Do you think these pants make my butt look too big? What's too big?
Marmite, Vegemite, or Nutella?* Honey! Yes I am a rebel!

Have been twirling poi for about 2,5 years now. I actually learned it with fire poi from some friends. Actually got the hang of it pretty quick. I started doing fire shows a while later with some friends for a ski and board demo, with just some basic moves. Since then I have been learned quite a bit of moves. I do have to work a lot on transitions. I only made sock poi a while after, when I became interested in the finer works.

Here is some footage of me this summer. Do note my leg was broken just 3 months before, so this is a bit static. It's the only material I have at the moment:




I hope to improve my techniques here and see some alternative stuff. I have some preferences to certain moves, like most of us I guess, but I am always interested in new variations.

See you around!
