The poi butterfly and thread the needle–why are they different and why are they both important? In this beginner poi lesson I’ll take you through what makes these beginner poi tricks work and why what makes them different includes important lessons on poi spinning basics including plane control and plane bending. These two basic poi moves are a rite of passage when it comes to poi for beginners and the lessons they teach are invaluable for one’s flow journey. You’d be amazed at how many important ideas important to poi spinning are buried just within these two poi tricks!
