The Burning Hearts Fire & Lights Theater from Allentown, PA were also in attendance to put on a show featuring different members of the troupe.  There were poi and hoop performances, such as with poi, hoops, and a contact staff, and there were some cool stick manipulations, too!  You’ll see in the photos below.  Each act did a great job!

So, yeah, it was so cool to see people doing what I love to do, only with fire.  I’m still chicken to try hooping with fire, but I probably will take a big gulp of air and try it one day.
