What Is Fire Poi?
A fire poi is a juggling prop designed specifically for stunning fire performances. It consists of a pair of chains or cords with flammable heads, usually made of Kevlar, attached to the ends. These heads are soaked in fuel and ignited to create spectacular visual effects. As the poi are swung, they form mesmerizing circles and fire patterns that captivate any audience.
How Is Fire Poi Used?
Fire poi are brought to life through rhythmic swinging, spinning, and tossing, forming a variety of patterns and effects. The movements are often synchronized with music, adding even more impact to the show. It’s essential to practice thoroughly in advance, ideally using non-flammable training poi, to develop proper technique and control. Protective clothing and a safe environment are crucial for minimizing risk during fire performances.
Are Fire Poi Suitable for Beginners?
Yes, to some extent – fire poi can be suitable for beginners, but only if they have already mastered basic poi techniques. It is strongly recommended to start with practice poi before transitioning to fire poi. For newcomers, we suggest the Juggle Dream Fire Poi, specially designed for beginners. It features a well-balanced design and good burn time, offering a safe introduction to the thrilling world of fire juggling.
Which Fuel Should Be Used for Fire Poi?
There are several fuel options for fire poi, each with its pros and cons:
- Kerosene: The best choice for most, producing a steady and controllable flame. It’s relatively safe and easy to handle.
- Clear, odorless lamp oil: A good alternative to kerosene, especially for indoor use, as it emits less odor.
- Paraffin (Petroleum): Burns brighter and longer than kerosene or lamp oil but produces more soot. Ideal for outdoor use when a strong flame is desired.
Burn time depends on the size of the poi:
Small poi burn for about 2–3 minutes, medium poi for 3–5 minutes, and large poi can burn for up to 15 minutes.
