Masterful juggling from one of the best. I held my breath through most of this, and am without words to describe how deeply this inspires. It is a masterpiece of expressive juggling, with a constant play between the various emotional states and a huge depth and range of techniques. I’m feeling it; Stefan is awesome.

Bravo!!!! and a standing ovation for bringing this to youtube in 1080p.

A recent video showcasing Mark’s practice sessions at the Katakomben in Berlin.

Mark doesn’t perform his juggling, so isn’t so well known to the masses, but I think he should be brought to more people’s attention.

The Best Skillz. innit.

More videos can be found on Stephen McGinley’s Youtube Profile. I highly recommend the 5 ball video, and eagerly await the four and three ball edits…

This is mad new style hooping, of yes, awesome. Not quite sure of the name of the girl yet, apart from Jane, been trying to find out if she was supposed to be at the Sydney Juggling Convention.

Anyway, she does mad awesome hooping on a pole, so that you get the low space underneath you, she uses that to great effect, makes the pole do hoop, does pancakes and beautiful juggling transitions and owns some of the old style Bob Branson hoop rolling… Epic, watch it.

I had not heard of Picaso Jr. til now, but apparently he was awarded the Silver Clown from the Festival du Cirque de Monte Carlo!

He does ping pong balls and paddle juggling as well as up to six plates in a shower type of pattern.

Looks like a great show!

This link is his act with his father Gran Picaso at the International Circus Festival of Budapest in which they won Bronze.

This guy has 4 stall points on the top of his head! As well as an interesting hairstyle… to accommodate stalls?

He also has that business of balancing a club on the top of his head.

New performance video released today of Stefan Sing. Watch the sequence he starts the three ball routine with. Very inspiring.

There is also a video called red tent that he just put out onto Youtube, which was previously only on his website. This video was the first one that I saw Stefan doing siteswaps which (not surprisingly) are very clean and lofty. Check em out.

Stefan Sing & Phillip Meyhoefer – juggling improvisation

Friday, January 1st, 2010

Juggling video hosted @ Juggling.tv

Improvised juggling by Stefan and Phillip, who know how to jam together better than anybody. If it isn’t playing at full-frame rate in the embedded player, then its worth the download from Juggling.tv (300mb .mov)

Posted for Tony Duncan, who has been cursing in the comments thread recently about the lack of juggling.
