Hello from HALIFAX

Hi there!
I'm zissy and well I'm here for the poi. I've been spinning for only 4 months, but I'm getting not to shabby. I'm from Halifax, Nova Scotia.. so anyone in the area get in touch with me to spin. I dunno what else to say.. Nice site you have going here.

Hello there, welcome to the site, glad you like it! :57

So tell me, what's your favourite colour? Sphism/gigglesmiley

PINK of course.

Today was a painful day of bruises, from my evil uncooperative poi. I don't know why I can't crack BTB moves. I've watched every BTB video in history and I can't even get 2 beats without wacking myself in either the face and/ or leg. Its TRAGIC really. All I do is injure myself. And BUZZSAWS... don't even get me started, I know its not that complicated but my stoopid boobs keep getting in my way. and yes, I shorten my poi. I know this is stupid of me, but I don't own practice poi per say, just fire poi, so I being kinda hard physically on myself, learning new moves, but its my own fault....

Welcome Zissy- Sphism/smilesmiley

Sorry to hear about the bruises- we've all been there believe me (well apart from the boobs bit- I should be so lucky!) ANYWAY!

Have you tried just spinning one poi and making the crosses BTB? This will really start the muscle memory process you need to feel comfortable reaching around the way that you need to- I'm currently doing something similar to limber myself up for BTB waistwraps.

Hope thats of some help- it will come, justkeep at it and take a break if it all gets too frustrating Sphism/smilesmiley

Good luck and happy spinning,

Chutney :57

big welcome zissy!!

yes chut is right try btb just with one poi. Sphism/winksmiley
if i learn a new move i mostly try it by using one poi, its easier for ur muscles, or easier for ur brain...... Sphism/smilesmiley

take good care!

welcome to spherculism zissy... :57 just practice the btb stuff for a short while everytime you pick your poi up an yer arms will eventually work it out for themselves. feels weird and tiring to begin with but once the muscle memory's there it gets easier an easier... (says the man who still hits himself with poi all the time) Sphism/winksmiley

hulloo hulloo and welcome to the land of circles!
new btb stuff is always a struggle, but keep the faith, and use the force. all will be well.... peace
