      fire staff: a piece of wood or metal with wick on the ends for fire... well I guess you dont have to light it on fire.
      Three concepts I would be touching on would be:

      Staff movements, basics on how to spin a staff.

      Contact spinning, saddles/places on your body to transfer a staff from one spot to the other without closing your hand around the staff

      Static spinning, much like contact except not moving the staff from one saddle to another. Instead keeping a saddle point on an off center point on your staff. so moving saddle points instead of the staff (kinda)
