How to Learn to Juggle & How to Learn New Juggling Skills

Okay, so you want to learn how to juggle? Well hopefully the IJA can point you in the right direction so that you will be juggling in no time! Once a juggler, always a juggler; and a juggler always strives to improve in some fashion. But as a new juggler, here are some good links to help you learn with scarves and balls, the most common objects for learning how to juggle (normally three in a basic cascade):

• How to Juggle 3 Balls - The above video instructions on the 3-ball cascade on videojug.com (with a leading advertisement).

And finally, here are some general 'learn how to juggle' links for your use:

When you can at least juggle three balls, it would be a smart idea to buy some juggling videos so that you can learn the best from the best!
