I know how to juggle my life. I want to learn how to juggle balls, bean bags, apples, etc. I have a book that seems quite easy to learn from. I have practiced many times. I just am not very good at it. I keep dropping them. lol I just can't seem to get the hang of it. Does anyone have any juggling tips so I can get better at this?

Well, I always juggle my time with all the appointments I get. LOL. I try to juggle stuff: balls, small objects, oranges, and a couple of other stuff. I can't get passed three and I can't catch them. Maybe just keep your concentration on the items falling and not the ones going up. The items going up still keep me distracted but I still practice just to make sure I can get it right. Remember, practice makes perfect. :)

I guess it depends on what I'm juggling. LOL I can't juggle balls, bean bags, or anything else like that, but I've gotten pretty good at juggling the bills! LOL Yep, I think I've finally gotten it down to where I don't get charged a late fee anymore! I don't like to juggle the bills, but it's nice to know I can do it if I need to. Happy mylotting! PS I noticed this discussion is 3 years old. Have you gotten any better at juggling?

When I was in school....years ago.........They tried to teach us, starting with scarfs, I was corrdinated enough to even handle the slow moving scarfs, and never tried throwing anything I thought may come back down to injur me. So I gave up on it, and I'm okay with that. So sorry no tips here.

I have been practicing juggling for about 2 years now and I have become quite fond of it. During my juggling adventures I have taught several of my friends how to juggle. Basically you want to start off with 3 small, round objects of the same size and weight. Start by practicing with 2 balls with 2 hands and then learn how to do two in one hand. Slowing start practicing 3...and always remember that only one ball is in the air at any given moment, and the other two are in both of your hands. After an hour or so of practice you will start getting the pattern down and soon you will be emerged to the difficulties that come with extra balls. I currently can juggle 4 very well but I am struggling with that 5 one...practice makes perfect!

That's a strange topic :) i would like to learn it too but I failed when I was a kid and in my teens, I had a friend who was able to do it like magic but he never wanted to give any tips, he said it's just a natural thing and he just started to do it without learning!, i guess some people can be gifted with strange things like that and they never need practice to learn it.
