Catching the Juggling Ball

The Masked Jugglers — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 23:28:05 +0000

Sometimes the juggling ball continues to fall out of your hand when catching the ball. Go back and do more hand exercises using both hands developing fine motor skills, especially in the area of touch, as demonstrated by Lincoln and Emelia in Juggling Brain video Step 2. This is to help the message to get quickly from your hand to your brain to prompt you to close your hand over the ball. After you consciously do this for practice, it will become natural and you will be able to concentrate on juggling 3 balls, which is what you want to do!

Two ball juggling for 6 year olds

The Masked Jugglers — Sat, 29 Aug 2009 23:54:37 +0000

Annie, a teacher of six year olds wanted the best eye-hand coordination for her children. And she wanted to teach them how to juggle. They watched the Juggling Brain video every day and followed the 10 steps. At the end of the term the class gave a concert. Not only were the parents greatly surprised seeing six year olds juggle two balls, but the teacher had given the students an even greater present - better eye-hand coordination. So necessary for learning to read and write when they go to their next grade.

Juggling too fast?

The Masked Jugglers — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 05:09:10 +0000

You are learning how to juggle 3 balls - brilliant idea - but the balls are flying everywhere. Some of us are impulsive with our throwing skills. Try slowing down the pace at which you throw each ball in the air. This will give you more time to control the direction of throw in a rainbow arc - just right for you to catch with the other hand. Refer to Step 5 of the Juggling Brain video for conscious control of the arc from the right and left hands - and get it right.

Throwing with right and left hands

The Masked Jugglers — Sun, 19 Jul 2009 10:46:59 +0000

You are learning how to juggle. Great! You won’t regret it. Here is a hint about learning with both hands. Once you have learned to throw a juggling ball leading with your right hand, it is important to practise leading with your left hand and vice versa. You may find this awkward to begin with, but juggling requires both hands to be able to throw the ball straight in an arc in the air to land accurately in the other hand. Watch Lincoln in Step 5 of the Juggling Brain video, as he throws the juggling ball with either hand. The better your non-preferred hand is, the better you are able to juggle three balls.

Star of the Juggling Show

The Masked Jugglers — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 12:53:53 +0000

Tom told us how excited he was when his teacher said we are going to put on an end of term circus concert in May. “I learned how to juggle from the Juggling Brain video my Mom gave me for my birthday”. He told us he was already juggling three balls and was practicing the tricks. which is why he tried out for the role of the juggler in the show! He got it and began working on a routine. He would do turning around, juggling high and low, starting behind the back, bouncing off the knee. All tricks he learned from the Juggling Brain video. With the goal of the circus show in mind he sequenced the tricks, got a showman’s outfit, got some show stopping music together, and what do you know - became the star of the show. “I could only do it because of the Juggling Brain video,” Tom told us. “it gave me all the clues.”

You can do it !

Lights, Camera, Action!

The Masked Jugglers — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 11:02:52 +0000

When learning how to juggle three balls, stand beneath a good light and slightly in front of it. This way the light falls on the balls and when you look up you don’t get the light directly in your eyes. As anyone knows who is performing juggling tricks, you need to practise with lighting staff, and find out how to avoid being blinded by strong lights coming on to the stage from the audience side. It’s getting more exciting thinking about performance time. It’s time to show off to your friends!

Imagine juggling grapes

The Masked Jugglers — Mon, 25 May 2009 12:48:01 +0000

We were going to make a video to demonstrate how to juggle Chocolates (see post) and had everything lined up - camera, masked juggler, chocolates in the refrigerator……

Uh Oh ….. then we discovered another Masked Juggler, who shall remain nameless, had taken and eaten all the juggling chocolates !!! So if you can’t visualize chocolates, how about visualizing big purple grapes?

Why are we talking about how to juggle grapes?

To show you how you can keep throwing your juggling balls close to you - up instead of out. Juggle something you love to eat and pretend to throw them towards your mouth - don’t drop them and keep imagining them falling into your mouth. Can you taste those large purple grapes now? Soon you will be throwing that third ball up instead of out, and juggling 3 balls with the best of them. Our masked juggler who had to settle on grapes, eventually couldn’t resist catching one in his mouth and savouring the flavour!

Have fun !
