"Ok some advice...I am in the same boat except I am also trying to become a fire performer as well. Keep community groups like boys/girl scouts, 4-H, etc in mind. Call the leader of those groups and ask to do a demonstration. For something…"
Bearclaw Manufacturing - Tedward replied to the discussion 'Sword'"You're looking for "spring steel" or "competition ready" swords."
"Ok thanks. I did some looking around using the information you gave me and I found a few websites that sell them. Thank you very much :)"
Bearclaw Manufacturing - Tedward replied to the discussion 'Sword'"Umm technically "blunt" but most of them are thin sheet metal so they can't get any more blunt than a butter knife. Most are a bit sharper even without having an edge applied. Swung with force, they'll still do…"
"Do you have a link to one of those swords. The movements seem very similar to poi and staff."
Bearclaw Manufacturing - Tedward replied to the discussion 'Sword'"That would be anna maltese, and those are fairly common martial arts sabers.
Learning the sword is a bit of a trick. Most martial arts forms are entirely useless for performance. The martial arts that were developed for competitions,…"
Sword
Does anyone work with swords? They seem like a lot of fun. Doesnt neccessarily have to be fire sword. Where did you learn sword? Any tutorials to start off with, or do you recommend just going for it?And what sword do you use for practice instead of fire swords? Can someone tell me where to buy the sword in this video? I really like it and it seem fun for practice. I'm hoping someone recognized it, its from the Fire Drums video. The sword I am talking about starts at 3:10 Here's the link:…See More
Tink in Tokyo replied to the discussion 'Video Camera'"You definitely want HD. It gives you better resolution and more cropping or panning options if you want to edit it into a smaller format.
For me, waterproof & dustproof is a requirement, since I often film outside and don't like coddling my…"

Oh my god. I found the "I Wanna Go" video of you and seriously forwarded it to everyone who knows about my hooping habit.
New to hoopcity, I opened the "Fire & Parents" thread (I'm 17 and plan on starting with fire when I turn 18); and I was like asjfklsdjflksdjflkWOAH! when I realized you were smithaar12, haha.
I just wanted to say that you really are an inspiration-- not just because I started doing linear isopops, one-leg hooping, etc. because of you-- but because I can, in short, completely relate to the need to find a passion and "graduate with a bang."
Your story about how hooping changed your life displays an extraordinary amount of maturity and got me teary-eyed.
Seriously. You're amazing. <3
