Hey Guys... I'm a twirler wanna be! Picked up a few basic moves while travelling and am very keen to learn some more. Its a bit hard for me to get to Edinburgh Gardens, I'm trying to figure out the go with the St Kilda thing. Does anybody know when every second Saturday is?
Be well!

An intro? What to say?
26 year old male.
Been in Melbourne for around 6 months, laying pretty low. Before this was doing the obligatory working\holiday thing in Europe... lived and worked in London for 8 months. Spent some time travelling through Europe... but I was travelling through Thailand when I stumbled across my first poi... it was love at first sight. Now here I am looking for some mentors...
Will try and do the Edinburgh Gardens, just have to try and work it around work.

indoors classes
pamplets are available @ Juggleart. We attend the monday classes most weeks, cus it's a nice way to meet other twirlers and see what many trix and styles people have every week... No fire, just unlit indoors practice. For the pyro urge, yeah the last few Wednesday nights usually start after 9pm when it doesn't rain.
