About Us
West Coast Juggling at it's heart consists of two dedicated fire performers, David Hirshman and Jen Haverty. David is the owner, and Jen, the inspiration for West Coast Juggling. For the past 9 years Dave has been training extensively with the ever present dream of sharing his art with the world. West Coast Juggling was created as the realization of Dave's dream to offer his brand of fire flower sticks and other performance tools to the juggling community. A good portion of the fire equipment sold is hand-made by Dave.

WCJ Store Info
West Coast Juggling is a manufacturer and distributor of high-quality, hand-made Fire Flower Stix, Fire Staff, Fire Poi, Fire Rope Dart, Fire Sword & Fire Nunchaku. We offer a variety of performance tools and practice toys including devil sticks, flower sticks, astrojax, contact spheres, poi, fire weapons and juggling accessories. We at WCJ are good at what we do because we're constantly quality testing our product. We also get input from other fire dancers in the community that use our product and we're continuing to improve design. WCJ takes this seriously and does not make a tool that we do not perform with ourselves, and we have refined our process to create quality and durable products.
Our Store Mission
Our mission is to spread joyful exercise around the world through object manipulation. Give a child a gift that stimulates the mind and keeps the body active, while still having fun! As they excel with their new toy, you can witness their progress with pride, knowing that you've helped a child grow in more ways than one. Object manipulation is a great introduction to fitness, juggling, dance, and geometry. Playing with West Coast Juggling toys is a good way to keep idle hands busy, a great way to pass the time, and most importantly, a positive alternative to digital distractions from the mainstream media which are often violent & disturbing (i.e. video games, TV shows & movies).
Peace Love & Flower Stix

Peace Love & Flower Stix
About Me:
Im Devil Stix Dave, I have been joyfully spinning devil stix & flower stix since 2000. I am a professional, insured fire dancer with advanced skills in Flower Sticks/Devil Sticks. I am into every form of object manipulation & flow art. I believe that play is the beginning of knowledge.
"Play is the only way the highest intelligence of humankind can unfold."
~ Joseph Chilton Pearce
"You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation." ~Plato
"When we come together to play and be we are truly ourselves. When we are truly ourselves it is wonderful and when we act collectively in that wonder we do transformative work for our community and our world." ~ Brad Colby
