My name is Thom, and I’m an author for Modern Vaudeville Press. My most recent titles are Juggling: From Antiquity to the Middle Ages and Juggling: What It Is and How to Do It.

While working on these projects, I wrote a chapter about the effects juggling has on the practitioner’s mind and body. There’s a lot of great research into our artform as an example of complex motor learning, but most of these papers lie in academic journals that aren’t read by jugglers! This eBook aims to solve that problem.

My editor thought that this section was good, but wanted me to strip it down from fifteen pages to a single sheet. Juggling: What It Is and How to Do It covers the basics, but I wanted to make sure the most complete version of this information would be read by my friends around the world.
