This course is awesome!

By Misti Tolleson on 11/7/2020

I have learned so much in this course. I've learned a lot easier than just picking random videos off the internet. I enjoy his personality and how he presents his lessons. ???

Great instructor, fun and clear videos

By Enzio Velazqueoni on 9/17/2020

I'm picking this stuff up really quickly! His explanations to performing the moves are extremely fine tuned!

By Urska Podvrsic on 9/9/2020

Love your energy :)

By Parisa Sahirad on 9/9/2020

I feel like Im learning the theory behind poi which is something Ive been lacking in all my flow props

By Tanja Tajnik on 9/6/2020

Love this kind of stuff. Flow arts in general is my passion. And your explanations is now only about moves but it is wider perceptions of body and moving. I am capoeira professor and poledance and flexibility certificated teacher so I see professional skills.

By Kristina Pertermann on 9/4/2020

Nick is such a great teacher who builds ab the moves thoroughly and frustration-free. The course is so much fun, I love his humour. I have been trying out some of the tricks last year already, but hit a motivational bump in the road at some point (more like a collapsed bridge) With his tips, it's easy to smoothe out the bumps and just have fun playing poi!

By Geese Howard on 8/25/2020

Clear, concise instruction. Fun to watch and play along. Great for beginners. Nick brings the Good Vibes.

By Pan Bolt on 8/21/2020
