All these years later and this is still one of the coolest performances I have ever seen.
Facts, I come back every so often, not just for the performance from Alvarez, but the love from the crowd❤
This man is clearly a wizard.
Nothing but Gandalf the whites descendant right there bubba couldn’t be anyone else he’s the ONE 😱👌
I ACTUALLY clapped while alone in my room! Amazing choreo, raw skills and showmanship. ❤️
Me too!
The best mic drop I've ever seen.
Facts.
Absolutely brilliant! First class performance, location & music. Thank u 🙏
What in the fuck did I just watch. . . 2poi I can follow 3poi and im mystified. That was awesome
this video made me get all teary eyed... everytime... his flow, his passion.. enough to move me to tears. i wish to meet this person sometime within my lifetime. the best thing i have ever seen. :)
thats crazy i teared up myself
his skill is overwhelming
2017... same here!
a year later im coming back to this video time after time... feeling even more for the art the more i get into it my self. This video is what got me to purchase my first set of poi
I agree, there is something so beautiful about this performance. I feel like watching it is both an honor and experience every time I rewatch it. I get all teary eyed … everytime … as well.
Amazing!!…that was not only a show it told a story!!!
the flow is strong with this one
I still find myself coming back to this video 5 years later… It still blows my mind every single time I watch it
I hope you magically see this comment one day Jonathan because you changed my life forever without ever knowing it and I’ll forever be grateful for you helping me find that “superpower” that we all have inside of us.
Same. It was like.. the moment gunslingers were created
The tempo, the timing, the choreo, the expression, the feeling. Wow. Choked me up a bit. Beautiful performance all around.
Mesmerizing. I showed my students this and they "happy-cried". :)
The BRUH levels just hit critical. Best poi show i ever done seen ❤
Still the best performance I’ve seen this past decade. 🙏🏼
He is literally the reason I stared poi! I saw him on CZcams 3 years ago and bought a pair of pod poi that night! Truly inspirational!
How's the poi going now? I have a flow wand but I've been really interested in poi (Though it looks so difficult!) and wanted your input on it.
Adreanne Martinez and hows your poi going now? :P so much time between these comments
yeah man i want to get some now i have an orbit which is pretty cool but poi podsmust be next
Where did you buy them ? I want some like his
@@lauramartinez1043 You can buy them at Flowtoys.com Jonathan here use the Podpoi V1 but V2 got released and I truely tell you Podpoi V2 are the best purchase ever you can do in your life :^p they are really awesome in every way! (also V2 is Podpoï V1 with an update firmware within it) They are not that easy to control tho because there is one button for a lot of features and modes, but it can be handle not that hard!
Also for people here I can tell you Poï change my life, in so many aspect, but what is the most enjoyable thing for me is that i am able to choregraphy music, I started poï since 2013/14 maybe and I took like 15/20 months before being ok with Poï and songs. Years went on and well the practice too, now when I do poï I just synchronize with the music waveform and i just spin as the song go, it is a feeling that give me these cold goosebump going throught all the body even under 38°C (True fact lol! I could'nt believe it)
Jesus, this was beautiful. I’m excited to get back into poi .
His precision and passion taps into your inner child making you dream again
I could watch this video a million times and never get tired of it 🙏
YOUR LEVEL IS INCREDIBLE, POWERFUL PROLIJITY, A BEAUTIFUL JOURNEY, THANK YOU. INSPIRED ME
this was one of the videos that send more people to my channel on the last mont.
thank you so much!
+ these pois are awesome.

Jakwob ft Rocky Nti - Blinding :) this guy is amaze!
Thank you for being an idol. Not to instigate anything, but when I just found poi, I was worried my weight would get in the way and i wouldn't be able to do. You sir, are proving that wrong to me. Anyone can do poi no matter what, and I hope you realize not only do you inspire me you inspire others to practice more and get better at poi. Thank you for rekindling a new dying fire.
That was wonderfully choreographed and very mesmerizing.
He learned all this 3-poi in 5 months. I met Jon at Lucidity in April 2013. I showed him a few tricks, and this is what he did. People can learned incredible shit. People are hella smart.
One of the best poi performances I've stumbled upon on all the internet. I'd love to see what he could do with some fire poi.
+Grateful James well he wouldn't be able to have fire handles, and gunslingers are a pretty huge part of his style. he was also holding the heads pretty regularly throughout this routine, and had a couple contact rolls in there too. I think it's arguable that a better show than with fire poi can be put on with pods with capsule handles (or equivalent).
Devon Cellars Yea but fire is fire. It's hot, raw, natural, powerful and intense. To me fire will always make for a better show, especially in person. And he could obviously handle it lol! But yeah either way he puts on a damned good show!
