this video made me get all teary eyed... everytime... his flow, his passion.. enough to move me to tears. i wish to meet this person sometime within my lifetime. the best thing i have ever seen. :)
a year later im coming back to this video time after time... feeling even more for the art the more i get into it my self. This video is what got me to purchase my first set of poi
I agree, there is something so beautiful about this performance. I feel like watching it is both an honor and experience every time I rewatch it. I get all teary eyed … everytime … as well.
I still find myself coming back to this video 5 years later… It still blows my mind every single time I watch it I hope you magically see this comment one day Jonathan because you changed my life forever without ever knowing it and I’ll forever be grateful for you helping me find that “superpower” that we all have inside of us.
@@lauramartinez1043 You can buy them at Flowtoys.com Jonathan here use the Podpoi V1 but V2 got released and I truely tell you Podpoi V2 are the best purchase ever you can do in your life :^p they are really awesome in every way! (also V2 is Podpoï V1 with an update firmware within it) They are not that easy to control tho because there is one button for a lot of features and modes, but it can be handle not that hard! Also for people here I can tell you Poï change my life, in so many aspect, but what is the most enjoyable thing for me is that i am able to choregraphy music, I started poï since 2013/14 maybe and I took like 15/20 months before being ok with Poï and songs. Years went on and well the practice too, now when I do poï I just synchronize with the music waveform and i just spin as the song go, it is a feeling that give me these cold goosebump going throught all the body even under 38°C (True fact lol! I could'nt believe it)
Thank you for being an idol. Not to instigate anything, but when I just found poi, I was worried my weight would get in the way and i wouldn't be able to do. You sir, are proving that wrong to me. Anyone can do poi no matter what, and I hope you realize not only do you inspire me you inspire others to practice more and get better at poi. Thank you for rekindling a new dying fire.
11 years later and this is still the greatest performance I've ever seen. I aspire to one do be able to flip it around my hands like he does. Idk if it's called a wagon wheel or a gun slinger but man it's so smooth. He's just the greatest to ever do it. So clean. So precise.
+Grateful James well he wouldn't be able to have fire handles, and gunslingers are a pretty huge part of his style. he was also holding the heads pretty regularly throughout this routine, and had a couple contact rolls in there too. I think it's arguable that a better show than with fire poi can be put on with pods with capsule handles (or equivalent).
Devon Cellars Yea but fire is fire. It's hot, raw, natural, powerful and intense. To me fire will always make for a better show, especially in person. And he could obviously handle it lol! But yeah either way he puts on a damned good show!
Each time I see this video, I always find this fantastic!! I'm also a spinner and love the podpoi. Jonathan is a model for me and I think for a lot of spinners around the world!
Legend. Yku are the reason I started spinning 2.5 years ago. Your video about bending ought has looked me in the face many times. I wish you were still public.. because you are an inspiration to SO many spinners out there
I re-watch this video about once a month, and each time my jaw drops. I learn something new each time. Jonathan Alvarez is hands down my favorite poi spinner. So many unique tricks and techniques.
OMG wow bro that was amazing. Its people like you that make learning so much better.. Just put on one of your vids and get inspired. Thank you John for making poi so awesome
He throws so much passion in to his performance it’s totally amazing I’ve been spinning poi to for some time and I want to be on his skill level that’s talent right there
7 years later and I still tear up like the first time. The song choice, the location, and Jonathon's amazing performance. Magical. Simply sublime.
Do you know the name of the song?? Can't find it anywhere!!

All these years later and this is still one of the coolest performances I have ever seen.
Facts, I come back every so often, not just for the performance from Alvarez, but the love from the crowd❤
I looked it up just now to watch it again, my favorite.
Amen
I ACTUALLY clapped while alone in my room! Amazing choreo, raw skills and showmanship. ❤️
Me too!
The best mic drop I've ever seen.

His precision and passion taps into your inner child making you dream again
He is literally the reason I stared poi! I saw him on TH-cam 3 years ago and bought a pair of pod poi that night! Truly inspirational!
How's the poi going now? I have a flow wand but I've been really interested in poi (Though it looks so difficult!) and wanted your input on it.
Adreanne Martinez and hows your poi going now? :P so much time between these comments
yeah man i want to get some now i have an orbit which is pretty cool but poi podsmust be next
Where did you buy them ? I want some like his

I could watch this video a million times and never get tired of it 🙏
Still the best performance I’ve seen this past decade. 🙏🏼

Mesmerizing. I showed my students this and they "happy-cried". :)
I rewatch this ungodly performance every year. Can't comprehend how it can be this good.
dnb303 Ungodly? Poi spinning has helped me feel closer to God and and is probably the closest to Godliness you can get.
The BRUH levels just hit critical. Best poi show i ever done seen ❤
Eu amo a simplicidade desse video ❤

I've watched this video ten times and my mind still can't grasp what the fork just happened! Bravo sir... you deserve a medal
I must admit ... /respect ... That was a beautiful show ... I could feel the love that Jonathan Alvarez has put into that one ...
Thank you it touched me '😊 cheers from France
One of the best poi performances I've stumbled upon on all the internet. I'd love to see what he could do with some fire poi.

"fire poi" you mean "four poi" XD
Look up "polna v plamenech" or something like that. It'll have his name on it. It's from 2016, and he has fire poi!!
That was hands down the most amazing poi performance I have ever seen.
Jesus, this was beautiful. I’m excited to get back into poi .
every time i see alvarez spin im reminded why i spin and shown what i aspire to achieve. just beautiful
That was amazing, it sent chills through my body my hair stood up and I started to cry it was so beautiful.
