wave until I followed this tutorial. Excellent progression and explanation. Looking forward to working with more of your tutorials as a beginner spinner! Thanks so much!!!!

  • @MyTheLad

    Hi Drex! I started spinning on May 7th, and started on your old beginner series before finding your quarantine content (which is amazing btw, I am a patreon subscriber now because of this series! Thank you so much for all of this... I just got to catch up now haha). So, I did get to 2-beat weaves before getting into this series, but the technique in this video got me smoothly from 2-beat to 3-beat weaves! These are so fun to do :D

  • @TarcianaDancer
    @TarcianaDancer Před 3 lety +1

  • @MrSkofu
    @MrSkofu Před 4 lety +1

    THIS IS MAGICAL!
    I had the two-beat weave locked down and tried a few tutorials to level up to three beat and never managed. Started back from scratch with your method and after forcing myself to follow your moves and taking my time it just started to work, this is the best way I've seen yet (as a newbie) this to be taught. Thank you so much for your work!

  • @sunnygrail3486

    I remember learning the 3 beat weave from the 1st time you taught it years ago and only came back to learn how to teach my friend as its all muscle memory for me now so its hard to explain. This method does seem simpler so hopefully she will pick it up quicker than I did. 🙂

    Hi Drex, really Amazing.... I'm Ella from Indonesia, start my spinning last 3 Nov 23, I'm following your steps... I can do spinning and butterfly very well now, but this 3 beat weave is not easy for me...but I'm trying to get it.... Thank you so much,

    @charlesmcclure8000 Před 2 lety

    When I found you, I didn't dig it. But I gave you a little more time and I dig it now. Good job.
    The "button press" changed my life
    Maybe don't look directly into the camera during the slowmo. Felt like you tried to steal my soul

  • @caliban88
    @caliban88 Před 4 lety +1

    Excellent work as always Drex! I hope there is a reverse 3-Beat weave around the corner (having a hard time mentally getting that one down).

  • @evandavis7
    @evandavis7 Před 2 lety +1

    Turns out I've been doing this absentmindedly before I got to this video while thinking "I wonder if this is something." We had a bit of a section of PE in high school where we used Indian Clubs and this was pretty similar to one of the exercises they taught us, so I'm glad to see it translates well to poi!

    @PraiseDanceLessons Před rokem

    So I was able to follow everything pretty well up until 8 minutes in, then I just lost it. But somehow I can magically pull off a 3-beat weave if I turn my brain off haha! I guess I'll continue practicing it till it becomes more natural, and then I'll try to slow it down to figure how I'm doing it. Thanks for all your help!! I love your videos!!

  • @lynneparis4391
    @lynneparis4391 Před 4 lety +2

    I tried and can do the top movement but have difficulty with knowing what to do with my bottom hand. When I watch you it’s so quick. Would it be easier in the mirror so we see you the same side as us not the opposite side?

  • @ashanarchy7255

    @ashismyname21 Před 2 lety

    Oooof, this one does not seem to connect with me. I do the arm thing to "push the button" but then i can't make my brain move the arm that just did the pressing while the other one has already started moving. I swear, it feels like i'm never going to get this stuff.
    I did it once for about 2.5cycles & as soon as i realized that it felt "right" my brain was like NO & i instantly fucked it up & can't for the life of me get it back
