2nd day on POI (2007)

Any advice? Critiques are welcome ^_^

I'm not too clear on the names, and I still don't know how to put moves together, but here is what I know so far

2beat weave, 3beat weave, 5beat weave, butterfly front and back?, chasing the sun, pinwheel, buzzsaw, 5 different turns, simple isolations, stalls, and I'm working on changing my plains/orbing.

Thank you meenik for all of the great tutorials ^_^ http://www.youtube.com/user/meenik

Ideas on new moves and advice would really help me out.

Noooo!! Coins?? O.O That could kill a person!

You should put rolled up socks into another pair of socks, or you could do it my way... I put 1/5 to 1/2 cups of uncooked rice into cut off toes of stockings, I then tie it off into a little ball Put those balls into your socks and you are set ^____^

I've noticed that the more you hit yourself and keep going, the more you learn. Still I slow down my speed if I'm trying super hard stuff.

Keep on spinning, and have fun ^____^ <3

bull shit no one can learn all that so fast.

Well, I spent two whole days working on it, and used online tutorials to walk me along. That's the truth =/

My back started bothering me around 3 months, so I stopped working on it. My progress really tapered off dramatically after that.

Right now I'm working on being creative with simple movements, and really using dance to express my self.

Anyway, I think it's pretty clear that I was new to it, since I had no flow. I just did one move at a time standing in one place.

take care

In 2 days you managed to pull off most of and more of what i have been using for years :)

Nice one... added to favorites and subscribed so I can slowly watch over the rest of your videos.

Looking forward to the future :)

I feel like I started off great, but I've hit this poi wasteland lately.

I think that I'm not that much better than my 2 month video at one year =(

I have to avoid BTB moves since I have back problems, so I'm trying to make up for that with dance and elliptical moves. I hope I can be as good as my earlier days suggest.

[Skazzious]

Im sure you will do fine regardless :)

Best bit is not to worry about how things are now... Not to think negatively about it and just keep going as if it were all a new experience.

If anything you may find that the way you will have to learn to add in your other styles will in fact make an entirely new and beautiful style... and you will feel nothing but pride... enough to be able to say that you created it... enough to have people come from far and wide to see

[otherwheregirl]

Thank you so much <3 I'll stick with it

You give me hope ^____^
