More whirling practice

Drill the footwork foundation for poi whirls by repeating a pivot-step pattern while maintaining clean posture. Nick Woolsey cues pelvic floor engagement and an open chest so your torso stays tall and organised as you rotate, rather than collapsing or throwing the hips back.

Train two full turns in each direction while staying centred over the turning foot, keeping your body in place instead of travelling. Use a fixed reference point to spot and check drift, helping orientation and reducing dizziness. This control sets you up to add poi and keep whirl patterns stable and readable.
