- Here is a silly and quick tutorial of the first 5 things that you can start to learn with a ball when you begin contact juggling. These simple ideas will inform the rest of your practice, and you should include them in all of your learning after you have more tricks included! It will bring the ball into a larger range of motion than your simple hand-held tricks, and give you the room to dance!
Dance magic dance!
Excellent tutorial for a beginner just getting started! I was getting a little intimidated with all the videos saying the first thing to learn is the butterfly. I feel I could confidently start with this sequence while training for something more complex.
Awesome. This teaches an element of contact juggling that gets sorely missed in all other tutorials I've seen..
I love that it is about a full interaction with the space and the body through the ball. So it's a full body awareness through very simple gestures yet mesmerising. thank you
I'm just getting started, and have watched a few tutorials, but I have to say you're has been the most effective I've seen. Just within the few minutes I watched I've already gotten a lot smoother and things have come together recognizably. This was really good.
Terrific tutorial! I wish someone had encouraged me to explore more like this when I got started with contact.
Glad to hear you enjoy it!
Pre-pre-newbie here I've been watching tons of tutorials and this is my favourite 😍 you have inspired me to upgrade from an orange to a real ball (that's a big step for me!).
I will be following. Thank you for posting x
Thank you so much for this!!!!
I will join others in singing your praises! Your teaching style is lighthearted and accessible. And I love that you start with these moves that are about simply getting a feel for the ball in your hands, learning to balance and control the weight of it in different planes, etc.... before moving on to Butterfly, Enigma, etc. Thank You!
I love the emphasis on using the space around you and sequencing! That way the art is incorporated as quickly as the technique.
Thanks! It's really important to do!
Awesome!!! I've watched a bunch of beginner's tutorials and they didn't speak to the really beginner's steps that I was looking for. I love this and how it starts with just familiarity with out ball! I wanted to say thank you and loving the light-hearted silliness of the video.
Thank you for this tutorial! I am very new to contact juggling, have one ball, and am trying to figure out where the heck to start! This was a good one to start with, but I wish there was a lesson plan. XD
Wow I just followed along and you’re such a great teacher! I’m that much better than five minutes ago! Heck yeah girlie get it!
Tried to make an intro video for absolute beginners that ends up with enough to do some impressive enough stuff with a brand new contact ball in 6:54...
-nailed it.
ACE! and not a hint of a butterfly :D
Love it, thank you! And it's really fun to watch you, you seem to be a very nice and cheerful person.
Starting learning today with an organic grapefruit tysm for an amazing starters guide!
thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and breaking it down for new people who want to learn, bought a ball and haven't picked it up in a couple of years... you're an excellent teacher who broke it down so well and demo'd it, like you really wanted me/someone to learn, not just show off your stuff. appreciate you. can't wait to check out your other vids.
best teacher so far :)
This has been the most helpful beginner video I've come across on RUclips. Every other video I've watch has you doing the butterfly first which seems more beginner intermediate. THANK YOU!
Thank you so much for making this; you have renewed my motivation to pursue this art form. God bless you!!!
Thank you thousand times. Great inspiration! Iam going to practice all of this.
Hooray! I have created a tutorial of 5 things to help you learn the butterfly too, so check that out. :)
Really good tuto! Thanks
"Looking like a bit of a weirdo, that's fine" lol, yeah that's me all the time anyway.. great video, you're awesome!
We need more women in Contact Juggling - such a lovely video, thanks a lot! :)
Just got my ball today, please post more basic tricks and excersizes to try
Yes! Thank you!
Very cool! Thank you !
Thank you! It's great to see something other than straight to the butterfly! And the moves look good !!
I think it would be REALLY cool of all of us beginners started an online Zoom group to practice and chat. It's a great way to get positive reinforcement.
We are 100% on board with this! Part of the difficulty for beginners now is there is less of a centralized base of information and support for beginners and SO MUCH information on RUclips that it’s overwhelming.
We’re planning to get something up and running and we’ll post a video in the usual places once we have a better idea of times etc.
@@ballcontact1041 Very well said. I had the same issue when I began training in Sleight-of-hand online. WAY too much information overload. Many beginners quit just because of that alone. Once I start something, I have to keep going. So I'm very careful with what I decide to commit to. But the moment I saw a masterful and beautiful performance of contact juggling, I said "This is too lovely not to learn!"
Great tutorial!! It's fun and super useful! Plus these things are "simple" to learn so it boosted my confidence and motivation!
This is sooo perfect for the beginners! I like contact juggling myself, but a also use it as a tool when I work with kids with learning disabilities. It is great for me, because you can succeed really fast!
You're awesome! This is the best tutorial I have seen, and I wish I had seen this before; I'm sure going to start again with these ones and try to use more of my space, which is what I was struggling with! Thank you
Thank you for this video! This gets me more comfortable with moving with the ball.
