Beginners Spin Poi class at Kilbirnie Community Centre starts this week

Deb from Kilbirnie

Playing with poi is a lot of fun! SpinPoi can be done sitting or standing and is suitable for almost everyone. Inspired by traditional poi, it has been adapted by Dr Kate Riegle van West to be a safe and effective exercise, especially for older populations. On top of the usual benefits of exercise, typically people will see improvements in grip strength, attention, focus, balance and coordination. For more information on SpinPoi, and to see people playing with poi, go to www.spinpoi.com...

I am Wellington's first certified SpinPoi instructor. I have been taking a class on Zoom on Wednesday afternoons, and am thrilled to announce a live class starts this week.

Day: Thursdays, starting 22nd October
Time: Arrive between 4.45 and 4.55 for a 5pm start
Venue: Kilbirnie Community Centre hall
Cost: Koha

The class is suitable for beginners to intermediate. It will be 45 minutes long and we cover:
o Welcome, safety reminders and warm up
o Practice of basic poi movements
o In later sessions, we will start trying some more advanced movements
o Playtime! 20-25 minutes of poi to music
o Cool down

You don't need to book, and can just turn up. But if you want more information, either reply here or message me.

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
