The best part is this guy spinning a huge cube!!!! it totally rocked my world!! he was doing mostly staff moves it appeared, I cant wait to try!! Fairie firebell, spin on!

Not only does he light it on fire he balances it too..he is amazing. I am an avid Cirque fan. there is Soleil and another one that begins with a "D" that if I remembered my french I'd be able to remember!
However...they are also good to pick up poi tricks from (the sisters with bolas), diablos (the little chinese girls are amazing), and body manipulation while flat palming tools...which can actually be transfered into double staff moves...not easily but it can be done. I swear they are my idols and if I were younger I really would run away to join the circus!!!!

Alibaba...check out their web site...you can order videos and find out about audition information. I am literally debating auditioning.....I am in the end prolly too chicken to go through with it but....I can entertain the notion. Ren Faires are a far cry from the Cirque.At any rate...just check thier name in the web browser (can't remember exact address off hand...prolly ciruedusoleil.com), but it has lots of info on them. ------------------PeleHigher, higher burning fire...making music like a choir...
