Young & Old

It looks like our performance inspired a young Maori boy and an older kuia (elder woman) to hop up and test out their poi skills. I was impressed and thrilled to discover she could still keep two long poi going, single-handed. I haven’t got that kind of coordination on my best day. And I love the pride in her face.
