The Tahoe Fire Dancers combine the use of performance tools and dance styles including:
· Poi- A pair of roughly arm-length chains with handles attached to one end, and bundle of wicking material
on the other.
·
Staff- A rod of wood or metal, with wicking material applied to one, or
both ends. Staves are generally used in pairs or individually, though many performers are now experimenting with three or
more staves
·
Rope Dart- A long rope with a fire
ball at the end.
· Fans-
A large metal fan with one or more wicks attached to the edges.
· Palm Torches- Small torches with a flat base meant to be held upright in the palm of the hand.
