Do you actually mean a 12 inch or 14 inch wand or do you mean a cane also called a walking stick?

Good question Bill. See - most wand spins are not around your body, but rather 360 in your hand or around your fingers. Canes can be spun or floated around the body. Many cups and balls DVDs teach various wand spins.

Hi Tony, like your new avatar. The reason I ask, is because on eBay the oriental seller list canes. One even set a free plastic cane to me for purchasing from them. When I got it, it only extends to about 24 inches. So, I would not call that a cane, but they do.

What comes to mind is Losander's Dancing Wand, but it can be swung around the body flowing your hand and arm, like in the Dancing Cane routine.

Clarification is needed.

Hello guys

What I am trying to do is to make the wand go around my body like a circle and come back to the front Smile

MikeTheKid, I understand what you want to do, but you did not answer my question, as knowing what the length of the thing you are intending to use will determine the method.

The is no exact method for this use of a wand, you could use the method as used with the Hummer Whirl-A-Way Card. This is sold under many different names.

Is this they type of effect you are going for, see the card fly at 6:30 time line?

Depending on what you are going to do before the around the body effect, you could also use the dancing cane hook up.
