What is "contact juggling"?
Contact juggling is a performance art where an individual manipulates one or more spheres, usually made of acrylic or glass, by rolling and balancing them over their body. The performer creates a fluid, mesmerizing display by moving the spheres smoothly across their arms, hands, and body, making it appear as though the spheres are gliding or floating. This art form requires exceptional skill and control to maintain the illusion of seamless movement and to execute intricate tricks and patterns. Contact juggling is often featured in circus acts, street performances, and variety shows, showcasing the performer’s grace and dexterity.
