Now more than ever we are in need of simple, affordable, accessible interventions for improving quality of life. SpinPoi was created to address this need by combining Mātauranga Māori (Māori knowledge) with scientific evidence to produce a fun and powerful modality for improving our physical, cognitive, and emotional wellbeing.
SpinPoi works through simple movements done with poi, a ball on a cord that you spin in circular patterns around your body. The movements can be done together or alone, sitting or standing, anywhere any time. All you need to participate is a pair of poi, which can be made from items around the house or purchased from one of the many local poi makers in communities across the globe.
SpinPoi has been spreading through online resources and training courses which provide members of the community with the confidence and resources they need to work with poi as a therapeutic tool, and empowers them to improve wellbeing for their communities. SpinPoi is run by the community, for the community.
