Nay, whatever comes one hour was sunlit and the most high gods may not make boast of any better thing than to have watched that hour as it passed

Hello Tempest, welcome to HoP!
Hello Tempest, welcome to HoP!
My state of mind is not yours to define!
There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

Merry meet and merry depart, come and go with love in thy heart!! Welcome fellow Wiccan friend
I think its awesome you've started a troup! I have 1 friend here who spins poi and hoops (like me) and i wish there were more. As for nerves, I've never really had that problem. For some reason I have no stage fright with fire. Other things yes but I think I'm too absorbed by the firey balls of death I'm swinging around my head to worry about what the audience is thinking. That and just knowing that what I'm doing is impressive no matter what and that the audience members dont have the guts/skill to do what I do also gives me a little boost away from nerves.

If you can't stand the heat, get out of my way.
