Hello hello!
We've been quite busy lately doing our thing here in Melkbos and Cape Town area! Roxanne, Claude (Roxy's Grandpa), and I are in the midst of creating our own dance and fire poi products! We, with the help of Villiam (Claude's step-son), came up with a name "Gooi the Poi". "Gooi" pronounced (Hhor, roll the H) means 'throw' in Afrikaans, so throw or 'Gooi the Poi' and it rhymes! We have created practice poi with exchangable ribbons, flags, or LED lights. We have also created our own fire poi out of 100% kevlar (the fire-resistant material). It has been quite the interesting adventure gathering materials, meeting locals, and using our own unique creativity.
Back in April, in Athens, GA while attending Awakening Church. Jessica Gay (co-leader) had a word for me during a prophecy session. She wrote down "Tinkerbell". When she explained it to me, it was not only in the fairy interpretation, but more in the sense that she saw me 'tinkering', using my hands to make things and to create. I am absolutely connecting with this creativity through making poi, sewing, tending to the garden, and cooking. I do enjoy using my hands to create goodness and to share love.
We will be attending Earthdance music & arts festival in Worcester, South Africa this weekend! Roxy, Claude, and I are packing up his bright orange vintage Colt, complete with drums, guitar, tent, handmade poi, and vegan granola bars! Life is good :)
Many blessings and lots of love to you, lizzy
