Noel Yee’s Bio
Noel Yee has been involved in object manipulation for the past three years, focusing on poi and staff throughout, contact staff for a year, and most recently contact juggling. He values his experience training and collaborating with many individuals and groups including MCP from Scotland, Dave from Colorado, Isa Issacs and Temple of Poi, Zan from Instruments of the Now (which recently released the “Encyclopoidia”), Coven Fire Collective, LSD Fuego, InterKonnected, the fire arts festival with the IK dragon, and the Fire Conclave at Burning Man for the past two years.
Noel has taught contact staff classes in the Bay Area, South Bay, and is organizing classes in NY and the East Coast during this winter. He volunteered and taught a 30 person contact staff class at FireFrums in the Fall of 2006. In the Summer of 2006, Noel worked at Camp Winnarainbow teaching children circus skills and performance techniques. As a high school teacher Noel has a talent for explicit instruction. Keep your eye out for his contact staff instructional DVD to be realesed in Late Spring of 2007!
Quotes from students
Noel has Teacher's Vision, entering quietly into his students' practice, seeing clearly what is ripe for growth, and creating motion in just that place. Learning from him as I was just a beginner myself, Noel felt to me natural and organic, tied in with my particular timing of development. Not, like so many other teachers, trying to jam me into a particular formula, or using our interaction as a subtle means to feed his own ego. With Noel I felt guided and stimulated, and excited about practicing and learning about what was to grow out of my own person. Please look carefully at this young man as a teacher, in his humility you may not recognize at first the gifts and tremendous talents that he has.

Even when I'm just hanging out with Noel, he teaches me something. Teaching is so natural to him, so second nature. He can break down the steps of a move like nobody else. He is patient and teaches through clear demonstration. He is very adept at translating the complex mechanics of spinning into something you can actually understand.

Noel is a talented, detail-oriented, and intuitive teacher. He is generous with his knowledge and remains on the cutting edge with respect to new moves developed by the highest level of flow spinners in the United States. He critiques his students with a critical eye and will tell them in a supportive fashion that which needs to be improved. He is one of the best teachers I've ever seen.
