Juggling is a type of entertainment, a sort of physical activity which consists of moving props in an unconventional way. The most recognizable form of juggling tricks is repeated by tossing objects into the air and catching them again. Props may be ball, clubs, Hoops, diabolo, specially made clubs as well as everyday objects such as pens, boxes or hats. Some jugglers increase the drama of their shows using items such as knives, torches or even chain saws for juggling tricks.

The word juggling comes from the French jongleur and Old French jogler. Latin word joculari which means “joke” also had some contribution.

Recent history of juggling

In 1947, the International Association of jugglers was formed. Until, the early 50s and the twentieth century juggling tricks were practiced only by professionals. Since then, more and more people treated it as hobby. International Association of jugglers began operating as an association of professionals but was quickly joined by enthusiasts. Jugglers began regular meetings, trained people on ‘how to juggle’ and exchanged remarks. The meeting turned into juggling clubs, which are now in almost every major city.

The year 1980 began with a period of intensive development of juggling culture. They held demonstrations, workshops, juggling conventions and competitions and spread juggling tricks. They also began the production of industrial equipment related to juggling tricks which distribution dealt with the specialized shops.

Popular forms of juggling

Solo

Most jugglers concentrate on three types of objects – balls,clubs and rims. Many juggling tricks can be successfully executed but there are also unique tricks which need special practice.

• Juggling balls are the most popular and secure props to do juggling tricks.
• Maces (with appearance similar to bowling but essentially different in design) are the most difficult to master, but they look amazing due the fact that they spin in the air.
• Rims are rarely used, mainly because juggling tricks with them can be painful.

Multiplayer

You can do juggling tricks with one or more people by throwing the items in hand or in a group (passing). In multiplayer juggling tricks, jugglers usually stand face to face or back to back. For this type of juggling, clubs are best suited (clubsy). There are many forms of multiplayer juggling including:

• Passing (Administration) – Two jugglers stand near each other, each throwing objects.
• Stealing (theft) – one of the jugglers while juggling other objects steals one of them every time.
• Takeouts (sometimes also referred to as theft) – individual items are “stolen” from one of the jugglers, which does not interrupt the trick. After a while things go back to the holder.

Contact Juggling

Differs from other forms of continuous contact with the object of the body or other props. This is the most recognizable form of juggling a ball with acrylic. Frequently, it is clear, but they are also colorful. You can roll it in the flesh and thanks to its shape and transparency, you can create the illusion of suspension in the air (apparently ball does not move while dancing around her juggler). Usually a juggling trick using multiple balls need 75 millimeter bullets.

Juggling with fire

Juggling with fire can be performed solo or in groups. Typically, juggling tricks with fire enhance drama and jugglers have brief exposure to flames. Because this kind of juggling looks spectacular in the dark, limited visibility is also a impeding factor.
