A juggler is someone who is capable of keeping several objects in the air simultaneously. The most common props or objects that jugglers use are balls, clubs or rings but can be extended to knives, fire torches or even chainsaws. There are a variety of juggling methods to learn, and the most important part of acquiring juggling skills is continuous practice that can take hours, weeks, months or even years to master. The venues for jugglers vary, from festivals and fairs, to the circus, the theatre, casinos and street performances. 1, record 2, English, - juggler

Lorsqu'il jongle avec plusieurs balles, un jongleur est confronté à la complexité d'une tâche multiple. Ici, le premier lancer de balle perturbe le second. Il s'agit donc de comprendre que le jongleur ne doit effectuer qu'une action à la fois, qu'un seul lancer d'engin pour réussir sa prestation. 1, record 2, French, - jongleur
