"Poi" is the Maori word for "ball",(Maori are a New Zealand tribe). They used them to improve their coordination. They're balls on strings that glow, sometimes used with fire, and you can make all sorts of configurations in the air that looks fantastic.
PM me and I can send you some wicked videos of people doing it.

Well im not going to get into history and all like the guy ^^^, but very simply it is when u take glowsticks on the end of strings and come up with cool ways of spinnign them and coordinating them to make them look tight. It is very hard but once u get the hang of it, it is ez. I usually do it all the time in my room.

i dont know, back when i used to go raving a long time ago
i would do something that looks like you are skipping and kicking at the same time, i dont even know what its called
but i recently went to a rave, and no one did that anymore,so i was like whatever, and some guy comes up to me saying "Oldschool!" i was like ok,
i also like to use glowsticks and do the liquid with my hands.

also when i do the skip kicking, i like to transfer it what people refer to as nordic track i think and when i do that i like to jump and turn around in teh air, and then switch back to skip kicking, and when i skip kick i like the jump and around,so i use a big area to dance

Hahah well yeah not too many of my friends i no can do it so i just waiting for another dance at my high school to show it off. B/c where i live if u can do nehting good w/ glowsticks, lcd lights, liquid, or pop and ne of that stuff they think it is the coolest stuff. Hell u could pretty much throw ur arms around and do some stupid shit that wouldn't pass w/ real ravers, and they would be in aw! HAHA it is great. But there is one thing wen i started to learn how to do the glowsticks on ropes i got raqed in the balls 24/7 ahah

whens the last time. cause all I ever hear is "my stomach hurts" or "I gotta sit down" only recognition I do give u is the glowsticking.

OH then i guess your not cooooooooooooooooooooooool

lol

dancing is more about feeling the music and moving to it.. hence why they call trance dance music as well so to dance isnt a state of showing how cool you are..

being cool is making your car balance on 2 wheels while sipping tea

I just kinda jump around and move, everyone tells me I look like a tard, so I tell 'em to SHUTUP AND DANCE!

Heh, I don't think theres a REAL way to dance, just some people do it sekzier than others. Its an expression, and we can do it however the bloody hell we want.

Oh, I just can't get enough of the pvd foot stamp and air punch at the same time thing. Its great, I crack up all the time and it's a running joke with all my friends....the harder you stomp and punch, the better the song!

Ceheers, Caleb

YES, that most accurately describer what I do...
and the only way you can look uncool while dancing is to look nervous/uncomfortable/self-concsious or restrained. If you go all out I think it looks great, no matter what you do.

yep i do something similar to that

i use my feet and lower body to dance to the baseline and beat, while i use my hands to flow wiith the melody, glowsticks, liquid, or even just random motions lol!

fist pumping is definately a good call along with stomping !

I just stand there and thrash my right arm to the beat until it gets tired. Then I thrash my left arm until it too gets tired. I move my feet a little but for some reason, I just feel the need to thrash my arms to the beat.
