I had a great time at CJC 2002. I'd like to thank everyone that attended(especially Shifty, Ferret, and Twilight). I'd also like to thank Kae of contactjuggling.org. Without .org to bring this community together, I don't think that CJC would have gone as well as it did. Thank you Kae!

Contact Juggling is the art of rolling one or more balls across one's body(ball rolling) and/or spinning them in the hands(palmspinning). This description may seem to present contact juggling(CJ) as a very limited hobby. In fact, new tricks are being created every day.
Ball Rolling: This is the act of rolling one or more balls(usually 1, 2, or 3) over the body and hands. This form of CJ is usually presented in a flowing manner. I mostly practice this. Usually the first move people learn(including me) is the Butterfly.
Palmspinning: This kind of CJ can be mesmirizing if executed with variation. The basic technique involves spinning two or more balls in the palm of one hand. I find the two-ball palmspin(counter-clockwise) to be easiest.
Toss/Contact Juggling: Usually the difference between a CJ toss trick and a toss juggling trick is that a toss juggling trick can't be stopped at any moment. A CJ toss move has start and stop positions most of the time.
