Marie-Line Doyon -

Hi everyone ! My friend recommended I joined this awesome community, and share the event I've been working on for the past months <3
My name is Marie, and I run a small non-profit organisation aiming to promote the love of circus, as well as sharing skills and knowledge as a community!

We are throwing our 2nd edition of TriFlow Fest, a circus and flow arts festival that takes place June 16-18 in the province of Quebec, in St-Fortunat (South of the province, pretty close from the US border).
Our 1st edition took place in 2018, and was absolutely AWESOME. We can't wait to throw this event again in just a few weeks.

TriFlow Fest is an outdoor/camping festival of 3 days. There will be a total of 80 workshops offered during the weekend (of which 11 are focused on juggling and club passing), as well as music in the evening until 2AM, fire circles, and an open stage show on Saturday. Its a bilingual festival (bonjour!), all levels of skills and all circus disciplines welcome <3 Our schedule will be coming out pretty soon on our Facebook event and website.

Let me know if you have any question, Ill be happy to chat and connect!
Enjoy the weekend miawmiawmiaw

Hi Mïark, thank you! No not every 5 years hopefully :) We were supposed to only take a one year break before doing our 2nd edition, but then the pandemic happened and regulations were pretty rigid around here, so that took an unexpected turn. We're pretty stoked to be able to gather again this year :) Hopefully we can make it happen every year, or once every two years, we aren't 100% set on the frequence yet!

It's been a while since I've last posted here, but I got something fun to share!

Together with Sylvain Garnavault I made a toy to explore siteswaps. And you can get one!
They will cost about €25 and I can bring some to EJC. Let me know in the comments if you're interested, or send me an email (hello@danielsimu.com) , so we know how many to make!

Thanks for watching 🙂

Oh now that’s fun! I like that a lot… I don’t juggle enough any more to justify getting myself one, but if I did I’d be all over that!

Hello,

My name is Ben and I juggle 3,4,5 and 6 balls. My instagram is @dropthebom. I am focused on practicing 5 ball excited state siteswaps right now, and 6 ball basic siteswap. I also practice a little 7 and 8. I have done a fair bit with 3 and 4 ball box tricks and bodythrows. I spend a lot of time thinking about siteswap.

Hello everyone

My name is John Bradford and I am fairly new to the juggling scene. I started going along to East London Circus Hug at Limehouse Old Town Hall in January after meeting some people at the Thames-side Gabriel's Warf Burn at the start of the year. I have made a bit of progress over the last few months particularly on fire staff, I also am learning Poi and LED 'wand', this has sometimes been a bit of a challenge with my somewhat impaired vision. I am particularly interested in looking at how our juggling performance can be enhanced by various meditation practices, particularly the four Metta based 'Positive Emotion' practices involving visualizing various people and wishing them well.

I run occasional meditation and practice workshops at ELCH on Wednesday evenings and have set up a weekend workshop for 10th and 11th June which I am adding to the Circus Edge calendar of events. You can find out more at my website: www.positivemotion.me

Best Wishes

John

EJC 2023 is going to be in Lublin!

European Juggling Convention 2023

EJC 2023 IS ON!
We are going to… LUBLIN!
We are extremely happy to inform you that European Juggling Convention will be coming for the third time to the beautiful city of Lublin (Poland). The dates stay as planned: 29.07-06.08, and the pre-reg is starting very soon!
After a very intense period of work, Fundacja Sztukmistrze (the same team behind EJC 2012 and 2017) have secured the same venue as the previous conventions within a beautiful park, with large halls (combined 11 000 square meters!) and an awesome gala venue.
What is more - the EJC has official backing from the City of Lublin!
The Polish team will be now working with the Irish team to join forces and give you the best EJC possible. And it is looking good!
And remember - WE ALL ARE THE EJC! WE ALL HAVE TO COME TO LUBLIN THIS YEAR! So start searching for trains and flights (there is an airport in Lublin!) and put money aside for the convention week ticket which will become available to get very soon! And super important: make other people know! Share! Advertise! Support the EJC! We need you more than ever! MAKE IT HAPPEN WITH US!
Do zobaczenia w Lublinie!
(See you all in Lublin!)

Jugglequip Infinities

After a break lasting several years, I'm slowly picking up juggling again. I'll be buying a new set of beanbags and have been wondering if anyone here owns Jugglequip Infinities and could share some feedback.

My sessions mostly consisted of 4 and 5 ball siteswaps, and I could do ~100 catches of 7 ball cascade more or less consistently. I don't expect to go beyond 7 balls, with the focus on 5 (maybe 6) ball siteswaps.

I owned a set of Gballz (66.675mm, 115g) and they were phenomenal, but the leather fell apart after 1-2 years of use. I've only now read they are not supposed to be used outside, which is where I juggle most of the time.
At some point I purchased a set of Juggle Dream Mini Uglies (50mm, 70g) but was never satisfied with them. I wanted to try something lighter for drilling 7 balls but they never felt consistent, with noticeably different shapes even when new.

Anyway, I want to try out Infinities but am not sure about the fill percentage (I'm assuming 90-95%), or size for that matter (64/67mm). I would like for them to feel similar to Gballz and keep them between 100-115 grams.

Any comments from anyone with hands on experience with them (or with the impact of ~100g vs ~115g) or any other relevant information would be greatly appreciated :)
