Learn to Fire Dance with Poi - in San Francisco!
Fire Arts Collective
San Francisco! Classes will be starting May 18th in the Glen Park
area, just 4 blocks from the Glen Park BART station. Plenty of street
parking is available nearby. Classes available on Fridays and Sundays.
Intermediate and advanced poi and staff classes are available in
Oakland. Weekend workshops will be coming this summer.
It's only $90 for our group 4-week poi class, which consists of four
one-hour lessons. The last lesson will be on fire! Sign up for two
sessions for only $160 - that's just $20 per lesson!
A syllabus / study guide will be provided at the beginning of class
for the students to take home and use to practice with. The class
space is limited and spaces are filling up quickly, so register soon.
We have packed one year of spinning experience and knowledge into two
of the 4-week classes, which we amazingly can pass to you in eight
lessons. Many simple drills will improve your spinning quickly. The
first three classes teach the students a variety of moves, around 15
total, and techniques as they progress in skill level. The fourth
class teaches the students fire safety and how to apply what they have
learned to actual fire spinning, if the students feel they are ready.
Everything is done according to personal comfort level. Fuel, safety,
and fire poi provided for the fourth lesson, as needed.
Beginning Poi covers the basic moves: Butterfly (in most forms),
Weave, Corkscrew, Windmill and many others.

Here is what some past and present students are saying about Fire Arts
Academy:
"Much funnier than yoga, but with the same sort of rewarding head
space! I thoroughly enjoyed learning how to spin Zuni's, and
ultimately
FIRE, with Jon from Fire Arts Collective. Always known as the
graceless
wonder in my family, I was finally able to awe my folks, though they
are surely afraid I've run off and joined the circus! Jon's teaching
method is adept and kind and encourages quick advancement, and we
laughed our heads off while actually getting better -- learning + fun
-- you can't beat that!" --- Kelly DeMartini
"I had no idea spinning fire would be so fun and become such a part of
me. Jon is patient, insightful and encouraging, accepting my tangled
fumblings with easy humor and working with me until I mastered each
step. I look forward to taking many other classes with the Collective.
Thank you, Jon!" --- Joe
