Poi
Spinning with Nadia
Nadia,
a student
of Memphis Raqs, is an accomplished poi spinner and
will be sharing her talents with us in a poi
workshop. Poi spinners improve
their coordination, and upper body strength while
developing dexterity in beautiful geometric
patterns.
Poi,
meaning 'ball' in Maori, is an ancient art
form developed in New Zealand. Generally, a ball
suspended on a cord is swung in rhythmic patterns
around the body in a combination martial arts/dance
form. Poi and fire-spinning have made their way into
the bellydance world in recent years by
incorporating the beautiful patterns with serpentine
tribal movements.
*This
workshop is a continuation of the basics, so
students should already know the basics on spinning
poi before taking this workshop*
