Poi Tutorial: 3 Designs for DIY Poi (COVID-19 lockdown vlog)

There's never been a better time to learn poi! With so many folx working from home and/or in social isolation it's a great time to learn a skill that'll give you physical activity, a great mental challenge, and expose you to a broader community once the restrictions are lifted. Go on a journey into the poi world with me this coming week! We start off with the most important thing of all: getting a set of poi! Assuming you're restricted to common household items, this tutorial shows you 3 designs for homemade DIY poi that'll get you through the coming week. Every day for the next 7 days I'll be posting a new video showcasing something new for you to learn as you dive into the poi world. Come on this journey with me!
