Group Activities
Being in a fire tribe is much like being in a circus family. The most common thing people do is practice together. It takes a lot of time to learn difficult moves, and a lot more time to learn how to work them into a routine with other people involved.
Practicing partner moves is also a good reason to get involved with a fire troupe. Once a level of trust has been built between two or more people, they can practice intricate choreographies, often with the fire coming very close to another person. Some of the most common partner props are poi, contact/single staff, hoop, and fans.
