"The little trick of getting three objects to dance around in your hands has always managed to keep a small sense of magic...It's one form of insanity we feel everyone has a right to experience."

TRAINING
Poi Classes with Claire de Luxe Dec 5-Feb 21
Posted November 22, 2011
Winter is the time to really focus in on our arts. For poi, it's time to hone our skills and work on technique so that when the warm weather comes, we have new skills to take to the park, the beach, and outdoors for fire! Join us for a very special hour and a half each week where you can "turn off your brain" and dive into the zone within poi flow.
Poi with Claire De Luxe
Winter poi sessions will be starting Dec 5th and 6th. This season offers Poi 2, Poi 4, Poi 5, and Intermediate Poi. All classes are 10-week sessions, and because of cold February temperatures, the last class will be a studio class (no fire class).
Poi 1
Beginning Poi returns in the spring! The time slot will be Mondays from 6:30–8pm, so mark your calendars.
Poi 2
We will continue to build on our movement vocabulary and begin to link our base moves into short sequences and choreography, while learning new techniques and getting more comfortable moving our feet while spinning too.
Poi 3
Poi 3 returns in the spring, please contact me about what level is right for you!
Poi 4
We will start learning the basics of flowers, and we will continue to develop and build extensive system of transitioning abilities so that adding new moves becomes an easy integration. We will explore personal approaches and adding style, while also adding broadening our ability to put the poi wherever we want around the body.
Poi 5
This class builds on our flower technique, takes a closer look at timing and direction, and lays groundwork for an ever-expanding grid of poi placement. We will also continue working on stalls, turns, and developing effortless transitions while of course adding new tricks into the mix.
Intermediate Poi
The flow continues! Poi is a never-ending set of combinations and collaborations between your body and the sphere. This time around we are going to backtrack a little into more familiar territory in order to really look at transitions, although we probably won't be able to escape without a few new techniques or moves. This class is appropriate for those who are familiar with basic poi vocabulary and can learn new poi moves with relative ease.
Looking forward to spinning with you!
