Truth be told, I’ve been really overthinking this post - worried whatever I shared wouldn’t be a sufficient display of my progress. But then I found this note I wrote myself awhile ago:
“It is so easy to lose yourself in your admiration for others. But your individuality is what draws people to you and your expression is worth cultivating.
Resist the compulsion to capture every moment. To prove your progress outwardly. The journey is the whole point, you have never really arrived.”
The reality is that no clip will ever look as good as the flow feels. It’s a shallow representation of the entire story - all the hours spent turning impossible movements into second nature, all the decisions and tradeoffs made in practice, and the payoff of moments where the world quieted and you felt in perfect sync with the music and like your poi were truly extensions of yourself.
So grateful for flow and all it’s taught me. So grateful for this community and everyone who’s cheered me on, created space, and helped me grow. So grateful I have a lifetime to keep practice and enabling my self expression.

Criticizing yourself at all has me flabbergasted based on your skill. Social media has diluted our sense of progress. You are incredible. Always share. Share the mistakes. Share the wins. Our hardest critics are always ourselves❤️

This post perfectly encapsulates the feelings I have with flowing ❤️ love the message. We are always our own worst critics, but we keep coming back and working on those things and eventually we notice how far we come. You were and continue to be my inspo to seriously focus on practicing regularly even if I don't feel "good" at it.
