yeah nice idea - I am really struggling to get the behind the back stuff sorted it seems that everything is in really awkward planes when I have tried so far - want to try and crack it before my beaming balls arrive and I start causing myself serious injury!!

Behind the back stuff shouldnt be sooo daunting...
Have you tried simple behind the back stuff?
eg butterfly behind the back... Undertucks? Both sides?

I am running into problems doing two different weaves behind the back... The standard 3 beat behind the back (backwards) and the weave behind the back which runs in front of the body and then goes behind the back... I can kinda get it on one side but I dont get how to take it to the other side....
Any suggestions besides trying to train my hands to move that way?
Oh... Can anyone here thread the needle backwards?
Much love, drome

I cant stop doing poi if I pick them up on shrooms, the jugglers curse in a way...

I've actually been made to stop and rest by my other half on several occasions.
