VLOG #2 - Intro to Contact Juggling

Other things to think about:
1) You can work with any size ball, but I recommend one that you can comfortably grip.
2) When you practice, try isolating the ball perhaps on the corner of a table or a stationary object. Make sure you are always the same distance from the stationary object while you are moving.
3) Stay relaxed at all times.
4) Anybody, any age, can do this. Stick to it and find out what you are capable of achieving! You won't know until you try!

you can practice with the chinese medicine balls, sure! They maybe a little small and harder to learn off of if you are trying to do some rolling up and down your arm. The larger the ball the slower it rolls and the better you can learn the control. However, if you are doing the simple translation tricks on this video you can simply use any ball that is solid in color. GOod luck!

Wow. I actually got me these two balls because I thought they were pretty ^^; ~ Now I wanted to try it out and... ACK! Totally owned!

I absolutely fail doing this with my left. Got to really try this out I guess~ Nice video! Thanks for the motivation~

[diannadavid]

well. i've learned it may not seem like you're doing a whole lot going slow, but that actually is the illusion itself. Even though I'm pretty good now, people still tell me to slow down....that's the secret! Control and accuracy wins the game. Wow, all news to me.

FANtastic, probably the best free lesson I've seen yet. Kinda makes me wish I'd put some kind of effort into making mine. Ho hum.

Mind if I link this off my butterfly video? this is such a better starting point, any plans for more contact tutorials?

[diannadavid]

well...i could try doing more. just so tied up. Totally don't mind about the link. thanks!

I love this video. I've been practicing for months and months- seen huge improvements- and still come back to this for motivation.

This is so nice, I've wandered through many contact juggling videos, but they nearly always start you with something so simple or more advanced that it's just irritating. This is a great way to begin and you explain things very clearly. It's all appreaciated by this novice!

Great lesson! Will practice it...

Thanks!

PS: you should consider changing the title of the video so its easier to find from the search bar!

[bringmesomepie]

This video may be from 2008, but it is helping me *today*. :) I have a ball and am going to work daily-just started. This was a great starter tutorial, and I look forward to all that I learn, so I can create my own tricks down the road. Really excited about the (even tedious) learning process. :)
