Poi lessons, fire tutorials, spinning videos, twirling workshops by Asaf More

I’ve been making lots of video tutorials in the last year or so, all of them are available on my youtube channel, as well as the Homeofpoi.com Library. There are some older tutorials I want to remake, as well as completely new ones I have planned. To be updated on new poi tutorials, video lessons, and poi workshops, you can subscribe to my newsletter

These tutorials are great if you plan on attending one of my poi workshops, These will give you a good base to expand upon, and will allow me to help you explore poi even further.

Here they are, broken down into categories:

Throws:

Stalls and Wraps:

Flowers:

I often get replies to videos asking what gear I’m using, here’s a list of what I currently have and use regularly:

Pendulum Poi from HOP:

I got my first pair of pendulum poi from Ronan, his design is slightly different than HOP’s, they use thicker string, which I found really helps with contact moves and throws, as it’s more visible and spins slower, which means contact will be much easier. The contact ball poi heads are also great due to their weight, which allows a lot of control for stalls and floats for example, but their not too heavy so they don’t wear down your shoulders when doing flowers, for instance.

4 inch Mura stitched fire poi from HOP:

Having to quickly and cheaply replace my fire heads, I ordered these. They’re great, they have pretty large flames due to their surface area, and burn for about 3-4 minutes with Lamp Oil. They’re very good and have a very good price, personally I find them a bit too light, but I’ve grown used to home made monstrous Isis poi which were way too heavy, so light is better this time around.

Pro Series Chains with Wooden Ball Handle:

So far these are the best chains I’ve found, and the ball handles makes these perfect for throws. They are one piece with a quicklink at the end to allow switching poi heads, they have 2 swivels, one attached to the handle and one right before the quicklink, coupled with the chain, which is very durable, these allow for orbitals to be performed without any risk for the chain (unlike ball chain). The fact that they’re one piece also means they’re much safer and less painful than their counterparts with many split rings and large quicklinks all over the place.

All in all these are really worth their price and are definitely the best chains I’ve ever used.

This is my latest video, I made it to show some of what I can do before heading off to Europe:
