Flow Star

What is a flow star?

A flow star is a lightweight fabric prop shaped like a star with several pointed sections.

Its soft construction allows it to be folded, spun, tossed, balanced, and passed between the hands. The fabric creates flowing shapes as it moves through the air.

How it moves

Flow star movements often involve finger spins, palm spins, folds, flips, stalls, tosses, and catches. Performers can connect these movements into continuous sequences.

Because the prop is soft and lightweight, it is approachable for beginners and easy to practise in smaller spaces.

Visual style

Flow stars are commonly made with bright colours, geometric prints, or patterned fabrics. These designs make the movement of the star more visible during spins and tosses.
