We discriminate against no-one. Except maybe those who are anti fire twirling. Certainly come down.

Hi guys, One day I hope to make the Sunday night meet up, promise  But at the moment I have a small problem , so I'm just going to sneak this in here. It's a long shot, but I was wondering if anyone was looking for a room to rent in Ringwood. We had someone lined up to move in, but they piked at the last minuet and the person leaving does not relish the idea of paying two lots of rent. Just PM me or email Thanks Frank

chrisday, www.juggleart.com is prolly ur best choice in melbourne. if u want u can just go to hippy shops or even under the swanston street bridge on sundays at that market. for watching, learinin and participating, this session and the edinburgh gardens sessions are the best. i see you've already had a look round both of the forums so come along, everyones friendly so dont be shy. hope to see you soon byebye

Dont buy poi stuff from Juggleart. They only sell wire poi, and frankly I wouldn't use it. Buy poi from here, Home of Poi. The products are good, and the shipping is relatively cheap and certainly quick. The best value is the cathedral head with ball chain poi. Sorry I couldn't make it to Sunday night, I got called into work.
Edinburgh is a good night for showing off, Sundays at Alexandra gardens is a better night for learning. (Better lit, starts earlier.)
***About this weekend*** This weekend is the St Kilda festival, so a few of us are meeting down there Sunday arvo. At the moment it will be 7pm, down at the grassed area near St Kilda baths. Everyone is welcome to join us.

from personal experience, or at least accordin to me, the chain poi from under swanston st bridge on sundays are grouse cos they have nice fat heavy wicks so u can go a bit slower. handy. but once again, whatever u like. go round to shops, ask to have a go, or just go to a gathering and ask. hope to see many on sunday, im gonna try doin a bit o my fire eating which ive been learnin for a few months but havent yet tried at a gathering. could be interesting. bye all  ------------------ foomp

wire, chain and ballchain have their fans and non-believers. best to trust your own experience and ask for a test spin if it's possible at these melbourne fire-thingy-meets
