Damn I have to give big Kudos to this site, I never encountered poi before I saw a video of a guy with glowsticks attached to his chains at a rave, and I was instantly in love.. I went on a search online for this strange contraption and found this site.After reading a bit on this site yesterday I proceeded to make a "newbie poi" with old shoelaces and some old socks, and started the tutorials.The superb tutorials on this site have taught me to do everything up to the weave/chase in just a couple of hours of practicing. I have to say the tutorials and explainations on this site are really good.Thanks HomeOfPoi

Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear--not absence of fear.

grande kudos!its good to acknowlege such a great site as this, last night i was pondering such thoughts also as i was sitting down and drawing fire designs. i have been especially inspired by fire recently, if you were to take a look at the margins of my notes you'd seem them covered with little poi people doodles. spinning is such a medatative sensation for me, my conscious mind takes a backseat and i just let my body move and simply savor the senasation of the momment. poi and fire are such wonderfully fun toys to play with, it even cooler to have an open forum like this site were fire folks all over the world can share ideas, questions, and knowledge of fire. its good to feel connected to the thousands of other fire folks out there who can relate to the art of spinning. thanks once again HOP for having such a great site!
