One Hand Butterfly BTH

The one hand behind the head butterfly is achieved by paying special attention to the planes that the poi are swinging in. Committing to the move is also essential, you really do have to throw the poi back there. Start with a normal butterfly but hold one poi in between your little finger and the next one along whatever that one is called. When you are at the top or the bottom of a beat and your hands are reasonably close together, pass one poi over to the hand which we mentioned before. At this point you just continue doing what you were doing before the pass (with both hands if you want) The idea is that you don't disturb the stability of the butterfly. It is quite easy with a little practice.
