Hello!
I just got my first cobras and I am already obsessed! I can do a few things but I may have to meet up with the Guildford lot to learn some more!
Name: Ali
Location: Hampshire
Hometown: Originally from up North
DOB: Never you mind
Age: Oh Ok I'm 26
Sex: Female
Occupation(s): Dance Teacher
Favorite Food(s): Mexican food and Vegetarian options (not quorn tho yuck)
Favorite Color(s): blue
Toys: poi
Hobbies other than the obvious: Break dancing, making things like beaded jewlery, learning new things
Education: Educated to degree level in dance
Favorite Book(s): I am a real book worm so this is a difficult one, I love Terry Pratchett and the discworld series and I enjoy fantasy novels but at the mo I am quite enjoying John Grisham books.
Favorite Movie(s): The matrix, School of rock, Show girls (for the dancing) loads more
Favorite TV show(s): I don't really watch it but I do like a good comedy e.g. Scrubs or Will and Grace (or should I say Jack and Karen) Oooh I like 24 too
Plans for life in general: (i.e. what you want to do when you grow up): I am grown upish!!! I have my lovely house, husband, dog and I run my own business life is good
Favorite Music Artists/Composers: I am a huge fan of Nightwish at the moment but my all time favourite band is the Divine Comedy
Favorie ice cream flavor(s): Chocolate
After years doing crappy jobs, I am finally realising my dream of having my own dance school but as the hobby is now my career I have taken up poi to fill that void. I live to learn and I am always trying new things.
My Mum always says to me "Enjoy Life" and that is what I intend to do
Nice to meet you,
Ali

Yeay I can't wait
Next week I am meeting up with a guy who can propper spin and hopefully I can learn some more.
The way i am learning is
1. Try a new move
2. It hits me in the head a lot
3. Keep trying despite bruises
4. Yay I have mastered a new move

No sock Poi yet.
I can't get any more yet cause I already own to sets! I ordered some off e-bay and they took a month to come so in my impacience ( I can't spell that word and the spell checker didn't work) I went and bought some!
I will take your advice tho and when I have spare pennys I may give it a whirl (Scuse the pun!)
