Ok.

I go to BodyJam at the gym on friday nights and there was a move in the bodyjam 20 independant woman track called the body roll. I believe this could be adapted slightly to make a wicked poi or staff move. This will only make sense to jammers and it is hard to explain to non jammers.

If you wish to try it. Hold your staff or poi in your left hand and work the movement. twisting the staff on the rib shift and the middle roll along with the pump.

Jus an idea.

I believe in freedom, love, truth, and beauty.

Ok Ill give it a shot. In aukland you should nearly be able to find someone who does it, the workout originates there.

ok a body roll is done standing with feet hip width apart and you kinda drop your left shoulderdown and to the right as though trying to get under a hip height fence. Sta up again. being your feet together and then you just push each piece of your upper torso out and in again starting from the head.

Then a pump is a step to the left and turn your chest concave, back, shoulders forward. one to a beat. I was kinda thinking then let your poi or staff follow your left hand.
