The goal of this wiki is to offer "learning paths", starting with simple juggling patterns and then offering a suggestion for a few patterns with increasing difficulty.

BUT: There is more than one type of difficulty and so there is more than one starting point. (For example being able to pass 7 clubs in a 2-count will not help you much in doing a 3 ball Mill's Mess)

Each throw type has its own type of difficulty, as has combining different throw types, as has remembering and executing longer pattern sequences of different throws.

The exercises below try to start with different patterns that use only one throw type (and zips). And only when that throw has been practiced in different patterns tries to mix it with a different throw type.

Beginning with one type of throw

Beginning Zaps

"No turn" passes. It is not necessary to be able to juggle 3 clubs alone

Beginning Normal Single Passes

Pass to another person, the club turns once until caught.

if one juggler is more experieced, mixed-difficulty patterns are provided.
It is not necessary to be able to juggle 3 clubs alone

Next difficulty: "Selfless Passing" or "Selfs and Passes"

Beginning Selfs - aka Juggling 3 Clubs

From the 3 ball cascade to juggling 3 clubs

Selfless Passing

Only zips and passes - continues with "throwing only passes"
Starts with 4 clubs (4 passes, 3 zips) and ends with 7-clubs and only passes.

First Zaps and Selfs

Selfs and Passes

First Training Patterns

6 club Half-Synchronous patterns (right hand of both jugglers throws at the same time), a.k.a "normal passing":

"Jim's" version of those patterns:

Double Passes

early double - in 4-count, 3-count, 2-count, etc?
late double - in 4-count, 3-count, 2-count
Throwing the first double passes - self-pass
96622 - dpass self zip self zip

Heffs in Solo Patterns - 4 club exercises

Recommended solo-patterns before you start:

solo 423
solo 40 - two clubs in one hand with doubles
solo 441
solo 4 clubs with doubles

Heffs in Passing Patterns

Tricks, typically done in 4-count, 3-count, etc.

First patterns with a heff - 5 club why nots

The why not family - 6 clubs:

7 club why nots:

Double Selfs in Solo Patterns // Learning the 5 Ball Cascade

The "normal" 5 club cascade is juggled with double selfs. Usually long before that you learn to juggle 5 balls.

The patterns for practicing double selfs and for preparing you for each 5-object pattern are mostly the same.

Triple Selfs in Solo Patterns

Popcorns (Heffs or Triple selfs)

Doubles vs Passes

Here Be Dragons

A dragon is a double pass followed by a zap. They both arrive at the same hand, the zap first.
