Learn to Juggle! Workshops

“I can do this!” Juggling is a wonderful skill to learn and children are amazed when they discover that they can juggle!  What at first seems magical, when broken down into steps, juggling becomes a metaphor for learning anything new.  All you need is practice!  And, dropping is just part of the fun!
