5 Cool Poi Tricks That Are Easier Than You Think!

Some poi tricks and both cool and relatively easy to learn! Easy is a relative term, of course, but these poi moves range from beginner to intermediate tricks and for my money have a much gentler learning curve than others. Learn the basics of poi spinning with these awesome tricks for beginners that will give you a leg up to spin your poi like a pro! If you'd like to learn how to do many of these tricks themselves, I'll leave links to tutorials that cover basic knowledge of them down below!

I love all of your videos Drex. Who's the best [by that, I, of course, mean your favorite] hoop tutorial content creator? Please list a few. There's no best at anything, and there's no reason to hurt people's feelings or to single anyone out. Respect and love

Hi Drex, I'm interested in taking up poi as a hobby, but i have mobility issues and usually struggle to stand for any length of time. Could you please do a video on what beginner techniques one could learn from a seat/wheelchair?

@maapauu4282 10 ай бұрын

I'd say that most poi moves are easy from a chair

@ElizabethFoxy 10 ай бұрын

Hi! Have you looked into contact juggling? Another flow art that can be done seated. That being said you can deffo get some poi. Shorten them and do some tricks like isolations, 3beat wave etc. Have fun flowing 😊

@@ElizabethFoxy thankyou so much 😁 i've never heard of contact juggling but i'll give it a look. Have a great day!

These tricks are so cool thank you for sharing this. Definitely have to practice the windmills more. Plus so want to learn how to do zan's diamond. These tricks you listed are actually really good plus inspiring me to learn all of them.

Wow, Drex!!! This has really gotten to a whole new professional level! Very nice job on the video. I’ve been learning from you for years and I’ve learned a lot of cool tricks. You’re a huge motivation and I’ll continue to to support you.

Great video, Drex! I am sharing with my flow arts friends. I actually have to admit one of my worst issues is windmills (despite doing poi and performing with it for over 7 years now) and other 2-beat weaves. But I have found videos to review them, and I love the anti spin steps you provided - will give those a try. Great tips!!

I..... Wow. I just had that moment I haven't had in years. I have been very nonchalantly leisurely spinning in basic-land for over a decade, and never quite landed antispins. They kind of happen, but I always accepted the imperfection due to my lack of drilling planes. But I watched the breakdown, rewinded and watched it again, put down my phone and said, "...what?" Dug out a poi, tried it out, and *click*. Man I miss those clicks! What a good feeling. Thanks, Drex! (And I totally had my pitchfork out).

@angrageous 10 ай бұрын

Might I add, the click was for not only the flowers, but stalls in general 😅

OMG.......your poi windmill, just helped me with flexi rods windmill with My Church flagging.😢😅😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

@Synthetic_Shell 10 ай бұрын

You made the last two tricks look much more manageable than I expected, but you were only using one hand. Doing two hands at the same time is where it's difficult.

@DrexFactor 10 ай бұрын

You can do both in together same and that's a reasonably low impact way to get both hands involved, but yes if you want to do any other timing and direction mode it's going to be a little more of a challenge.

Hmmm... gotta get back to spinning. Maybe I can finally learn thread the needle!

@paulminor4707 5 ай бұрын

how applicable is the Diamond and the flower (the last two tricks) with Fire poi? just "not using" one of them is not really an option while on fire, is it possible to do these double handed and with two poi?
