This month we cover a variety of different poi turns, including chaines, soutenus, and poi pirouettes. Overall this tutorial covers how to do poi turns with that one special poi dance move everyone wants to try at some point: how to do pirouettes. I've got a great jazz-influenced exercise here to show you how!
