Finally!!! I am starting to feel like I am making a little progress when it comes to spinning poi. It is so incredibly rewarding to get to see my perseverance starting to pay-off after all this time.
The sensation is indescribable – an unanticipated explosion of excitement and satisfaction that comes from overcoming barriers that once seemed insurmountable to me.
Spinning poi has really been teaching me a lot about practice, focus, determination, and facing challenges head-on even when you feel like you aren’t making any progress.
I know I still have a long way to go until I finally get proficient enough at spinning to get into that mythical smooth flow state. That is the part I am most looking forward to and the distant goal that I keep pointing my personal compass towards.
I really rather get there sooner than later but I know it will take as long as it will take. I am just so glad I have Nick Woolsey’s course now so I have a map of where I need to go and how to get there. I wasted so many years previously just chasing after tricks instead of learning the basic building blocks.
