move(s) of the day

Here's something i've been working on.-start with your left hand forward spinning, and your right hand reverse spinning.-Throw the left hand poi through your legs infront and throw your right hand poi through your legs from behind. Make sure you keep your left hand poi near your left leg and your right hand poi near your right leg as much as possible to make the move clean.-As the poi go through your legs and are a quarter done its rotation turn left (or right) bend forward slightly (the awkward body motion you have to do to get this right is laughable smile

) and quickly turn right again and let the poi exit from your legs. If your good enough you can continue in any direction you want without bailing out, haven't gotten there yet, its quite a difficult move for the length of my poi.viola, looks like your turning a butterfly between your legs with your hand infront and behind you.----------------------------oh ya, another move i just remembered. It's alot easier but also looks pretty good.-start from a forward butterfly.-lets say you turn to your right side, do a burning the nose move with your left hand going under the nose and your right hand going down above the nose.-Turn right again and join up for a rev butterfly.-----------------------------I'm in a good mood so i'll share one more smile

Tis a wrap-start from... err whatever you just have to be in reverse spinning. Lets say reverse low wave.-Lift up your leg and bend your knee at a 90 degree angle, bring your left hand poi under that leg, as it goes under and rotates, aim it toward your foot, it should go around your foot and stall and bounce back.-Another thing, you don't have to wrap it. You can just make it an under the leg move.-When your leg is at a 90 degree angle, let your left hand go under your leg, as it makes its rotation and is on its downswing bend your knee so its pointing toward the ground and make a kicking motion backwards. The poi should seemlessly exit your legs.-One more thing about the wrap one. Instead of letting it wrap, realease the handle as its wrapping and try to catch it with your right hand as the poi unwrap around. It should come out forward spinning. Or release the handle and catch with your left hand and it should come out reverse. anyways, some moves off the top of my head. enjoy smile
