Spinning Poi with Tonya Kay!
 

"There is usually one small step we can take in the direction of a dream.  When we do the universe often takes several more.” 
~ Julia Cameron

 

 

 

 

Guess what, Diva!
Your gruelling pushup days are over!

"Now You Can Have the Sculpted Upper Body of a Dancer, Without Having to Endure the Standard Grunting & Moaning Routine of Pushups and Crunches!"

Dear Diva,

We recently invited Super-athlete, dancer and comic book heroine, Tonya Kay, to visit us at The Raw Divas Sisterhood. Let’s face it, few raw bodies can compare to hers and If anyone has ever questioned the viability of the raw food diet, then Tonya Kay is living proof that this diet is about vitality!

Her diet supports a workout schedule that would bring most of us to our knees! Tonya’s a woman whose life is devoted to movement and self expression.

Naturally, we wanted to know what she's doing to get and keep that body tight, that energy BOUNDLESS, and all the spunk in that Diva.... and she told us!

If you’ve never heard of spinning poi, then you’re in for a treat! Here’s what she had to say about it:

"When you spin weighted sacks around your body, over your head, behind your back and around you in any way, shape or form, the muscles that develop are so beautiful. They’re the core muscles; your stabilizing muscles, your waist, lumbar and abdominal muscles."

We each ordered ourselves a set
before we even got off the phone call!

Well, well, well…

Little did we know that we had stumbled upon a fantastic new pastime, a super upper-body builder, and a whole lot of fun!

The best thing about spinning poi, is that our kids love it as much as we do!

Now, you've see what Tonya's body looks like. Here's what she has to say about the workout that poi give her and why you'll never need another gym membership AGAIN!

"My biceps began to define themselves immediately. I’m a pretty defined person, but poi spinning issuch a wonderful way to do upper body exercise. I don’t necessarily like tolift weights. It progressed me faster than going to a gym would have. I would have dropped out of a gym."

Besides being the most fun way to increase your upper body strength AND core strength, spinning poi also:

Increases your co-ordination and balance
Improves your reaction time
Is fun, creative and allows for self-expression!
Can be done with the whole family! Kids of all ages LOVE IT!!
Is great to do with music.
Can be used as an active form of meditation (circles being very powerful in sacred geometry!!)


Well, having had such fun with this, we decided we better do our part to spread the word. Frankly, when we go to the park to practice, not very many people know what it is! It’s still new!

Imagine! All those people who are still grunting and puffing away doing their pushups and weights when they could be spinning poi instead!

This form of exercise allows you to embrace the smooth moves and skill of a dancer, while playing with your own funky expression through movement!


"The poi are such fun.  I picked them up at the post office this morning...  The dogs and I are very, very glad they are soft.  I don't think I'm quite ready for fire yet, and the dogs agree..  Thanks for introducing me to them...and thank Tonya, too, for providing a neat form of exercise that even an OLD woman can dig."

~ Shaun

 

"Definitely having a blast with Poi! I am just starting the two handed workout with Tonya. It's really hard to walk away from. I can't wait til I can do all the moves so I can add the fire! You know, I feel like this
is so unfair, I'm 57 and I feel like 21!!! I have all this fabulous energy and people are going to think I'm nuts! But they'll be jealous!!

I haven't weighed 120 in years and years and I just have to get my sisters healthy, sista! I have a much younger sister that is always dieting the wrong way and bouncing up and down on the scale and she gets
so mad when I tell her my weight. And it's been stable now for a few months. I have an older sister that is just plain into way too much cheese and ice cream and really has a hard time keeping it off. Though she looked pretty good a year ago. Hope she hasn't slipped backward. I am trying to light their fire, but the wood sure is damp!"

~ Mary Ellen


"My parrot is fascinated, she keeps going "oooh-oooh" but is also scared. The poi are cool and fun, and you know--you can really feel them in the inner muscles of your upper body, not the muscles you would use with weights at all.  very cool!"

~ Mary

 

"I love my poi! I got hit a couple of times, but I didn't even feel it! My girls (6 years old) were watching with big eyes and said: "Mommy, you are all color!" We also enjoyed the video together and everyone loved the
fire poi!"

Cheers,

~ Karin

 

"I LOVE the poi. Absolutely love them. And the DVD is amazing. I'd bought a different poi DVD, geared towards bellydance...which was okay, but Tonya's vid is so much better, both in production values and mood. It makes me want to get out there and move!

Love it, love it, love it!"

Thanks again,

~ Carolyn

 

 


What is Poi Spinning?

Originating from New Zealand, poi spinning was used by Maori warriors as strength training before battle. It is the spinning and twirling of weighted sacks (they used to use rocks!) on strings, from your fingers. With centuries of development, poi spinning today is an exotic dance of skill and fire which will build upper body and core strength as it did for the Maori warriors.

You don't need to be a Maori warrior to spin poi, and It doesn’t matter what size you are or if you’ve ever thought yourself to be a “dancer” before. As soon as you get those poi spinning, they get YOU moving and you'll be having such a great time, you just won’t be able to stop yourself!

Poi spinning is meant for outside, but if your ceilings are high enough, you can easily clear up a space in the living room or basement, turn up the music, and discover the latest and greatest form or artistic body sculpting there is, right in the comfort of your own home!


This DVD is the only professional DVD on poi spinning!!

We guarantee this is going to get you moving and be more fun than you could have possibly imagined! Tonya has put together a professional quality, simple to follow, and fun instructional DVD to teach you everything you'll need to know to play with your poi!
