MANA: Poi

“The Poi was originally used by women and men to strengthen their wrists and to develop flexibility in their hands. This was important, as most hand-held weapons such as the mere pounamu and kotiate were quite difficult to manoeuvre, if your wrists and hands were not strong. The poi was used to develop good hand-eye coordination which was required during battle. Nowadays, it is common for women to perform the poi for entertainment with beauty and grace.”
