So many of you may have wondered "Why on earth would Lucas have started this tribe?". I mean, there are already so many spinning related tribes out there, why both with this one?
Here's my theory. So we have poi, double staff, double whip, and so on and so forth. We've started cross pollinating the arts, and it's only going to get more blended and muddled.
This tribe explores and celebrates what they all have in common, the geometry (both body and toy) that they necessitate, the dance, the footwork, the interweaving that does not come automatically to single-prop styles. One might say that this commonality is what *allows* such blending between the arts to occur in the first place.
I, for one, hope that this tribe gives rise to new cross disciplinary brainstorming. I hope this tribe promotes ideas that don't belong in Tech Poi or Double Staff and Polystickery. I hope this tribe is not redundant.
That's my story. Why are *you* here?
