Posted: Hello there...
You must be searching for fire dancers, spinners, object manipulators, drummers, musicians and anyone else interested in these arts in Ireland!
Hellos and welcome
We have a small community here, but it's growing very fast and there are people spinning stuff right across the country.
If you're new to the arts, or want to meet up with any of us, please post on the [Old link] to introduce yourself... or send me a PM with your email address and I'll add your name to our mailing list.
There are spinners, dancers and manipulators all over the country, and you'll find lots of them on here...
So welcome, and hope to see you soon
