3-beat weave lead-up #2

This lead-up drills the forearm crossing pattern that underpins a clean 3-beat weave. You practise alternating which arm is on top, building the feel of left-crosses-right and right-crosses-left rather than trying to count every beat.

Nick Woolsey emphasises keeping the movement in wheel planes by using a small torso/shoulder turn so the bottom hand can fall back, cross, and finish with a circle on its side. The key constraint is that whatever is on top stays there while only the bottom poi travels, helping you stabilise timing and pathway before linking into the weave.
