The goal of this wiki is to provide a collection of juggling patterns, organized into "learning paths" that contain patterns of increasing difficulty. |

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. |

== Entry Patterns == |
|||
These patterns are suitable for beginners. It helps a lot if one juggler is more experienced and can throw very nice, high and slow passes. 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 in e.g. 4-count, 3-count, 2-count. These patterns tolerate much faster and lower passes than the patterns here. Also, the pattern sequences here will often feel complex if you only did a lot of n-count type patterns until you get used to them. |

== Difficulty == |

<!-- Note on galleries: caption text must follow the pipe symbol without a space, else this is interpreted as a line starting with space and becomes preformatted text that way --> |
|||
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. |

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 and can throw very nice, high and slow passes. 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 in e.g. 4-count, 3-count, 2-count. These patterns tolerate much faster and lower passes than the patterns here. Also, the pattern sequences here will often feel complex if you only did a lot of n-count type patterns until you get used to them.
