Oh, but if you needed me to do it my class was intermediate "Plateau Busters" for staff. Basically, a variety of different techniques that can open up whole new categories of moves for people that have painted themselves into a corner with focusing on one type of movement or another. Lots of martial arts, combat, contact, and improvisation.

But that being said, I'd rather take a class by lily. ;)

Thread jacking is so easy to do.... please stop and go get your EIGHT HOURS of practice in. Less talk... more spinning.

Meg, I would love your amazing assistance with this. Lily, your blog says you aren't going. Don't drama on me. If you are in, let me know, I would love to have your assistance. Can I please get both of your emails (send note to chad@freedomthrufire.com). We can coordinate what we want to cover. I could really use a traditional staff spinner help as well.

There are a lot of classes that are probably going to have over 80 people in them. I personally think is is very difficult to teach a class effectively with over 30 students(depending on the tool and material being covered). I could use an assistant or two in my intro to poi class as well, if anyone wanted to lend a teaching hand there.

In my opinion how people handle teaching so many students is really up to the main instructor. In this staff class, I would be happy to let the person taking the intermediate contact group know what I was going to cover, have them tell me what they normally teach, and just say, yeah, teach your normal class, it rocks. Or could you just add this one foot work / movement based move to your normal stuff. But every teacher is different.
