Our Mission & Vision

We want people to get acquainted with and be inspired by the world of flow-arts. We want to give our customers a good example of what you can achieve with your flow-art tool. People familiar with flow-art and newcomers in this playground.

Our vision is to give people as much pleasure as possible in playing their flow-art tools. We want it to be in your possession for a long time, so you get more acquainted with the tool. For example you can replace the Kevlar on your fire poi yearly instead of buying a whole new set.

'Many people see and feel it as a kind of meditation. Open your mind and see what is beyond!'

Once you start playing with one of the many flow-art tools, you notice that a new area in your mind will open up. This allows you to connect with your inner self and it leads to total control over your body movements. Body and soul are at peace.

A little bit about the history of Poi:

Poi were created in the 15th century when the Maori made carrier sacks out of flax (a kiizak) for carrying a moa-egg. During the years they put stones in it instead, to train for battle by swinging them round. It became an important ritual as well, they performed a dance with the “Poi”, during the ritual it is very important to swing with the “Poi”. When the moa-bird became extinct, they didn't need the carrier sacks for eggs any more, because no other bird lays such big eggs, but they were still used for practice. They started to make the sacks and ropes longer, and put balls in the carrier sacks. During the centuries the "Poi" evolved to the revolutionary Poi products and tools that we have nowadays. So individuals like us can get inspired by poi!

Nowadays “Poi” is indispensable for many cultures and subcultures, with whom we live on this planet. But years pass by and with new modern technologies the poi evolved to all kinds of poi and especially the LED poi! For the ultimate challenge and magnificent performance there is the Monkey fist fire poi for the advanced poi spinners.

Find yourself trough the flow!
