5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect at what it was meant for, October 8, 2002
This review is from: The Rhythm and Life of Poi (Paperback)
There wasn't a review up, so I thought I'd say something. This book is meant to teach about the origins of poi, it is NOT a book on poi moves. It is the PERFECT (and only) book for learning about the history and cultural signif of poi. It covers nearly everything that you'd like to know (how traditional poi are made), and wouldn't like to know (poi representing genitals). A good place to look for learning more about poi is [website] - there is another review of the book up there.
