Posted: Hi there,
Yannick and I discovered a magical place in the woods, very close to where I used to live. One could expect to see little fairies and gnomes running around. Very inspiring! The FairyWings are amazing. So smooth for spinning and I hardly tangle up with them.
In the video: FairyWings from Germany

Posted: We went to shoot a few fire toys in front of the Castle of Delémont... but didn't think about the fact that it was Saturday night and lots of drunk people around! We managed to have fun anyway Yannick still decided about his "artistic editing", but this time we tried to show a bit more technique.

Posted: This is my trailer for an event 4 times a year. People get on the boat (a beautiful solar catamaran), have dinner, get off at some point on the way back and there I make the fireshow. It's really special to wait for the audience on shore

Posted: Last year we spent a beautiful day out on the St. Peters Island on the Lake of Biel (Switzerland). We felt like going on a big trip: loaded with fire & camera equipment, pick nick, photo camera for the day and even wood for the camp fire at night. Loved it!
And that's what came out of it. You might not notice....but the water was freezing my feet off! (why are swans not bothered with this kind of little details?!?)

Posted: And this is our newest "baby"! We've discovered an amazing "playground" for fire dancing and filming We tried to film fireworks for the first time, Yannick could try out his new Pocket Dolly (glider for the camera) and we finally found a great location to have reflections in the water! We were absolutely thrilled and spent nearly 4 hours there Hope you like it as much as we loved to make it!
In the video: Single poi, single staff, double staff, "sparkling staff", fireworks

Posted: No good preparation for this show and we never tried out the LED staffs and poi with the laser show before the night of the show. But it was still good fun, dancing in the middle of a laser show and the audience seemed to like it!
Yannick didn't want to use his big camera cos there was a risk for the lasers to break it. So he only used his "stunt camera" as a souvenir.

Thank you
@all
Our 2 latest videos:
- Testing the new Sony NEX-5n. A compact camera with interchangeable lenses. Fantastic results for such a small camera! Having good quality doesn't mean "unpayable" anymore!
Bright Eyes, First test with Sony NEX-5n low light capabilities
-Yannicks Showreel 2011. It's the first time that his passion of flight and firedance show in one video. It was a real pleasure to see this year bringing us so many fantastic opportunities and I believe it's due to Yannicks passion, his hard work, his perfectionism, his respect for others. I'm honoured and touched to be part of it. His magical videos are the reflection of his beautiful being!

Enjoy watching what this year has brought to us Fran

Posted: Hi there
It's been a while since our last video and we haven't been very active on fire videos (too many other fun plans).
But here's the Firedancing.ch, The Highlights 2011 video that sums up all the good times we had making videos in 2011!
And after over 2 years of watching Yannick filming and editing, I tried it out myself for the first time and made a video of Nick Woolsey's Poi & Yoga Retreat Switzerland!
Here is my fire dancing promo video :) I hope you like it :) [url=