That is very well done . i just got a ball and now the learning process begins
I started doing traditional juggling a few months ago and just discovered contact juggling so I got a ball yesterday. It's so hard but you describe it phenomenally well. Looking forward to trying these (well maybe less forward to the circle shoulder thing... as a skateboarder my shoulders take a beating and don't like to move that way as much so that's going to take a while for me to learn). Anyway, yeah just wanted to say thanks. I dig your instruction and demonstrations. Can't wait to practice these techniques!
So happy you've joined our channel! We hope to have lots coming up in the pipes soon!
i love this so much, especially how you introduce space and sequencing and you included two point touch! not even a single cradle!! :O i just really like this video hahaha, thank you
Great tutorial! Super easy
This tutorial was awesome! Thank you so much for taking the time to share these moves and explain the mechanics of them. I am just getting started and this helped a lot!
This is great news! Keep an eye out, I am looking to produce more tutorials soooooon!!
(and join the #30daysofCJ on instagram with us!
Wow, buying a ball now. I’ve done clubs, passing, and even a 100+ catches of 5 ball; but this looks so damn cool!
Amazing video, I just got my ball today and I am really pumped to start learning! Are there any videos you would recommend to follow on from this one?
Hello! Welcome to contact! Dawn and I have got a number of good foundation lessons on this channel, and there is a load of great stuff on her DawnDreams channel too. I would go for my Introduction to Illusion Style, on this channel to get an insight into that side of things and also jump straight into arm rolls. (before butterflies because it all helps) Over on DawnDreams there are a sequence of 5 or so lessons all dedicated to arm rolling which will get you well on your way. Come find us on FB and watch this space because we should have some more tutorials up soon
Fully agree with the comment below.
love it, thanks for bringing the fun into my practice :)
great video
So graceful and beautiful, a real inspiration, gonna get some balls ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
really appreciate this video!
Thanks so much, been really stuck with what to do. Very helpful. :)
You are a graceful, beautiful angel faery!! I could watch you all day!!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! :) :)
Thank you for the tutorial. I just got my first ball so I could learn. ❤️
Very very new to this (yes I'm practicing with a tennis ball 😂) and I put on some music to vibe to as I practice the palm to fingertips thing. My mom walked in on me and thought I was a weirdo 😂
Did you see the new collaboration video we just released? We’re all weirdos here! ruclips.net/video/SdUs0--TMlM/видео.html
@@ballcontact1041 😂 awesome
Ooooh thank youu
For a beginner, I'd first suggest dropping the new ball and kicking it around for a while so as to get used to dropping it thousands of times;)
as an old person, it also makes you bend over and exercise back muscles, during pick up retrevials.....lol... Too cold or hot to do outside in TX,( over grass)...but clear a spot over carpet in living room and stay away from glass coffee tables...lol... good luck
yes
What is the perfect ball for contact juggling
Pl tell ball ia breakable
I lurvs it!!!✨🐉🙏🙏🙏🔥💜
Great video. What size ball would you recommend for my first? 90mm or 100mm are all I see at Flowtoys.
Another thing is what they never mention is contact is no good with long skinny fingers ! These go well with guitar, piano and normal juggling.I found this the hard way after a year of crap 💩 progress.Genetics rules our ability in everything 🐭
you must have had the bub by now you are juggling 24-7 haha
Indeed! The wee pumpkin keeps me very busy!
Can I ask what size and grams this ball is? I want to learn lots of hesd stuff but I want to start with a stage ball rather than acrylic and Im not sure which size and weight to get
Definitely get a stage ball (practice ball like this) for starting on head rolls, as wise men once said you have to protect your neck. Stretch too.
For size 100-130mm is recommended for rolling, 90mm is totally possible but will roll a bit faster. As for weight I tend to prefer a heavier 210g ball, but I do love the 185g radfactor stage balls too. If possible try different ones as they teach you different things.

@@ballcontact1041 Thank you so so much!
Is it breakable. This ball is made of which metal
Given enough determination and focus pretty much anything can eventually be considered breakable, but luckily this is a practice ball, often called a stage ball and they are made of very strong and resistant plastic.
The ‘worst’ thing that can happen is if you leave something heavy on top of them and they end up a bit flat and egg shaped, but you have to really try for that and they’re really not that expensive in the overall scheme of juggling props.
I don't have the balls to try this
Oranges are sufficient.

How difficult is contact ball juggling? Can someone put it into perspective for me before I buy one? Like, what's the learning curve compared to that of mastering an instrument, or doing Poi for example?
More difficult than poi, depending on where you go. We are trying to make more accessible tutorials for beginners because one of our problems with the learning curve is out teaching methods haven't improved much & this could be fixed. I still encourage you to buy a stage ball! it's 15$ at most and you can try this tutorial! Or, try with an orange :D
Ball Contact Thanks for the reply :)
Noah Dancaster From my experience, it's fun and rewarding right out of the gate. I do hope you decided to try it!
Does it matter what type of ball I use? (I’m getting a clear fushigi or whatever soon so)
Hi! We recommend 4" stage balls for practice.
Ball Contact ok, thank you! ❤️
Big man
