Practice
When practicing poi, I always run into people who ask to try them. After spinning them for five minutes and hitting them selves once or twice they say "i can't do it". Well no one can just pick up something and become a master at it first try. Everything requires practice. So don't get discharged if at first it doesn't work. If you can't figure out a move try a different one. Getting stuck on one move is very frustrating, and it's all about having fun! Also, don't practice the same move over and over again. You will start to developing muscle memory and learning new moves well become even more difficult. So when practicing never spend to much time on one move and learn it both ways!! you will be happy when you don't have to go back and learn the same move in the other direction. Here is a video of what i have learn with lots of practice.=]
