• How exactly will time be utilized at the Kinetics of Math camp?

  Students will spend roughly half of the time learning to spin poi and half of the time discussing mathematics associated with it.  Time for snacks, lunch, and relaxation will be allotted as well.

• What mathematical concepts will be covered?

  • Transformations on functions (linear, quadratic, trig)
  • Trigonometric Functions (sine and cosine)
  • Parametric equations
  • Graphing

• Who will be helping the students learn and succeed?

  Students will be led by three instructors.  One instructor will focus on the math.  One instructor will focus on the poi.  One instructor will assist students with developing confidence and assisting with administrative tasks.  Our instructors are hand-picked, top-notch experts in the fields of mathematics and object manipulation.  You could not find a better group to learn from.

• Who is Kinetics of Math right for?

  Kinetics of Math is focused on helping students who have had trouble connecting math to their lives.  It is focused on helping athletic students find their mathematical strength and confidence.  It is focused on helping academic students find a love of movement.  We believe there are more people who are actually skilled in mathematics than the number of people who think they are skilled at mathematics.  We hope to remove blocks instilled by previous comments that a person is “not good” at math and to help them find their strength.
