Ok, so I know that teaching POI can be hard, but how do you teach a child??!? My daughter is 5 (Cyanne) and she wants to learn how to spin fire. (obviously I have NOT let her try fire, we started with glowsticks). I have a hard time showing my adult friends (all 3 of them) how to do a weave....and I my-self am still learning.....so any ideas on how to teach a 5 year old PLEASE PLEASE post them............Thanx

Some times you need the help of others more than anything else
But you have to let them close enough to help......

Let's turn those old bridges we crossed into ashes.
We'll blaze a new trail,
and torch the rough patches.

I'll come back as fire and burn all the liars and leave a blanket of ashes on the ground.
