I forgot I had this Gem from my travels last year capturing Dragon Ribbon Dance masters in Beijing.

I will be posting a longer video explain the origin of Dragon Ribbon Dance as a cultural variant of ribbon dancing. It is now also known to some as Dragon Poi/Streamer. Stay tuned!

For those interested in getting them, you can search on E-commerce websites for Dragon Ribbon/Poi/Streamer. Some places still maintain the name Fitness Dragon as well.

I made a basic tutorial for it for those interested to try: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fiyfIg1N-w

I've always had lots of dexterity in both hands and picked up buugeng pretty quickly so I picked up some LED ones. Just got these a couple weeks ago. Still learning.

I went to my first fest with lots of flow artists a couple years ago and fell in love with the idea of learning to use a prop. I went out and bought fans and a flow star right away, and have really been consistently falling deeper into the hobby the past few months (my flow star is basically security blanket at this point 😅), but I suffer from hypermobility and arthritis in my wrist and it's really taking a toll on them.

Any recommendations for props that don't strain the wrist as much?

Has anyone used a glow or LED/light up flowstars from various brands? Wondering how SpinFlowStar, Ultrapoi, and brain plague designs compare. Do you like the lights on one better? Is one just easier to spin?

Which would you recommend?

Thanks!
