Hey all,
I'm a noob here so be kind.
I'be been doing poi for about 1 year and have come into it from the martial arts side of things (I have studied Shaolin Kung-Fu for over 9 years and so am used to swinging things around on lenghts of chain).
I swing fire and LED stuff and make a lot of my own poi, nunchaku etc.
