thinking about teaching an elective class next semester on juggling (perhaps the last remaining item in my rapidly diminishing skill set). I understand a fair number of jugglers have tried things like this before so I wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions. Classes are 90 minutes long, once a week, and we'll probably get about 12 weeks. I was thinking of starting with a "how to make your own juggling balls" workshop to start, just so everyone could own their own props, then begin with 3 ball juggling the next week. Any thoughts on a good direction to progress from there? I know the juggling learning curve varies wildly depending on the learner, so I especially welcome any ideas for evaluation schemes; I'd like to reward them for increasing the number of catches or tricks they can manage but I also don't want to leave anyone out in the dust. -Gus Other posts:
