Description Taken last night on Clifton Beach, Cape Town...

I'm so sorry I forgot my poi at home. And my tripod. But nonetheless it was an amazing evening. One of many many many shots to come.

Yep, it's a variation of firepoi using methylated spirits and steel wool which disintergrates and flies everywhere. Not the safest of poi techniques, but certainly eye-catching.

That's a photo, as is...

Oh, I wish you could see this live... it's so spectacular. Have you never seen firepoi dancing? Do yourself a favour and look it up online. It's one of the best things I've done in a long long time other than my sword and quarterstaff training.

This link - [link] - is a more sedate version of the same idea, except no trailing sparks. I did it in my front yard. That photo however was on a beach. People get together in the evenings in summer, form a circle of candles and flames and whoever wants to dance, justs gets up and does their thing to the sound of the drums.
