i came up with the solution (consider it preventative medicine)
to stay in dance mode and never get overly obsessed with the technical aspects of the poi (a constant temptation).
1. always keep your feet moving (i.e. move your base, keep it dynamic)
2. hop to the beat! (i.e . generally only have one foot on the ground)
3. smile!
4. play in 3space, i.e. hop up on tables, chairs, beds, stairs, anything that can get your body off plane, adding a third dynamic to the physical equation and a spontaneity to your movement.
with these going, its hard to get lost in the tech. dancing ensues!
oh, of course, you've got to have music playing!!! LOUD!
