Hunter is a Bay Area flow artist who has been spinning staff since Fall of 2004, working primarily with a long staff. He says it was something inate in him that lead him to pick up staff, and now it is something inate in him that comes out when he spins.

His journey studying staff has evolved to a form of self-expression. He doesn't practice learning tricks, but instead strives to achieve greater freedom of mobility, intigrating how he moves with the natural movements of the staff as a dance. He is at place where sometimes his body is leading the dance, and other times the staff is showing him new ways to move.

Traces of Hunter's background in tai-chi and urban dance can be seen in his spinning style. He says he believes that when it comes to spinning, everyone has their own unique style; that after aquiring the basic skills, spinning staff becomes an expression of the individual as well as a vehicle for sefl discovery.

Hunter's inspiration for spinning contniues to introduce him to new experiences: most recently as an emerging Bay Area fire-performer, and now as a new instructor for the Temple of Poi.
