Suggestions for one-armed practice

Nick Woolsey offers practical ideas for continuing poi training with one arm, with an emphasis on bringing your non-dominant side up to parity. The focus is on one-armed isolations, drilling clean positional checkpoints and smoothing the hand–poi relationship through each phase of the cycle.

You’ll also be directed towards one-armed stalls as a high-value drill for control and precision. The lesson highlights working both directions and exploring multiple planes and orientations so the weaker arm develops reliable mechanics that transfer back once two-armed training resumes.
