Why the Flow Arts are Awesome by the Teafaerie When people ask me what I do, I tell them that I teach Flow Arts. That's much is easy. The hard part comes about three seconds later, when my well intentioned interlocutor inevitably insist that I define my terms. What is Flow Arts? It's a question that has been posed to me countless times. As one of the co-founders of Flow Temple (along with Burning dan), I'm often asked to explain why so many fully grown adults suddenly seem to be rediscovering the magic of playing with a certain class of toys. The answer turns out to be complex and involved, but it's ultimately intuitive at the core. Which is actually a fairly decent description of Flow Arts itself, now that I come to think about it.

The level of technical difficulty is high, and the level of artistic creativity meets it. It's a great mix of juggling, contact and club swinging techniques. I really love seeing routines/footage that blends these different modes of manipulation. This is also good videomaking. The performer goes by Dodo.

I was blown away by the routine Cyrille presented at the very first Flow Show (which he does not want posted). The time he has put into developing this mode of poi manipulation is quite evident in this vid! MrSyQMRfe7g |
