Hey Martina. I was a drum major and did baton as a kid so I think spinning things has been a thing of mine for awhile too. lol They have staffs and chains and all kinds of things. It just looks like so much fun to me. Now if only I could get some of my coordination back! I have been practicing with sock poi and I have hit myself more than I have actually completed a full move by far!
So yeah I was a drum major, child of two teachers, the youngest child, a girl scout... looking at me from the outside I am a total goodie goodie. Which was always far from the truth but hey. I never got blamed for things or was looked at like I was just a problem child. I so skirted by on my sweet girl image. I stuck with a plain Jane kind of image, I didn't want to stand out much. While I still don't really want to stand out, I want to enjoy my life and pursue things I have always had an interest in but held back for stupid reasons.
