I heard a rumor that Jay Latour might also be teaching? Can anyone confirm or deny? I know he will be in Oz at the time at least. He's an amazing Frenchie, yes he is indeed he is...

No, G's real name is NOT Jay Letour. Jay is a secret french poi master. With short hair. And he's called jay.

OK
there's Jay Latour. He's French. He's coming to SPIN and Circadia.

There's _G_ He's English. He's coming to CIrcadia and I dunno about SPIN but he sounds like a spinner who deserves capital letters!!!

Now I'll get out of here before someone accuses me of cross-posting.
And Petey' Mark isn't in the teaser vid cos he's... teasing!!! mwaaahahaha

This should be pretty fun. I've never seen Jay Latour, but I keep hearing the most amazing things about him so I'm very excited to finally get to see him. So many amazing manipulators, seriously, it's like Christmas is going to come twice next year.

i dont believe there's any camping available on site, correct me if im wrong... however, with as many melbournites attending as there are, im sure there shouldnt be any problem with finding a couch to crash smile

Talking about which, I'm going to need one !


... Ok it's a weird introduction. confused2


Hi ! I'm Simon, from France, from Paris, from the BCC, playing double staff, playing fire breathing, and... well that's me.
Hard to believe I never registered there for all this time, bur I guess spamming forums is our own Kooothor's speciality... I met some of you in France (UberParis and BC Conv') or elsewhere in Europe this summer... wink

Well, great thing is I will be getting out of there in January, coming to Oz for a good 6 months, and landing in Melbourne... the 14th ! What a surpriiiise ! grin

So that's it, I have absolutely no plans yet for my first month here (but I'm okay with "freestyling"), so I'd be glad to have a place to land for the festival, as I'll be arriving right before it...


See you there ! devil

I´m Janika, Fire performer from Finland. I play mostly poi, but
I have bunch of different toys to play with. Also I like to mix
different dance styles to juggling.
I live in Japan now.
Poi community in Tokyo is my fire community at the moment.
I´m coming to Spin Festival and I will arrive
to Melbourne on 7th of Jan.
I would very much appreciate if someone would have some space in their house for me from 7th to 14th of Jan. before the festival.
Would there be some happy kind people to help me?
I´m coming by myself.
I´m also interested to make fire performance together for the competition to Spin Festival with fellow manipulators.


See ya guys soon!
