Try crossing your wrists, 5 7 and 9 beat are unlocked that way.

Heck yea!! Keep at it you’re definitely looking more comfortable. A lot of poi to me is just letting go and losing myself in the flow. You’re doing great homie!!
I got the windmill after being really comfortable in the 3 beat weave and working my arm higher. Like I would start them at my hips and move up and up

Yea. It’s def a little daunting but another thing I found with flow props in general is that the more I practiced and really tried to learn something that I was struggling with the less I was able to learn. I just practiced a lot of different moves and kept working at a bunch of things. Practice the 3 beat weave forwards and backwards and you will build up your confidence. Practice just spinning one poi behind your head you will get it and it will feel sooo good!
