DSC00340.JPGJeremy at La Escuela Del Sol has invited me to lead poi retreats at their poi/surfing/yoga school in Montezuma, Costa Rica! The January retreats have sold out, so we're planning one more for March 1-7th!

Flights are pretty cheap from many parts of the USA (and even Europe) if you look for them via sidestep.com or Vayama.com. You will fly into the Juan Santamaria International Airport, in San Jose (airport code SJO).

Adventures in Poi: Moves

Adventures in Poi on DVD
It's here! The new DVD, Adventures in Poi: Moves, is officially finished and available on filmbaby.com (basically DIRECT FROM US!), homeofpoi.com, and flowtoys.com!

We started working on this DVD 17 months ago, and it was the most epic, gut-wrenching, and life-changing project I've ever been part of... And now it's done! And it's good! Did I mention that I'm excited!?

Over two hours of intermediate and advanced poi lessons and travel shenanigans, along with the best fire dance that I've ever captured on video. I'm so excited I don't know what to write. BUY IT! BUY IT! If you buy it then I can buy a video camera, and produce all those other videos I've written!

Big thanks to Jaguar Mary, Alex, Marc, Tarun, Ivan, George and the good people at homeofpoi.com, Sam at feuershow.de, Sean and Prisna at Flowtoys, to all of you, and everybody else who was part of making the DVD come to life! I love you!!!!

One-piece cone-poi available on HoP!

Homeofpoi has launched their one-piece cone poi!

This is a great moment in poi history. The design was a collaboration between homeofpoi and myself, based loosely on a pair of sock-poi I got from Drew (of ministryofmanipulation.com). They are much like the poi I often use in my videos, but with a different (and hopefully better) method of inserting and removing the weight. They are super comfortable and pretty much tangle free. This is the kind of cone poi the world needs! So order a pair and tell me what you think. (Note: I do not recommend the cone-poi with the swivels, as I think they are too clunky.)

Oh, and I now have "playpoi" as my referral code at homeofpoi. If you use it when you buy something, I get a percentage. This is good, as it will help me justify spending more time making poi videos! :)
