The simplest of moves in poi, it seems easy enough to execute. However take a few minutes to get this move right so it will lay the foundation to your learning to spin poi.

Notice that the poi are moving in the same rhythm and parallel to each other. The aim of this move is to restrict each poi to that side of your body and not to cross towards the other arm.

The problem you might possibly face is with your non-master hand.  Practice this a couple of times to feel the motion of the poi thru your wrist movement and not through your whole arm.
