Fire Shows

I’ve been spinning fire since 2003, and I’ve done many fire shows, both by myself and with larger groups.

I regularly perform in the Israeli Juggling Convention’s Fire show as one of the top acts, as well as shows for private events.
Poi is my main prop, and I have a history of amazing crowds with it. I also use Contact Staff, Double Staves, and Fire Orb in my performances, all with a great fusion of clean, advanced technique, dance, martial arts, and theater.

Fire shows can be either one continuous show (great for corporate events or birthday parties) , or can be presented as short “breaks”, where separate routines are performed during a longer period of time (great for clubs and bars).
For festivals, juggling conventions and similiar events I perform my fire poi routine, my contact poi routine, and teach some of my workshops.

As I’m currently travelling, I have a lot of workshops and performances planned, so it’s best to contact me as far in advance as possible. Depending on where I currently am, group performances might be available. Prices vary depending on type of event, type of show, location, and amount of performers.

A few recent and not so recent videos I love.

First off, a video released today by Nick Woolsey, an amazing poi spinner and teacher, who’s been doing a few poi retreats in Bali and Costa Rica in the last few years. This video is from a retreat in Costa Rica –

Next, a pretty old video of my friend Mireneye from Sweden, performing at JFF2008 (Japan Fire Festival). I love this routine for combining a few things I love- Poi, Dance, and Irish Music -

Next, another old video, of a guy from Hungary named Jedy. I like his spinning a lot, he’s very creative -

Last but definitely not least, a great video of Thomas Johansson, also from Sweden, performing at KFF2009 (Kiev Fire Fest). This guy has definitely been one of my biggest inspirations over the last year or so. He’s the one who inspired me to work on my dancing seriously, and I love him for it -

Hello everyone, this post is going to be the first blog post I make for my website. Most of my website is business-oriented, but this blog is mainly made for other spinners.

So, what can you expect to find in this blog? Everything related to Poi, Fire spinning, Dance, and Circus Arts. That includes videos, articles, info about festivals and workshops, and anything else I think spinners around the world should know about.

I’ll end this post with a video of my Fire Poi routine, it’s changed in the past few weeks, but I’m still happy with this one:

Happy Spinning,

Poiboy.
