What are my options?
Feature Performance
Type
Fire – the real deal. This art is most often performed outside but can be done inside depending on the building and insurance. There is a requirement of a 3m clearance zone between the performer and the audience.
LED – beautiful, colourful and fire-free. LED performances work great for indoor spaces and create stunning visuals. Recommended for night clubs and indoor parties.
Number of Performers
The more the merrier. More also makes for a longer and more dramatic show. Depending on the format and stage size available at your event we can arrange multiple performers on stage at once or have individual acts in sequence and extend the performance length.

Set lengths start from around 15 mins but can be as long as 40 mins depending on the number of performers on rotation and format required. Normally with a 15 minute break between sets.
Silts & Wakabout
Number of Stilt Walkers
The more the merrier. Stilt Walkers can either move together as a group through the crowd or split up depending on requirements and custom / character types. For smaller events 2 Stilt Walkers can be plenty, if you have more than 100 guests though we would recommend more.
Number of Sets
Set lengths for Stilts are 30 minutes. Normally with a 15 minute break between sets.
Circus Workshop
Workshop Length
This really depends on the time you have available for you event. We go from 15 minutes to an hour and a half. The more time though, the more information we can impart and more practice can be had.
Number of Students
The more students, the more instructors we bring along to ensure everyone gets the attention and tuition they need.
Thank you again for yet another top class performance from your team.
It is rare to find such a brilliantly dexterous and jaw droppingly skilled ensemble of fire acrobats and artists that are so calm and capable in entertaining not just the older guests but also the very young. You remain at the top of our address book ad I look forward to watching those smiles from the guests at our next gig together.
Jeremy GarsonI booked Fireflow for a large private event this summer and was blown away by Erin and the team’s professionalism, talent and dedication. Our client was delighted with the performance and Erin even arranged backing musicians which topped off the amazing performance which took place after dinner.

Equipment
Poi
Originating from New Zealand, Poi dancing is a traditional Maori practice used to increase hand flexibility, strength and co-ordination. Essentially a ball attached to a length of rope, the original poi design has now been adapted to what we now know as Fire Poi. Kevlar wicks are attached to chains and with one poi in each hand, they are beautifully spun, leaving amazing patterns of fire as the performer dances and moves.
We use the highest quality LED Glow Pois with the same colours and strobe effects as our Glow Staffs. Also super bright, they too create mesmerising light patterns in the night air as the performer dances and spins.
Staff
Our Fire Staffs vary in length and may be used singly or as a pair. It is the paraffin-soaked kevlar wicks on each end of the staffs which are lit. Watch in wonder as the performers skillfully combine the power of martial arts and the grace of dance with the exciting element that is fire. Feel the heat emanating from the staffs and hear the roar of the fire as the performer draws amazing swirls of flames through the air in time to the music.
Our top of the range LED Glow Staffs produce stunning effects. They generate incredibly bright, multicoloured wheels of light which spin captivatingly through the darkness.
Contact Staff
Same principle as your normal staff, just bigger. Normally performed with a single staff, contact staff involves the whole body, allowing the staff to roll and wrap around the shoulders, torso, arms and legs. With contact staff the performer does not ‘hold’ on to the staff, rather it flows and moves around the performers body.
This requires great skill and control. The end result is performance that can appear to defy gravity and is sure to amazing.

FireClub
FireClub is where we practice fire for our performances. It is also where the local community of fire spinners can meet, swap skills and make new friends.
FireClub can provide an introduction to spinning to anyone who would like to learn. Once you are a proficient spinner we will take you through all the safety aspects of using fire so you can take your spinning to the next fiery level.
If you are not yet a FireFlow student and want to find out what this fire spinning thing is all about, or you are interested in booking FireFlow for your event, you are welcome to pop along to FireClub and see for yourself how awesome fire spinning is! We also welcome musicians interested in jamming while we spin.
FireClub is based in Sudbury, Suffolk. We meet every Friday at 8pm on Friars Meadow in Sudbury. You can access the meadow via the Kingfisher Leisure Centre car park or the Quay Theatre overflow car park. We will be at the Quay Theatre end of the meadows next to the river. FireClub is a space for people to meet other performers as well as share, teach and learn fire and circus skills. There are pois spinning, staffs twirling, hula-hoops hooping, stilts striding, diablos rolling, devil-sticks waving and unicycles wobbling. This list is not exhaustive! All abilities, skills and types of equipment are welcome.
