how to juggle?


http://www.wikihow.com/Juggle


1. You have to get the hang of it.

• chose the right balls
• beanbags are usually for beginners
• make sure you have enough space for yourself to mess up and drop the beanbags or balls at the beginning.

2. To get the hang or the feel of things toss one ball from one hand to the other

•  The ball should come to eye-height or higher. Your hands should not move very much, so aim to keep your elbows at your hips.

3. start practicing with two balls.

• Toss ball A, and when it reaches the top of its arc, toss ball B. Practice until this simple exchange becomes comfortable.

4. juggle 3 balls

• start out slow and try passing three balls to each corner.
• when I look at it I picture windows to my upper left and upper right and toss them directly into the windows.
• for most of the time one ball will be in the air while two are in both of your hands.

Step 1. Start by holding just one ball. Cradle it in your palm with your elbows at your sides and relax. This is going

Step 2. One Ball

With your hands about waist level and keeping your elbows at your sides, use a scooping motion to toss the ball gently from one hand to the other.

Step 3. The Exchange

With a ball in each hand, throw one across just like before, then just as it begins to fall, throw the second ball in an arc right back to the first hand.

Step 4. Preparing for Three

Step 5. The Third Toss

The goal this time is to do two exchanges in a row.

[1] Take three balls with two in one hand, one in the other. If you are left handed you will probably want to start with two in your left hand.

[2] Throw the first ball from the hand holding two in an arc just like before

[3] As it begins to fall, throw the ball from the opposite hand and catch the first in your empty hand (so far it’s just like before)

[4] Now, as the second ball heads to the first hand, throw the third ball across in time to catch the second ball

Finally catch the third ball in your fingers triumphantly!

Study the diagrams to help you visualize it then give it a try!

Start with one ball. Throw the ball in an arc from hand to hand about eye level. The pattern will be an arc, not a circle.

Start with one ball in each hand. First toss the ball in your right hand (1) in the arc to about eye level to your left hand. When this ball (1) reaches the highest point in it's arc . . .

Start with 2 balls in one hand (1&3) (in this case the right hand, but if you are a lefty, use your left hand) and one ball (2) in the other. Start by throwing the ball in the front of your right hand in an arc to your left hand.


Common mistakes include throwing two balls in a circle, or throwing both balls at the same time.
