Juggling Therapy is a FUN approach to improving one's mental, emotional
and of course physical well-being. It is form of "Movement Meditation" that works to balance both hemispheres
of the brain (right brain & left brain) to improve motor-skill functions, reading, writing, creativity, self-esteem,
self-confidence, self-motivation, focus on tasks, multi-tasking. It can help combat and prevent the development of Anxiety,
Alzheimer's, depression and a host of other mental and emotional diseases.
One can use juggling
to learn how to break big problems into smaller ones and smaller steps. It can be used in math, in story telling and a host
of other school projects.
It is a CARDIOVASCULAR EXERCISE that is actually fun to do, and is
very safe for the joints of the body! It increases blood flow not just in the limbs but to your brain.
Juggling is a Neuromuscular phenomenon! Muscle has memory, and as the body learns to juggle, it memorizes space and
timing of where the objects must be to catch them. As you can see from the videos, any age can start learning
to juggle! There is no age limit! There are many types of juggling skills that people can learn. All things that seemed impossible
before, soon seem very much possible! Juggling expands the mind beyond your previous limits! This carries into other events
and roadblocks in your life!
Many people think they are too old, too young, too uncoordinated.
the truth is, you don't need coordination to start, BUT! You WILL start to develop it! What you do need is persistance
to practice and at least 3 bean bags.
Juggling Therapy Program - You will receive 4 1-hour sessions - Our program
is actually teaching you the basic patterns of juggling and letting you learn at your own pace! We then turn from teacher
to coach, so that when you need a "pick-me-up" we'll give you that encouragement to keep practicing. We can
watch your methods, make sure you are progressing. If you have problems such as the balls fly all over the place, we will
guide you in correcting these habits. We will also watch your posture and biomechanics so you do not pick up bad habits.
The 4 -1hour sessions allows us to track your improvement and learning process and make adjustments along the way.
We will spend time with you. We want you to have fun, if you are not having fun, you won't want to continue to practice!
Once we feel you have learned this skill enough to continue on your own, it is up to you to
keep practicing at home and using it for beneficial purposes. We will also direct you to some resources that you can use to
get in touch with people in the area you can practice with.
You may bring a family member to join you
in these lessons. Please let us know in advance, who is coming, so we can prepare. While we can provide props during in-office
lessons, you will need a set for home so you can practice. Use the Dube banner ads on this page to purchase props.
