Poi spinning is an amazing hobby, performance art or just a way to exercise, improve your co-ordination and train your body and mind! Poi spinning and twirling is a form of juggling, it's an object manipulation usually done with balls or weights on string.
They are held in the hands and swung in various circular patterns. There are many different types of poi, the most popular ones are the fabric poi that are made from a weight attached on a string and have long tails at the end.
Other popular types of poi are the fire Poi, glow/LED Poi and sock Poi .
Poi Spinners and performers use brightly coloured poi to create a number of beautiful patterns in the air and once they have mastered the skills in practice poi spinning they move on to glow and fire poi spinning.
REMEMBER! Master your skills with a practice poi before you attempt to play with fire poi!
