"The illusion created is one of a free-floating， weightless ball， subject to unusual laws of motion. A good contact juggler can make his own movements seem almost unrelated to the movements of the ball; the attention of the audience is always fixed on the ball. Contact juggling is， above all， graceful and absorbing."– James Ernest， Contact Juggling Pioneer and Author Contact Juggling， also referred to asCJorDynamic Manipulation， is the art of manipulating one or more objects while keeping them in contact with your body. In Contact Juggling， balls are rolled over the hands and body invisually interesting patternsinstead of being tossed in the air. Contact Jugglers perform with a wide variety of objects from pens to basketballs (Harlem Globtrotters)， but the most popular object is the 3" acrylic ball.

Indeed， good Contact Juggling looks a lot like magic. On This DVD You'll Learn：
