Nearly everyone has tried to juggle at one point or another.  Whether it’s with apples, oranges, eggs, rocks, pencils, or anything else you happen to have laying around, it’s easy to start juggling.

But if you’re really going to start your quest to be a juggler, you should probably get some equipment.  Especially because it’s really not that expensive and it will help you learn a lot more quickly than fruit that could split open or rocks that probably aren’t equal weights.  On Amazon.com, you can get several types of juggling balls depending on what you’re looking for.  I link to several below.  As full disclosure, I would get a percentage of the sale if you purchase through my link.  But you certainly don’t have to do that!  You can go to Amazon.com and search for “juggling balls” if you prefer.  I would prefer you do that instead of think that I am doing this only to trick you to buy something.  Here are some good products:

Set of Juggling Balls – Lawn Games

World’s Best Juggling Ball Set

Duncan Toys Juggling Balls

Each of the products above should be balanced and about equal in weight, which will help when we start getting deeper into learning how to juggle.  But if you don’t want to purchase something right now, just make sure the balls you’re using are of about equal weight and preferably aren’t super bouncy where they will continue to bounce away when you drop them.  You’ll spend more time chasing after dropped balls than you will practicing juggling and that won’t be worth your time.
