Poi Courses 2011- London


 

Perfect Circle Poi runs Beginners and Intermediate Poi Spinning Courses and Fire Dancing Performance and Choreography Courses in London -together with Private Spinning Lessons, Group Workshops, Performances and Shows for Corporate and Private Functions and Poi in the Park Jam Sessions

At Perfect Circle Poi we believe spinning is a fun, creative, visually exciting and sociable activity which brings people together from all ages and walks of life.

Our Beginners, Intermediate and Fire Dancing Performance and Choreography Poi Spinning Courses are designed to ensure that our students learn in a relaxed, fun and friendly environment and participants are given all the support they need to become accomplished spinners. Our tutors are experienced spinners and teachers and are dedicated to helping students maximise their potential by breaking down each move simply and easily.

We encourage our students to practise the tricks and moves they have learnt in our classes in their spare time, so that time spent in our sessions is maximised. To support this, we organise free Poi in the Park Jam Sessions around London in easily accessible locations for our students, to ensure everyone has the opportunity to practise their spinning techniques together with their peers and friends.

We encourage students to be creative, invent their own moves and develop their own unique spinning style and flair, particularly in our Private Poi Spinning/Fire Dancing Private Lessons.

Our Workshops are fun, dynamic and intensive and are designed to be creative, interactive and team building. They are tailored to suit the event, Skill level/Age of the participants and individual requirements of the organisers and can be performed at either indoor or outdoor events.

Our Shows and Performances are highly visual, exciting and dynamic and fuse Circus skills with Dance and Poi Spinning, choreographed to high energy sounds from tribal beats to funky dance music.

We love spinning and hope our enthusiasm and joy of this beautiful art form is contagious!

 As places on the Course are limited, booking and pre-payment is essential – For details please email us at perfectcirclepoi@gmail.com or call 075132 56360

Middle Eastern drum group sessions


Hello, hope you all had a great summer time!

I am planning to organise a beg/intermediate frame drum lesson a week as well as a darbuka lesson a week from 27th Sept for 12 weeks.

Monday (frame drum) and Wednesday (darbuka) evenings (6:30-8pm). If you think these days are not good for you
I could try and arrange something for Tuesday eve or Saturday in the mornings (11-12:30 and 1:30- 3pm) also but this last one is still tricky for me.

Fees for each would cost £145 for the whole 12 weeks if you pay it up front or £90 or 6 weeks.

Lessons will include warm ups and body percussion to enhance body awareness, sense of timing, rhythm and co-ordination. We will also listen to lots of
Middle Eastern and Balkan music and eventually try to learn to play the rhythms of some tunes. Lots of calls and response in group activities and improvisation are going to be encouraged through out the sessions.

You would need to bring your own instrument. If you don’t have it let me know and we arrange something for you. I only have a limited
amount of drums. If you want to learn to play the Riq (Arabic tambourine), you would have to find one online cos it’s very difficult to find it in a shop in London.

Hope to hear from you soon so i can have a better notion of who can come and when, etc,

Bests,

Elizabeth

Raqs Britannia 2009 with the Bellydance Superstars


This year’s Raqs Britannia will take place in Blackpool from June 5th to 7th 2009.

As every year, the Bellydance Superstars will treat us with amazing choreographies and costumes to make all of us dream…

The Superstars will perform on the evening of the Saturday, but for anyone who can take a day off work, it’s worth catching an early train on the Friday for more workshops and the Friday night show.

For those who would like to see the dream become reality, don’t forget to register for the auditions which will take place on the Sunday afternoon.

Can’t wait to go!!

but what workshops to choose?  raqs britannia forum