"fire poi" you mean "four poi" XD
Look up "polna v plamenech" or something like that. It'll have his name on it. It's from 2016, and he has fire poi!!
I rewatch this ungodly performance every year. Can't comprehend how it can be this good.
dnb303 Ungodly? Poi spinning has helped me feel closer to God and and is probably the closest to Godliness you can get.
I've watched this video ten times and my mind still can't grasp what the fork just happened! Bravo sir... you deserve a medal
every time i see alvarez spin im reminded why i spin and shown what i aspire to achieve. just beautiful
Thank you it touched me '😊 cheers from France
how the fuck does this not have more likes? friggin' epic! way to set the bar!
That was hands down the most amazing poi performance I have ever seen.
Insane !!! So mystical and gracious, this guy is so skilled !!
I must admit ... /respect ... That was a beautiful show ... I could feel the love that Jonathan Alvarez has put into that one ...
That was amazing, it sent chills through my body my hair stood up and I started to cry it was so beautiful.
GA dang , haaa, fricken cool. I bought my first poi after seeing him do this and found the instructor that inspired him, im doing lessons and will say Iv defentally entered a new dimension and it's a challenging one, defenitly requires a level of dedication. totally inspiring.
Legend. Yku are the reason I started spinning 2.5 years ago. Your video about bending ought has looked me in the face many times. I wish you were still public.. because you are an inspiration to SO many spinners out there
I’m not crying, you’re crying!!
You sir are an artist. I am blown away. Videos like this keep me going and learning and spinning. Thank you for this incredible performance.
Eu amo a simplicidade desse video ❤
Way ahead of the curve I cant believe this video is 6 years old
this is one of the most beautiful things i've ever seen!
Ambidextrous flow. Amazing. I can't even...wow.
Has to be one of the best in the world - yet to see another....
Each time I see this video, I always find this fantastic!! I'm also a spinner and love the podpoi. Jonathan is a model for me and I think for a lot of spinners around the world!
How does he do it so dang clean??? The flow magicians clearly have an understanding of the universe I can never achieve T_T
AMAZING!!!
I'm rarely in awe watching poi videos anymore nowadays, but this, hoooooly shit
jonathan alvarez you make me cry of pure joy
Too effing clean! You make the impossible look easy, and the easy look perfect.
i know aye, the planes are too perfect D':
Jonathan Alvarez is such an idol in the flow community! He’s a huge inspiration to myself and I hope to one day be close to his level 🙏🏽 but dam, it’s crazy because you don’t see this type of 3 poi flow anymore. He was such a pioneer!
WOW! You killed it!! there are only moments in life like this, that are...totally amazing!!! cheers
Hell yeah bro! That was beautiful!
That was amazing!!!!!
There's always a moment of WOW when I see your videos. This one was no different! I LOVE to watch you spin!
I remember this a while back. Man this still some fire. Damn. I love it.
The best I have ever seen! Love it! Bravo!
Beautifully done! I'm in awe
legit made me cry. I love how beautiful this is. keep it up!
I re-watch this video about once a month, and each time my jaw drops. I learn something new each time. Jonathan Alvarez is hands down my favorite poi spinner. So many unique tricks and techniques.
I've only just started really getting into flowing and seeing this now just solidified my desire to learn even more.
it's giving me goose bumps, such great flow and energy, thank you!!
And this is incredible. I love seeing the passion and talent! keep inspiring us!
this brought tears to my eyes... you're so great!
This video was exactly the inspiration I needed right now. Thank you so much Jonathan Alvarez, that was a brilliant perfomance!

This is the most amazing video.
This moved me deeply
Wow 🤩 absolutely beautiful flow 💛🧡💛
The heart and soul put into this 🙏🔥 go one my brother
Brilliant! Stunning! Beautiful ❤️‼️
That was amazing! I don't even know... but thanks.
I accidentally found out about Poi, when i was reading about all sorts and kinds of hobbies. At first I was like... uhm... what? Then I searched videos about it, and got here. This looks better than I expected. It has that "hypnotising" charm to it. GG, well done!
nice. I started there in about the same way. Believe me starting to practice it as a hobby is much different than just watching video's of it. You will feel clumsy as hell. When you compare what you try to videos you find online you'll feel like a penguin trying to fly while watching an eagle or something. But when you try learning it. You'll also appreciate it so much more.
I would go through tutorials thinking this is the move I want to learn. Then watch one and think aight this is what I need to go. And then fail miserably at it for days. But eventually you get the trick down and man I can tell you that is one of the most satisfying feelings there is. Getting better, smoother, and finally putting things together to find your own flow. It's all very nice things to do. Definitely a great hobby :)
That is absolutely beautiful
