History Beat Juggling has its roots in Cutting music cutting , in which a small section of a beat is Looping looped using two copies of the same Gramophone record record . This was first done by Kool DJ Herc , and later refined by DJs such as Grandmaster Flash in the early 80s. Two other fundamentals of modern beat juggling technique include tapping or walking, where the DJ taps the record in between percussion sounds, stopping it momentarily to slow down the beat, or pushing it faster to speed it up, and shuffling or strobing, where the DJ loops the two records at different points in the beat, literally remix ing the record live by playing new combinations of the sounds on the records. The term is an invention of the media, and not the actual title given by the creators. Juggling the beat merely describes what is being done. The inventor of the technique, DJ Steve Dee from Harlem, NYC, referred to it simply as bringing The Funk out of a record.

About the juggling trick Claw disambiguation In toss juggling , a claw also called a snatch is a trick in which the hand throwing or catching a ball is turned upside down so that the palm of the hand faces the ground. The effect is that of the jugglers hand appearing to snatch the ball out of the air. A claw can be juggled as an isolated trick, or be incorporated into an already existing juggling pattern. For example, the Mills Mess Boston Mess Boston Mess can be juggled with each right hand throw as a claw. The resulting pattern in known as cherry picking. Many other well known juggling patterns incorporate claw throws or catches. In most instances, both a throw and subsequent catch are performed as a claw. There are exceptions to this rule however. For instance, in Burke s Barrage the two balls that are thrown as siteswap 4s in columns and caught with a claw, while none of the throws are clawed. References Gillson, George.

Image 4 ball juggling.gif thumb right 201px 4 ball fountain The fountain is a juggling pattern that is often used for juggling an even number of objects. In a fountain, each hand juggles separately, and the objects are not thrown between the hands. For example, in a four ball fountain, each hand juggles two balls independently. A fountain can be synchronous or asynchronous. In a synchronous fountain, both hands throw at the same time, while in an asynchronous fountain, the hands alternate throws. The fountain can also be juggled in columns juggling columns , where the balls all travel vertically up and down, and are caught from where they are thrown, or round in a circle, so that they are caught close to the body and thrown from either side of it or vice versa . The fountain is used for juggling even numbers of objects because other patterns which alternate between hands such as the cascade do not work well for even numbers. In fact, a true cascade juggling cascade is impossible with an even number of objects, although there are several patterns such as the shower juggling shower that can be performed with even numbers.

about the juggling trick Chop disambiguation Chops is a 3 ball or club juggling pattern based on the cascade juggling cascade but involving a semicircular carry performed with either one or both hands Single Chops Double Chops . Chops can be performed continuously, by one or both hands, or in single instances. The distinctive carry occurs at the moment of catch rather than returning the ball into the cascade pattern the juggler carries the ball in his her hand in a downward pointing semicircle over the ball just thrown by the other hand, in the case of Single Chops, or over the other hand, in the case of Double Chops. At the end of the semicircular movement the carried ball is tossed virtually straight up to be caught by the nearby other hand. The hand used to carry then quickly returns to its original position to catch the ball that was thrown by the other hand and in mid air throughout this whole process. This pattern is of medium difficulty since very fast and controlled arm movements are necessary. Though with practice, the pattern can actually be performed in a slow looking motion the produced feeling is somehow casual and relaxed as opposed to a sportive interpretation.

File Douche3b.gif right frame An illustration of the shower juggling pattern. A shower is a juggling pattern for 2 or more objects, most commonly balls or bean bag s, where objects are thrown in a circular motion. Balls are thrown high from one hand to the other while the other hand passes the ball back horizontally. The animation depicts a 3 ball version. Siteswap notation for shower patterns is 2n 1 1, where n is the number of objects juggled. i.e. 31 for 2 balls, 51 for 3 balls, 71 for 4 balls, etc... The circular motion of the balls is commonly represented in cartoons as the archetypical juggling pattern, somewhat at odds with reality, where the cascade juggling cascade is more common. By constantly reversing the direction, the box juggling box pattern can be formed. There are two different types of shower synchronous shower, where both hands throw their ball at the same time and asynchronous shower. Difficulty One attraction of the shower pattern is that it does not change with increasing numbers of props. The four ball pattern is exactly the same as the three ball pattern, except that the balls are thrown higher or faster. This is unlike a cascade juggling cascade pattern for odd numbers of props, which must be juggled as a fountain juggling fountain if another prop is added. The easiest shower is the two ball shower, although some jugglers may consider that it is not juggling at all. If given two balls and told to juggle, the average person is likely to throw one in the air, pass across the other, and catch the first in the other hand.

Image 3 ball cascade movie.gif right frame An illustration of the 3 ball cascade. In juggling , a cascade is the simplest pattern achievable with an odd number of props. The simplest cascade is the three ball cascade. This is therefore the first pattern that most jugglers learn. Three ball cascade For the three ball cascade the juggler starts with two balls in one hand and the third ball in the other hand. One ball is thrown from the first hand in an Arc geometry arc to the other hand. Before catching this ball the juggler must throw the ball in the receiving hand, in a similar arc, to the first hand. The pattern continues in this manner with each hand in turn throwing one ball and catching another. All balls are caught on the outside of the pattern on the far left and right and thrown from closer to the middle of the pattern. The hand moves toward the middle to throw, and back towards the outside to catch the next object. Because the hands must move up and down when throwing and catching, putting this movement together causes the left hand to move in a counterclockwise motion, and the right hand to move in a clockwise motion. This pattern is achievable with a wide array of props besides regular balls. Commonly used props are Juggling club clubs , Juggling ring rings and Juggling scarves scarves . Because of their slow falling speed due to high Drag physics air resistance , scarves juggling scarves are often used as a first prop for beginning jugglers. The cascade is only performed with an odd number of objects 3, 5, 7, etc. The basic pattern for an even number of objects is the Fountain juggling fountain .

Image Juggling trick 3b box.gif right frame An illustration of the box juggling pattern. The Box is a juggling pattern for 3 objects, most commonly balls or bean bag s. Two balls are dedicated to a specific hand with vertical throws, and the third ball is thrown horizontally between the two hands. Its siteswap is 4,2x 2x,4 . The box pattern can be seen as a Shower juggling synchronous shower , which direction is changed at every throw. Variations Inverse Box In Inverse Box , the siteswap stays the same and two balls 4s are still thrown in straight lines, but the ball thrown from the right hand is going up and down on the left side and vice versa. This results in rather fast hand movements, because after the right hand has thrown ball up on the left side, both hands need to rush to the right so that the left hand can throw the next ball on the right side. Outside Box Outside Box is same as the original version, except that the fast horizontal 2x ball is thrown outside the landing vertical ball and caught outside the next thrown vertical ball. For visual appeal, the 2x should thrown as vertical as possible very easily its flight path becomes too arced and the trick loses its visual appeal. Luke s Shuffle Luke s Shuffle is a variation on the box in which the throws that are normally thrown horizontally are thrown diagonally downward. In this pattern, the siteswap stays the same, but the 2x throw involves carrying the ball up over the rising 4 throw. The ball is then thrown from above the 4 diagonally downward to the opposite hand. The resulting downward throw is often known as a shuffle, giving the trick its name. This trick was invented by Luke Jugglestruck Luke Gravett in 1991 and shown to Charlie Dancey who included it in his book. ref name Dancey Dancey, Charlie.
