Courses run for 6 weeks and are priced at £75 (concs avail).

Exact directions to the venue are provided once you have booked a place.

The Beginners course will teach you about thirty basic moves and how to put them all together so that you can flow from one to the other. Starting at the very beginning with how to hold your poi, we swiftly go on to moves such as reels, tuck turns, the weave, the backwards weave, the windmill, the butterfly and the fountain. (If you can do all of these moves already contact me regarding the Intermediate course). We will also explore basic concepts such as turns, follow time, linking moves together, and opposite directions, allowing you to begin to invent and explore your own moves and style. The course culminates in a show, so we will also work on choreography and presentation. Expect to work hard but have a good laugh with the others!

Your teachers will be Monique Aislabe, Emma Aislabe and Kevin Shaw.

Monique is an established performer, and has been teaching poi for several years. Until recently ran her own courses in Camden Town. She has been extremely popular with students on the Apex poi courses, and is known for her warm, patient and intuitive style of teaching.

Emma has been spinning and performing in London and New Zealand for over 6 years. She has spent several years developing poi education programmes catering for schools and special needs groups. She is a patient, relaxed and fun poi teacher!

Kevin has been juggling for over 14 years and has been teaching and performing all over the world. He has taught several thousand students, both informally and at juggling workshops, and is generally acknowledged to be both a cutting edge spinner and an excellent teacher.
