Use this thread to discuss anything to do with 3 ball juggling.

I just started juggling the other day. I got the basic one ball hand to hand, two ball came easy. but three ball I am having trouble with it I can get the throw pattern but cant catch or continue the throw. I tried this for about two hours a day cant seem to get this. Is this a common thing for beginers to face?

I would need to see a few things such as what 2 ball pattern you learned and what kind of balls you are using. You mean the 2 ball pattern that is basically a cascade with a missing ball and not a 2 ball shower I assume. Can you hold all 3 of the balls you are using in 1 hand easily? this helps to make sure they aren't to big. Are you practicing the cascade side to side or front to back? side to side is the correct way and good underhand throws at a decent height are the best for beginning. Hope this helps.

if I cant hold all the balls in one hand then they are to big

Yes. generally speaking. at least until you are comfortable with the pattern. When I started I had a hard time with 3 russian balls for a few days until 3 was solid and easy and now I can do random objects of varying sizes without focusing on it. If you would like some balls I sell russian style balls in 2 sizes and 4 colors.

so i've just got into my juggling...have learned 3 ball cascade, pillars, mills mess, and just started on learning box (hopefully shower soon), and also picked up 4 ball cascade. what should i progress to next on 3 ball? is there something i should have covered already?
