To the site and to poi. smile



I'm 33 (egads...am I really that old?? ubbloco) and live in Federal Way, WA (for those out of towners, that's about 20 miles south of Seattle), live with my partner and two kiddos. I went to Burning Man for the first time this last summer and saw my first fire dancing...needless to say I am totally hooked (to poi and BM!)!!



I just bought my first pair of practice poi. I am hoping to meet more people here, maybe even someone in my area. I was on the flag team in hs, so many of the movements feel similar, even if I'm a bit rusty. rolleyes



So, a bit of a ramble, but really cool site...

My state of mind is not yours to define!

There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

What is psychology?- Looking for a black cat in a dark room. What is psychoanalysis? Psychoanalysis is looking for a black cat in a dark room -- in which there is no cat -- but finding one anyway.
