Playing with poi is a lot of fun! Spin Poi can be done sitting or standing and is suitable for almost everyone. Inspired by traditional poi, it has been adapted by Dr Kate Riegle van West to be a safe and effective exercise, especially for older populations. On top of the usual benefits of exercise, typically people will see improvements in grip strength, attention, focus, balance and coordination.
No need to book. Poi provided. Or there some new sets available for sale if you want your own personal set. The class is suitable for beginners to intermediate. It will be 45 minutes long and we cover:
o Welcome, safety reminders and warm up
o Practice poi movements
o Playtime! 20-25 minutes of poi to music
o Cool down
If you're interested, but can't make it to any of these, contact me for information on Zoom classes, every Wednesday at 2pm, or what might be coming up next year.
