I really liked the advice to yoyo in different places and in front of people more. I tend to throw mainly in my office and when I go to show people a trick I freeze or get shaky hands. ---

I’ve started to enjoy when people are walking down the sidewalk when I’m yo-yoing outside now. I used to stop and go do something else real quick, but now I guess I have more confidence to “show off” lol [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/katie-thompson-live-chat-giveaway-tuesday-06-03-5pm-pst-8pm-et/425967.md?page=1)
