Making Poi

Tena koutou katou
here's the finished product the Poi. Traditionally the poi was used
by men to make the wrists supple in preparation to use weaponry.












Here's Tehouhi using
her school made
poi.











The first step is to do four plat then you must tie a rive note.









There's Courtney and Laynah working on there poi but they were a bit to distracted by the camera.











There's cypress and Robert looks like there poi is not going to well. Once again the camera has attracted there attention.












Here's James Taylor and Ngaleigh
making the puffy bit on the poi.







There's Mereana and I working on our first poi and looking as good as ever I might add,









Here's Tehouhi again using the poi
