How To Improve Your Juggling Skills/ Part2

Practice often- I would strongly recommend that you practice for at least 30 minutes per day. You also need to practice at least four to five times per week . If you can practice every day, that would be great. Practicing once or twice a week or once a month will not assist in you becoming a good juggler. Juggling must be done consistently.
I am not making this up- Back home in the jungle, I mean Trinidad, I used to practice juggling and other soccer tricks with the ball every single day. Before school, during lunch in school and after school. Although I am proficient at juggling now I still practice a few times a week.
At age 10 I was already juggling over 2000 with my feet. I felt that juggling with my feet was too easy so I started practicing with my head. Now, I feel like juggling with my head is easier than juggling with my feet. After a few weeks of serious practice you will notice that your juggling skills have improved. Some players will improve faster than others. The main things is don’t give up. Keep working hard. Set yourself a goal and attack it with full force.
Keep your focus on the ball- You must stay focused and concentrate on the task of juggling. Try not to get distracted while juggling.
Challenge yourself- Try to break your record every time you juggle. I always wanted to break my previous record and learn cool tricks which were one of my motivations to keep juggling. Each time you practice your juggling keep a count and always try to beat your old record. Never be satisfied if you juggle 25 or 55 times. Encourage yourself to do your best.
Relax- One of the most important things about juggling is to keep your body relaxed. Try not to be too stiff. The more you relax the better you will be able to juggle.
REMEMBER- You will struggle a bunch of times before you improve. So don’t give up.
