Ooooh no! Someone dropped the NS bomb! *dances* Dunno about the Scallop Days Festival - Sounds like something up in Digby *snorts* I'm a city dweller... Buut Halifax has it's International Busker Festival at the beginning of August each year!!! It's a week and a half of international street entertainers with incredibly large ranges of talents. It's definately something worth checking out. Though it's hard-ish to get into the festival to perform, you need to send in an application and a video and pics and whatnot... but here's the website to give you a taste: https://www.buskers.ca/
Have you any questions about good 'ol Nova Scotia, do feel free to PM me and I will do my honest best to help you out
Written by: FireNix
I have also had a 'bite' from Scallop days Festy in Nova Scotia middle of August - anyone been to that?
If you can offer advice, lifts or some place to stay around any of these places it would be most welcome
Thanks in advance

Hello there, Sassy informs me from my thread that this is the place to be if you want to be swamped by people from Calgary among other areas, I'm planning on heading up that way around Early to mid December if someone would like to show me the sites
If anyone wants to know what places just check me thread cos I can't be bummed posting it all again
Also anyone that is going to lonely for Christmas and doesn't want to be drop me a line aswell, cos I would feel a bit ordinary just sitting in my hotel room peering into nothingness! :o

There's a chance me and Kim might be there, but I'm not going to make any deffinite plans, cos we're so bad at getting out to spinning meets on a sunday!
We actually have a routine that's part of an upcoming show, and we need space that's a bit bigger than our living room to practice it. We have to be at rehearsals at 9.00, but might come to the park to do a quick non-fire practice.

Lol I'm not sure.
I was at a spinning thing at the Oolong Tea House the other day, and I heard a few people talking about spinning meets that happen sundays and wednesdays. I'm not sure if the wednesday one is also Riley Park or somewhere else.
If I find out anything, I'll let you know.

Hey Mand how have you and spitfire been doing About the Sunday and wednesday meets. If its the same group that I know, yes we all meet those 2 days to spin. Sunday IS at Riley Park but Wednesday is at someones place in his backyard. I've told a few fire spinners from that group about you guys and how amazing you are with fire! If you have facebook or anyone with facebook that's reading this, search the group calgary fire flag ect poi spinners..... we have been keeping in touch regularly in there and I'm sure he'd love to meet you guys. The fire community in Calgary is getting bigger I love this There were so many fire spinners Sunday evening untill the cops showed up...thankfully that was just a noise disturbance call. Cheers, and hope to spin with you guys sometime soon!

I live in Maine at the moment. I'll be spending the rest of the calender year here, at which point I will be moving to Montreal. I'd really like to visit and do some performing, but I don't know a thing about where to perform, or any authorization, e.g. permits, that I may need. I'd also love to meet some fellow cirkus folk in Montreal so that my move won't be so lonely. I spin poi, mostly, but I'm working on some other stuff as well.

edmonton; you have a big street performance festival thing during the summer, don't you? I'd hit that, and just tackle anyone who spins, if they don't live in the area they may know people who do.

I just got into Halifax (ok, actually I admit it, I'm living in Dartmouth right now) in the middle of last August. I'm definitely looking for some spinning comrades in the HRM, you in? I'm usually free most weekends. Hell, even today would be good on the harbourside.

Oooohhh the Dirty-D!!! Haha, I lived in Halifax, but I moved for school.. There's not too much of a scene out there anymore, there used to be a small group of us, but people moved away, disappeared, etc... Sad times for sure.

Still searching for some poi people/meetups in Calgary. Tried Sundays at Reilly park but I always seem to either be working or the weather is a bust.

My fire spinning dies down to zero during the winter.
For practice poi, I'm thinking of hiring a dance studio for an hour a week during the winter, and seeing if anyone else wants to chip in for the cost. It'd be about $5-10 per practice.
My fire troupe hired it out last winter, and it's a great space. It wouldn't happen till after the new year though, cos I'll be in England till then.

I'm going to be in HRM till Wednesday. But I'll be making a grand return in September. There are poi fanatics in Nova Scotia. They're just few and far between, the winds keep blowing us away!
