5 beat reverse weave.

it is only now i can do reverse weaves that i understand fully the advise which was bestilled to my attention. Thanx for the advise jes x x x

"When learning it have you're hand quite close to you're head.

For me it feels like I'm lifting my hands for the exra circle on the backwards one, whereas it felt I was going lower with my hands when I first got the forwards one. I think. "


for me that advice was golden... i didnt even realize that the reason why i couldnt do the reverse was exactly that: i was afraid of hitting my self in the face.

once ur hands are close to ur face tho, ull probably only hit urself in ur back... no sweat there. im still working on it makin it good, but i definitely got the beats in there, which was my goal.

thanks, and i recommend the same advice to anyone tryin to learn.

Arrr, so annoying. I'm so close to getting this right, I think. At first i was hitting myself in the head all the time, now my problem seems to be when say at the far right side of the weave (where u start going infront of your body again) my right poi wraps over my left arm, same on other side, sometimes.

i nailed my forward and reverse 5 beat(reverse still needs abit of cleaning up tho)

But the trick is the arm that needs to go through to the other side, thats where the problem is, thats why you hit yourself, because it doesnt feel natural. I found actually using your other hand to "push " it over to the other side while in the 5 beat helps alot, you will see that the other hand will automatically follow.

Tried and tested on a few people already.

Yay can do it now, kind of, its not perfect but i can do it. Figured out that pushing thing and it does help a lot.
