Poi and Fire in Vancouver BC
Classes and Lessons
Poi (and other) Tutorials
My goal is to fill in the blanks that other poi tutorialists have left in their online instruction. I'd like to help demonstrate the pieces that fit between the moves, the transitions that aren't taught, the basic elements that one can stretch in infinite ways. This project has been delayed, but not forever! Check back, or let us know if you'd like to join our poi email list, and we'll let you know when we've added new videos!
Practice Poi for Sale!
new and improved!
I make and sell fabric practice poi, also known as sock poi, tube poi, or cone poi. Materials range from cottony to satiny, and colors range from solid (red, orange, green, etc) to dual to fancier designs. They don't stretch, the handles are quite long, allowing them to be tied into different knot or loop configurations, and the ends open and close with a drawstring for easy changing of the weight. I use balloons filled with water, but the possibilities are endless.
