For those coming to the EJC: We're teaming up with Sam of poifriends.com to offer the entire beginner series as an 18 station "golf course." Each station will teach a simple move or a small group of skills. We'll run the course for 5 days. Each day people can start where they finished the day before.
The station will run from 4-5pm each day from Monday to Thursday. We need at least 18 volunteers each day. The top priority is people who can commit to all 5 days. We would love to have two or more teachers at each station, so there is room for many more teachers than that. If we get enough volunteers we can keep the course open longer.
If you're coming to the EJC and you like teaching poi, reply to this email now! We'll be easy to find at the EJC. Just look for the sign-up sheet at the workshop schedule or visit the Feuershow.de booth.
