More from PeachesWolfiez
I made these to sell at FWA, and I'll hopefully get some time to do a demonstration. I love poi, and I think it would be good to make it available to others who might have fun with it too. I hope to offer more types of poi at a later time, but right now, I'm trying to build an interest.

"Poi" is the Maori word for "ball" on a cord. Poi is a form of juggling where the balls are swung around the body. The word "Poi" is both plural and singular. (I have one Poi, he has two Poi).
From it's beginnings Poi had the purpose of enhancing dance and rhythm. It was soon realised that Poi swinging had several other benefits from wrist strength, flexability and improving co-ordination to name a few. Mastering simple Poi moves can quickly improve self-esteem and gain respect from others. Hence the reason it quickly becomes addictive. And like all performance arts you are only limited by your imagination.
