Reviewer: Geoffrey Greenwalt from United States
This is not a video full of individual tricks or combination's of moves spelled out in slow motion. If that is what you seek look at the encyclo-poi-dia series. this is true exercise of planes and plane control and variations, Body positioning, general health, and as an experienced poi spinner i found most of the information presented to be extremely useful. the exercises i learned here have already become an integral part of my daily routine

Reviewer: Peter Hammond from Australia
this Dvd has helped me so much, its an amazing dvd
with so many helpful tips to help you learn moves
that seemed almost impossible without proper
teaching methods. Nick Woolsey is an inspiring
teacher, many thanks to HoP for having this dvd
available to purchase, i learnt new moves within
hours of delivery :-D

5 starsMissing it dearly,Jul 15, 2011

Reviewer: Dustin Camper from United States
Recently, my house was broken into, and I got robbed clean. Among the many things stolen, were my collection of Poi Dvds. Most of the items taken, i didnt care too much about. the one thing that hurt me was seeing my "special" dvd collection wiped out. I know they grabbed em cause it was next to the video games (tv, surround sound, ps3, xbox, wii, and like 50 games, 200 movies and a crap load more stuff was lifted out of my own house...)
I know these dvds were discarded almost immediately by the theives. (I found tossed discs down the road the next day, tossed out of a car, but none were saveable.
But this DVD was the most valuable tool ive ever had when it came to poi.
Instead of teaching tricks and tech, it teaches how to flow, open up, dance, and evolve.
This is a MUST OWN dvd for any poi spinner serious taking their flow to the next level. As i said before, i miss it dearly. i would give this DVD 6 outta 5 stars. Thats right, . . a 6.

5 starsWonderful!,May 26, 2011

Reviewer: Scott Marshall from Australia
Very nice DVD and well worth the investment!

Gives a better insight into the intermediate/advanced moves and backs it up with all the necessary theory!

4 starsLots of Info, Lots of Challenge, and Fun Host :),May 12, 2011

I did not mind paying for this video. There's a lot of information and range in skill levels with a fun and upbeat tone. Thanks, Nick.

4 starsMy review,Apr 13, 2011

Reviewer: David Smith from United States
I bought this DVD in addition to some practice contact poi. Having only watched through it once, I know I'll return to it, time and again, as it is chalk full of theory and applicable ideas.
I really enjoy the poi and health section, as I am recovering from a shoulder injury (not related to poi), and have gained a stronger idea about how the shoulder moves.
The ideas Nick brings to the table has really opened up my ability to spin compound circles, as well as given me a better mobility; i.e. turns, 360's, and walking.
I recommend this video.

5 starstumbs up !!!!!,Mar 31, 2011

Reviewer: Staci Sheehan from United States
I learned a lot about moving my body while spinning. I feel
more free when poi spinning!!

5 starsScales of Poi: One of the best instructional DVDs I own,Feb 27, 2011

Reviewer: Shannon Townsend from United States
I've purchased many instructional DVDs over the years as supplements for on-hand instruction. I'm a belly dancer before a poi spinner, but I got into poi spinning as a way to enhance my dance work, and it kind of sucked me in.

Often, instructional DVDs brush things over, skimming the surface as a way to promote a style of dance or art. But this one was refreshingly thorough.

Nick does a lovely job explaining not only the basics of poi as an art form, but breaks down the exploration of this movement in a very thorough way that provides the viewer with a solid routine of exercises and practices that will not only genuinely increase range of movement, but opens a whole new door of creativity for the student. Everyone from beginners to seasoned professionals can, I believe, learn something from this DVD.

Just drop the cash and get it. You will not be disappointed, and your spinning art will only grow from here.
