2 weeks on poi (2007)

[Whisperlands]

How can you not hit yourself with those things? D: If I did that, my head would end up worse than if I had fallen down the stairs! xD

[kroneage]

All I can say is wow. I can't imagine myself being this coordinated and you even combine this with belly dancing? :O Me... somethings I'm very coordinated in, but either of these would be something I'd be good at. I can fly down a mountain on a snowboard, or do tricks, dives and somersaults on a jet ski but this isbeyond me! lol... ^__^

[irinelalex]

my God..is that you??that is great..sorry for the other part..u know;);)you look great..love the make up...great song!!is it misteria???

[otherwheregirl]

The song is from Delirium's album Karma

[frozensky86]

[myteetharebleeding]

[craighall92]

Damn your a fast learner and its nice that you know your planes

[spoerl92]

hot and good at poi?

thats 1 hell of a combo

hella good 4 2 weeks

[juggaloron]

like the poi... if you perfect your isolations, i'd like to see ya do some isolated 5 beat weaves. think it would help with smoothing some transitions. nice outfit

[electronikgt69]

yeah BABY yeah!!!

[ghazalitaa]

muy bien!!!!!!!!!

[Acid0Attack]

Hey ! Your are beautiful ! =D

[otherwheregirl]

Thank you ^_____^

[Waketodie]

great outfit i love it. the poi very good too

[poiwoman]

Nice costume. Very goth. For one week of practice..that is good stuff.You seem to be a little apprehensive about the windmill. I don't know anyone who has done isolations in a week. Great job. Keep it up!

[otherwheregirl]

Thank you ^_^

I'll try to work on my windmill. I appreciate the advice =D

[otherwheregirl]

I can thank nick for the isolations. That "dipping into the well" idea really worked for me.

[poiwoman]

:) What would we do without nick. Now that I think of it.. may be you couldn't do the windmill because of the top. tried any BTB moves?

[otherwheregirl]

How many BTB moves are there? o.O I really need to get around to trying out the BTB 3beat weave. I think it will really help with my flow =/

At the moment, I'm working on the 4beat windmill/fountain, and opening up more of my moves.

[andetus]

every move can be a BTB move (for the most part)

if you got the flexablity BTB crossers, or waist wraps, or what ever you feel like calling them are cool, and fun, and open up all kinds of smooth and interesting transitions while you're moving around

[otherwheregirl]

I have waist wraps, and the BTB weave, but it really hurts my back, so I don't do them.

I hope I can get strong enough in my back, to do those moves though.

[andetus]

hmmm, reply to post doesnt work from my computer, and I should really pay attention to dates on things when commenting

[superiorsantateresa]

beautiful gothic girl, nice music and poi X3... 5/5! =P

[otherwheregirl]

Yay! =D

Thank you <3

[spectator1920]

I'm going to take a wild guess: You live in Providence You go to RISD You have done / will do Waterfire at some point.

(It's the music in the background that makes me say that)

Well done, good luck, and post any of your Bharatanatyam!

[otherwheregirl]

Wow! That sounds really amazing, but I am just a Nor Cal girl =)

My non fire show is in San Francisco =D

When my back is feeling better, I should do some Bharatanatyam, but I only learned it from video, so it may not be that great.

[vistavision2]

Nice! posted EXPO 09 Divine Wind

[AmberLindstrom]

I totally dig the wig and awesome idea to put a white stripe on the socks. I think it really makes a difference. I love the red top underneath, shame that it was restricting arm movement though! Maybe just try for some fingerless gloves?

[otherwheregirl]

Thank you so much =D

I finished that costume, and I should be posting a video of it soon.

[poifuego]

love the costume, would you marry me!!

[cicisdeliverysez]

Nice! you are doing good for a week. just keep practicing! :D

[xamordax]

YEAH! You look amazing as always. : ) I really like the costume. Elegant and dangerous at the same time. Nice moves. Really! You've improved. I will be posting a new video soon as well. : )

[0rchidmoon]

Nice music and costume ideas!

[otherwheregirl]

I cut & styled the wig myself. It was like a $20 buy ^_^

The makeup & hair is exactly the same as my photoshop geisha/Chinese-Opera photo.

[otherwheregirl]

Yay! Thank you so much ^_^

I was surprised that I didn't knock off the wig with my poi haha.

I guess I'll get better at spinning in fluffy skirts and costumes with more practice.

[0rchidmoon]

Very cool wig!  That's what I love about you... You might find something but by the time you are done with it, it has completely transformed into something quite unique!

[macidiot]

I like the outfit, the lines on the socks look good too...
