Fire Safety DVD - 5 stars!!
Reviewer: Anonymous from United StatesOkay, to anyone reading this, just please keep in mind that the purpose of this video is to teach proper safety procedures, absolutely essential knowledge if you are considering working with fire. It is *not* meant to teach you the fire spinning craft in and of itself.
Understanding that, please read on...
The DVD does an excellent job instructing fire safety, from everything from appropriate dress, how to safely light up, and extinguish your poi, necessary equipment, it's purpose and use, and the importance of a safety partner (**essential**). How to properly pre-check your equipment is also covered. In addition to this, very useful information is given on how to properly plan for, and train for, any accidents that may occur while spinning (partner required - always, and you'll see why). Finally, the interviews are interesting, and very valuable, and the footage of Sage spinning fire is very enjoyable as well.
I feel that this belongs in every spinner's library. And it's free!
Brilliant for the beginner
Reviewer: Christina Malcolm from United KingdomI'm very much a novice when it comes to fire dancing and having purchased my first set of fire fans, this was a brilliant instructional dvd from all the basics, that you really don't think about, like which fuel, how to actually get the fuel onto the wicks safely, how to put out that flames at the end of your performance, that's a really good one!! I have found it to be absolutely perfect for me and will have no fear in recommending it to others.
Keep up the good work.
Awesome Stuff!
Reviewer: Greg Yarbrough from United StatesHi,
I haven't watched the whole thing but what I have watched I think is totally awesome, informative, and perfect. I had already read about the Pele accident on a forum. I thought that what happened to her was completely horrible, but a very good example about fire safety. I emailed a copy of it to everyone I know that does any type of juggling art. Now that I have the DVD I can show it as a tool to help prepare my team, for our upcoming performance, to respect the flame! I love the DVD already and think that it is completely awesome that you sent it free of charge to make sure that people are safe out there. Keep up the great work, and Thanks for everything!
