to get back on the subject of this thread:

last year, when I still practiced on the main square during the day to do a show after dark, one of the regular (non poi or fire-) performers came to me and said: "please don't take this as an insult: but you swing like a girl!!!".

normally that would be enough to start a bar fight, but I was really flattered by that compliment...

so does that qualify me as a wiggler too?

i guess so i mean lets face it when girls twirl poi its poetry in motion,

so yeah if u swing like a girl then u swing like the best

Shut up and dance cause I wanna pop.�

Well, shall we go?
Yes, let's go.

Girls doing twin staff is also a pretty sexy look - Altho i must admit i'm shocking with a staff

But definatly prefer my poi over staff anyday, like most girls i know...

But yeah, there is something sexy i guess in the body moving with the poi, not being forced into artifical "look-at-me-i'm-trying-to-be-sexy" poses - Just comes off looking fake and forced and just a little (okay, a lot) silly.

But the unconcious movement and enjoyment of the poi is a fabulous thing to watch.

I smile because i have no idea whats going on!!

Aim high and you'll know your limits, aim low and you'll never know how high you could have climbed.

boys



i know a few girls that are way up on the tech side of things.



but they tend not to get hung up on that kind of spinning (drilling really hard techy stuff that tends to end up as just small variations on a theme) which i have seen happen to several male spinners in the past (myself included).



just cos they don't talk about it on the internet, doesn't mean they can't do it...

wasn't being touchy dude - was just answering beth (badly )

and to be fair, i never said anyone said girls couldn't be techy, but i was addressing this post from a while back:

Sure, girls can wiggle like a bucket-o-worms but I gotta say that Ive never seen a girl who is technically good at poi. Im not saying they cant and there are none, but Ive never seen any. Even girls who have been doing it for 5+ years have more wiggle than moves. Whats up with that?



what gave you the impression i was being touchy?
i don't think i was i out of order...?

greenthumb - sorry if i seemed at all grumpy.

i can assure you i was just posting me comments as usual - the orange face is nothing to do with my feelings when i post by the way.

guess i might be a little itchy to get home.

all i can say is: monday, work, need, to, go, smoke

::puts on tutu pretends to fit in:: hey guys can i join this post?

::::does a little monkey man dance::::
You'll understand when you see his dancing feet

I still dont quite get what you mean by techy? Is techy someone who can do hyperloops/isolations/5 bts/7bts etc. etc. ? As opposed to a non-techy person who dances a lot with more basic moves?? Or can someone whos seen me spin tell me which i am?
