Whether you are working on wheel planes or wall planes, that 60 minutes of technical drilling is where the magic actually happens. It takes patience, but that feeling when the rhythm finally clicks? That is what we are chasing. My sessions aren't about stiff instruction; they are about understanding the physics of your prop so you can eventually just let go and move. ### Why I focus on Poi and DapoStar Learning a flow art isn't just about picking up a prop and hoping for the best. It is a form of movement therapy. When I teach, I break down complex-looking patterns into simple, repeatable motions. **Poi Spinning:** At IndieFlow, we focus on foundational plane control. If you can master the space where your poi spins, the tricks follow naturally. We use wall and floor markers to drill posture and timing, which helps keep your transitions clean. You will learn to dance with the poi rather than fighting against it. **DapoStar:** If poi is about rhythmic spinning, DapoStar is about balance. It is incredibly meditative. It demands a different kind of focus, helping you develop better spatial awareness and hand-eye coordination. It is a fantastic way to disconnect from the noise of the day. ### What to expect at the studio - **No intimidation:** We are located in OMBR Layout, and the environment is intentionally chill. - **Props provided:** You do not need to buy anything to start. I provide the practice poi and DapoStars. - **Small groups:** Whether you sign up for a single session or a monthly course, you will get actual feedback on your posture and technique. ### Can I really learn this? If you have ever felt 'clumsy' or thought you lacked rhythm, you are exactly the person I want in my studio. Flow arts are not an elite skill; they are a habit. We start with the basics, build the muscle memory, and eventually, you stop thinking about the mechanics and start focusing on the flow. It is all about the effort you put in, not some innate talent you were born with. ## About IndieFlow I’m Sarena. A lawyer turned flow artist who realized that 'play' shouldn't be an afterthought. I run IndieFlow in Banaswadi because I wanted a space where people, regardless of skill, could stop overthinking and just move.
