Um...I'm pretty damn fantastic at being crap at poi though...But I do ok with a giant flaming cottonbud!

Central City Circus have a fire meet on tuesday nights after dark at Victoria Park.
(Paulie - 021 728 597)

Steve Keel has a daylight meet at Tahaki Reserve (bottom of Mt Eden) most Tuesdays and Wednesdays (Tuesdays sometimes relocates to Vic park after dark).
(021 132 6209)

There's a juggling club that meets on fridays at a school in Onehunga (Chris - 021 544 240).

Hows that for starters?

Thanks a lot for that, I will try and make it to Vic Park and possibly the workshop too.
Yay, people to spin with at last!

Doh... had a nice road trip all the way through Auckland, only to end up in Northcote and it being so late (we didn't leave Pukekohe til 9!) that we decided to head back. Anyway, decent directions into Victoria Park would be greatly appreciated!
Is there a particular place to meet? *thinks* probably easy to find a bunch of people spinning balls of fire around...

Vic park directions (going South on the southern motorway).

Take the Fanshaw St exit after going over the Harbour Bridge. Go straight ahead at the first set of lights.

The big giant grassy area on your right after the lights is Victoria park!

Turn right at the next set of lights, onto Halsey street, and the big grassy area on your right is STILL Victoria Park!

Turn right again at the next set of lights, onto (DUM DUM DUM) Victoria Street, with the big grassy ara on the right still being Victoria Park.

200m or so there will be a kids playground, park near that, and look for firey people further into the park.
