How to perform a body tracing hybrid, a 1 minute tutorial for poi spinning! Learn the basics of poi dancing in a small, bite-sized video that covers the basics of body tracing hybrids. Got a suggestion for a 1 minute tutorial? Let me know down in the comments!
Start with your arms crossed, spinning the poi in split time same direction. Your top hand should be on the front side of your body. From here, raise both hands and switch one is in front and which is behind you. In other words, the hand that was on top and in front now goes behind your head. The hand that was on bottom goes in front of your face.
From here spread both arms out to the sides--make sure you're keeping timing and direction consistently in split time same direction!
Practice each of these individual spots: crossed, up high, and sides until you can get in a single beat in each spot. You'll find the poi are doing a 4-petal box mode antispin vs 2-petal inspin hybrid where one petal of the inspin flower passes behind your back and the arc between the two top petals of the antispin flower passes behind your head.
This makes this move a body tracer variant!
