Hey all, have been spinning Poi and Staff for a while now, not moved onto fire yet but would dearly love to try, I am still working on basic moves slowly going into the more advanced stuff. I'm going to be moving to Reaseheath College in Cheshire this September to study Zoo Management and would like to know if there are any groups or anything in the surrounding area.

Heya, I don't know what groups there are round Cheshire- we've got a few folks around from the area though..
Have you tried combining poi moves with one of them things you swing around for falcons? (forgot what they're called)

it's a chinese martial arts weapony thingie, you spin a weight on a piece of rope around various bits of your body, then spin it off which shoots it out towards something
Could probably be better explained though

ahh but you do not shoot the lure, its a training tool used to teach the bird to lunge so you spin it keeping hold and the bird dives at you. its also almost always done verticaly if i remember, not so many fancy tricks when the bird could do your eyes in if it misses.
