Poi-juggeling
Poi(ball) was played already about 1000 years ago by the Maoris, the native inhabitants of New Zeeland, where the game originally comes from. The poi is made up of two loops of the same length with a weight on each end. They are spun in different moves around the body. Nowadays, it is a popular leisure activity that helps to balance spirit, body and soul. The moves with the poi train the body in a soft way. The ability to concentrate will improve. The coordination of both hands and the eye-hand-coordination will be supported and the connection between both brain hemispheres will be promoted.
As the left and the right part of the body work permanently together when playing poi, the feeling of the rhythm, the visual perception, the move of the body and the creativity will be combined in an ideal manner.
Just now in the computer era, the poi game is an ideal balance, which can be practiced at home as well as in the garden, the nature or during the holidays.
In our workshop, we will begin with building our own experience-pois and learning the basic moves. The first successes will appear very fast and create the “want” for more.
Including: Leader, material to build the poi, different experience-pois to try it out, soft drinks & snacks
