Fire dancing is a highly visual performance art in which you create beautiful patterns of circles around your body. These circles are created by trails of fire or fabric, attached to chains or staffs which you spin in stunning, complex patterns as you dance.
Contempoary Fire Dancing has its roots in the traditional "poi" spinning of the Maori culture of New Zealand, but it's also been influenced by modern dance, staff spinning, club swinging, theatrical swordplay and even flaming bullwhips and jump ropes.
We are Firedance Productions, the largest rhythmic fire and light performance group in Canada. We can bring a truly enchanting and thrilling experience to any event. Your senses will be dazzled as we dance with spinning fire to the tribal beats of live drummers or to edgy urban electronic music. Open flame not an option? No Problem. We also offer glow-in-the-dark and fluorescent streamer shows. Our skilled dancers will amaze with choreographed perfection and fantastic freestyle improvisations. Firedance Productions is committed to bringing you the best show possible. We can tailor our performances to fit any venue, big or small, indoor or outdoor, adding excitement and energy to your event.

We're hoping you'll display this little badge for us on your profile for ooodles of people to see. or better that you'll create a space at POI PEOPLE...
This is a new social network (a smaller myspace with profiles etc.)Just like at LTHf or She phoenix. It's hosted by 'NING' a trusted provider. 'Ning' means peace by the way...
At Poi people they're seeking to create awareness of autism and other social disabilities, green and community issues, linking these to the united voice of the the fire and performance arts, the music and film industry and you too...
When you arrive there, you'll first need to set up a profile of your own within ning (similar to myspace but less chaos he he") search networks for 'POI PEOPLE' and add your profile to it..
THAT'S IT...
