We filmed a poi lesson on 5-beat weaves in Austria, including musings on 7 and 9-beat weaves and the idea of winding and unwinding. Remember to come to playpoi.com/poiticip ate if you like what we're doing.

One of my favorite videos yet, shot in Prague, Chech Republic. Covers the 4-beat windmill and corkscrew, the matrix move, the 4X4 fountain, and an update on colecord. (If you go to homeofpoi.com to buy colecord, remember to use code "sdecafingdengbmmqu. " then I get a little percentage which will help me make more videos, and remember to visit playpoi.com!)

Our first non-poi tutorial! Meteor is like combining poi and staff spinning, and it's fun! This video shows you how to get started. Filmed in Switzerland.
Fimed by Camilla Griggers in February, 2005. Nick was unsure on whether to release it or not, as he's a bit shy. It really was a very unexpected interview, and was shot very early in the morning, just after a weekend of poi workshops, and just before Nick had to catch his plane. He doesn't always look like this.
