only 30 hours to go

Swinging Workshops that I know are schedualled but not confirmed:

1-2 thurs staff beginners by sorcha
3-4 thurs staff contact int/adv by Glass

12- sunday cutting edge poi, Airwraps/hyperloops/isolations and cutting edge shit glass and coleman. (not really aimed at beginners, but come if your any level for inspiration) bring poi without tails if you can.

conventions are generally trick swap / skill share and mini informal workshops going on the whole time, so don't wirry if you're not there for the day of the workshop you want to do.

see you soon

oh and they finally posted a workshop list

Only all the workshops I'm listed for doing are wrong. So don't really believe it.

They'll be lists up on the day
Plus they've updated lots of other bits of the web site.

I'm taking the day off work and i'll be there friday afternoon and then probably saturday and sunday afternoon as well.

I've got a few cheeking little tricks up my sleeves, and no doubt they'll be slipping off my fingers at some point over the weekend.

I'll certainlly be there around noonish Sunday

see you there

woohoo! at last we get to go (its already been on for whole 2 days!).

looking forward to meeting everyone and possibly learning a few new 'keeping stuff in the air' moves (3 hours of videotape and a blank notebook should make up for my seive-like heed).

woohoo! (did i say that already?)

Woo - it was brilliant, cept for the very very cold nights (ice on the tent!).

I learned as much in 5 days as I have in the last 6 months...

TePooka were absolutely brilliant, the best fire show I think I've ever seen, and it was nice having a twirl wif em.

Thanks especially to Glass, for introducing us to about a million talented object manipulators..

My arms still hurt...

Sounds like a missed a cracker! Glad you all had a cool time I'll have to watch the amassed videos upon my return.
Reckon I picked up some of the vibe over here as I got inpsired to do plenty of juggling and spinning over the weekend.
