Book Description

November 30, 1997
Contact Juggling is an unusual and beautiful juggling technique. It involves rolling one or more balls on the hands, arms, and body. It combines the visual grace of dance with the technical demands of juggling. It is a joy to watch and a satisfying challenge to perform. This is James Ernest's original instruction book on contact juggling, first released in 1990, and now in its third edition. It contains instructions for all the basic moves, including hand rolls, isolations, multi-ball palm spinning, and more. It also contains updated sections describing a wealth of new and unusual contact juggling tricks. Juggler's World Magazine called Contact Juggling "one of the best-designed juggling instruction books available." The text and illustrations are clear and thorough. Grab your copy today!

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant book on a mesmerising art, January 3, 2010
This review is from: Contact Juggling (Paperback)
Like James Ernst, I got hooked on the idea of contact juggling before I knew there was a name for it, and by the same movie, Labyrinth. Most of the book is about the basics and some more sophisticated contact juggling, but at the end, there is a basic tutorial on traditional juggling, plate spinning, Devil Sticks, and more.

The author walks you through the techniques with detailed instructions and text, and provides instructions so good that you really could learn from the book (with much perserverence).

This book and a three inch ball can start you down an absolutely habit-forming path to entertain others and yourself. Big fun!

The book teaches step by step, breaks tricks in little parts to make it easier to learn. Detailed instructions that compete with videos available in internet.
