Descriptions:
Last part of our pendulum workshop at Stromboli. Pendulums work as a transition between different elements – particularly between timings. Transitioning between, for example, water and earth (same direction split-time and same direction simultaneously) is often tricky and a bit lame when done just like that.
You can find all the info here if you’re curious about the Stromboli Poi Retreat.

Ronan McLoughlin
Ronan is acknowledged as the innovator of ‘contact poi’ – a form of poi that involves a ball on string connected by a rope to a counterweight that can not only be spun like classic poi designs but also encourages throwing and rolling in different ways around the body. This innovation has opened up the whole art form’s possibilities and this type of poi has now become the standardised poi all over the world.
