While there are other places that
offer classes which cost less money, the classes are not focused
on the same results.
Temple of Poi classes offer a comprehensive understanding of
the structure of poi to empower each artist to teach themselves
new moves both in and out of the classroom. Our classes go beyond
teaching moves by teaching artists higher level concepts that
can be applied in a variety of ways.
At the same time, while we are training students how to move
their poi and body, we are also training students how to use their
mind to create a mentality that encourages fun in the learning
process -- not just with poi, but in life.
Our approach is a holistic one as we coach artists toward their
center. Our classes facilitate student's gaining a deeper understanding
of the connection between their body, mind and spirit by creating
a safe, judgment free, positive environment designed to encourage
growth and development.
The value of the class in dramatically increased as a result
of our overall approach to teaching.
| Aren't
all Temple of Poi Classes indoor in small studios? |

Except for our fire classes, Temple
of Poi classes are indoors in mirrored studios. Our class sizes
are intentionally small to maximize the value of the classes and
ensure each student gets individual attention from the instructor.
Students may attend a makeup class for an additional. Please
see our class policies
