Posted: I have recently returned from a 2 week holiday from Thailand with the interest in teaching myself Poi. I have practiced a little but finding it difficult...it's all about the practice! I have lived in Ireland all my life with a multicultural background. My folks moved to Ireland in the 70's from Chile, South America. But i must say i definately have the Irish culture embedded in me!! I love having the craic! rpdiazf_pameladiaz@yahoo.co.uk

Thanks for the advice apparently there is a group on Tuesdays i was informed by someone who also is learning poi today so i'm happy out. I definately agree that it will be easier to understand what i'm doing wrong.

Welcome to HoP
There's an Irish thread in the events section, and you can find out about all the clubs and workshops in there.
Whereabouts in the country are you?
If you're in Belfast, let me know, and hope to see you soon
Best wishes Clare
