The goal of this wiki is to provide a collection of juggling patterns, organized into "learning paths" that contain patterns of increasing difficulty. |
|||
== Theory == |
|||
a.k.a "what do all the numbers mean" |
|||
The wiki tries to answer the question: |
|||
* Entry point [[Siteswap]] |
|||
<center><b>"What should I try learning next?"</b></center> |
|||
and also: |
|||
<center><b>"I want to learn this (for me right now difficult) pattern, how do I get there"</b></center> |
|||
== Beginning Passing == |
|||
Teaching people passing clubs. |
|||
For the pattern labeled as "assymetric", one of passer is supposed to be far more advanced than the other, who needs no previous experience. |
|||
There are many other juggling resources, but most of them do either provide no difficulty rating - or neglegt that there is more than one type of difficulty that a juggling pattern can have. Here, I tried to group patterns with common traits and also a common set of difficulty-types. |
|||
It is not necessary to be able to juggle 3 clubs alone for the "beginner" side of the patterns. |
|||
Entry points are provided for each type of throw, as each kind of throw needs a different throwing technique. |
|||
=== Zaps // Candlestick throws === |
|||
These entry points are labeled as "Beginning with [...]" and primarily focus on building proficiency with a single throw type before progressing to more complex patterns that incorporate multiple throw types. |
|||
* [[ Throwing first Zaps ]] |
|||
* [[ zap zap zip ]] |
|||
* [[ 5-club 1-count with zaps ]] |
|||
<!-- |
|||
=== Normal Passes === |
|||
== Before All Else (TODO) == |
|||
* [[ 3 ball cascade]] |
|||
* [[ First Tricks with 3 balls]] |
|||
--> |
|||
== Entry Patterns == |
|||
* [[ Throwing the first normal passes ]] |
|||
These patterns are suitable for beginners. It helps a lot if one juggler is more experienced. All patterns only use one throw type (on the beginner side). Note that being suitable for beginners does not in all cases mean that these patterns are easy if you already have experience passing clubs. |
|||
* [[ Assymetric n-count vs 1-count ]] |
|||
* [[ 5-club 1-count ]] |
|||
* [[ 720 - zip-pass ]] |
|||
* [[ 5-club 2-count ]] |

The purpose of this wiki is to help you find the 1-3 new juggling patterns or tricks, that you want to try next. There are many resources on juggling patterns available on the net, but I often found myself overwhelmed by a long list of patterns of varying difficulty without a clear indicator on what single pattern to try out. |

== Difficulty == |

== Double Passes== |
|||
There is often no clear difficulty comparison between two patterns, because there is more than one type of difficulty in juggling. One can imagine them as difficulty dimensions - like axes on a coordinate system. A pattern can be easier than another one on one axis, but more difficult on another. |

Things that push your level back towards beginner: |

The Patterns I collected aren't so good trainings patterns, as we figured out when trying ourselves because in period 5, the double passes trigger each other, which makes the patterns unstable more quickly, as any bad double pass leads to another bad double pass and onto a downward spiral |

The goal of this wiki is to provide a collection of juggling patterns, organized into "learning paths" that contain patterns of increasing difficulty.
The wiki tries to answer the question:
and also:
There are many other juggling resources, but most of them do either provide no difficulty rating - or neglegt that there is more than one type of difficulty that a juggling pattern can have. Here, I tried to group patterns with common traits and also a common set of difficulty-types.
Entry points are provided for each type of throw, as each kind of throw needs a different throwing technique.
These entry points are labeled as "Beginning with [...]" and primarily focus on building proficiency with a single throw type before progressing to more complex patterns that incorporate multiple throw types.
Entry Patterns
These patterns are suitable for beginners. It helps a lot if one juggler is more experienced. All patterns only use one throw type (on the beginner side). Note that being suitable for beginners does not in all cases mean that these patterns are easy if you already have experience passing clubs.
