Here is a set of POI I had for about 2 years. Note the extra long chain and highley used POI heads… (don’t worry I got some new POI)

I was having a Labor Day party and I wanted people to be talking about this party for weeks after. A friend of mine recommended BurningRaven.com. My friend said that he performs fire Poi and fire eating. He had a better price than most entertainers so I said sure. I’m glad I said yes. He couldn’t have been more professional and my friends were amazed.
Thanks again to our performer Tim, he warmed up the crowd in more ways than one.

About Burning Raven
Burning Raven is more then just a fire spinning site, it is more then just neat pictures, it is more then just one person.
I built this site first and foremost to promote my skills as a fire performer, and also to promote the art of POI. For those who don’t know what POI is (fire spinning) it comes from a New Zealand tradition practiced to keep people both mentally agile and physically fit. POI works the mind in both the left and right lobes, and works all the joints and muscles in the body. It teaches harmony in movement and stillness in thought. In addition to this, it is a great way to keep in shape in any age from 2-102 and beyond.
In its most basic essence, POI is a weight attached to a line that, when spun, makes an array of hypnotic circles in the air. While POI does not have to be lit on fire to be enjoyed, when it is burning, it is thrilling to see, mesmerizing to watch, and spell bounding to hear! Countless times I have seen the look of wonderment in the faces of audiences, shock in the eyes of some, and a new spark of creativity in others.
I have been spinning and eating fire for a number of years now, and everyday I learn a new way to move, a new way to think in harmony with my body and mind, and find a deeper stillness for my burning soul. The essence of fire is my CHI. I highly recommend this activity for anyone young or old, and highly recommend experiencing a fire performance live, in-person.
Please view my photos section (under the “about” tab) for some still shots of POI in action. Some video footage will be added to the site soon, so be on the lookout for that. Please contact me if you wish to book a performance for your party or to request a class. I’d love to hear from you.
Best Regards,
Burning Raven

Welcome to BurningRaven.com
Damn everything but the circus!
…damn everything that is grim, dull,motionless, unrisking, inward turning,
damn everything that won’t get into thecircle, that won’t enjoy,
that won’t throw its heart into the tension, surprise,
fear and delight of the circus, the round world,
the full existence…
— e.e. cummings

I am Burning Raven and will perform at your events–anything from a backyard get-together or family hula party, to corporate outings or stadium rock concerts.

In addition to performances, I am also a teacher and have taught this unique art form to a great many. I’ve helped others discover the passion of fire arts–the dances to still the mind and excite the body and the act of facing fear and letting it go. Many now spin as I do. You can learn too.
