| This program is designed for high
school and collage aged teenagers to do with their class. This
is program is appropriate to run as a club or class in and of itself, or
for use as the support and training portion of a larger club program when appropriate
in-house support is available. With
High school and collage aged students we start each session off with a 10
minute warm-up, conditioning and stretching session specific juggling and
manipulation arts. This serves to
help prevent injury, to help build strength & flexibility and to help
teach the importance of maintaining a healthy body. When appropriate,
we try to have students lead these warm-up sessions.
After the warm-up session we will typically teach a major skill of the
day. During this 30 minute session we teach students the ins and
outs of a specific juggling or manipulation skill. Please note that
the skills taught are dependant on the students in the program.
After the major skills of the day we have students break up to work on
the skills of their choice. During this time students may work on
any juggling or manipulation skill they choose to, while our instructors rove around, offering
training, guidance and advice where needed.
Students who take part in this class are
encouraged to learn basic ball, ring and club juggling, as well as basic
passing, and a basic understanding of other manipulation props. The
goal of this club is to promote a high level of skill within the student
body, and to instill a lifelong love of this physical
activity.
This program typically does not end with a
show.
