Adding an extended same-time turn to chase the sun
Build a longer same-time turn into your poi chase the sun by pairing the pattern with a full rotation to the left. Nick Woolsey offers footwork options based on your turning level, from shuffling through a pivot step to a pirouette, while keeping your eyes on a clear focus point to stabilise the spin.
Drill a clean up-one-side/down-the-other pathway without adding extra looping, then explore slow, extended timing and relaxed breath to lengthen the turn. Once consistent, return to chase the sun and drop the extended circle in occasionally as a controlled variation before re-entering the base pattern.
