Hi guys!
We did mention in our previous post that we are working on something that is very close to our hearts.
As juggling enthusiasts, we hope to introduce more people to this very fun, addictive, artistic sports that we call 'Juggling'. Having taught circus arts workshops in schools, we have seen first-hand for ourselves how youths can benefit from learning to juggle, in terms of focus, concentration, perseverance, hand-eye coordination, and even academic results. We sincerely hope more youths are exposed to this non-competitive and self-challenging physical activity.
At the same time, juggling is simply good for everybody. We envision a Singapore where almost anyone can pick up 3 balls and start juggling. How many of you have experiences with overseas friends from America, Britain, Japan, Taiwan, European countries (just to name a few) who can juggle a little? We have, many times. Most of the time, they tell us "Oh, it's just a hobby" or "I learnt it in school when I was young". Wow, how cool is that?!
We finally decided that it's time to turn our vision into reality. If other countries can have juggling festivals and conventions that attract thousands of participants each year, so can Singapore. Well, maybe not thousands, yet.
After weeeeeks of planning, meetings, fighting...discussion I mean, we are now very proud and excited to announce that we are bringing to you the first juggling festival in Singapore!
Child's Play PAssion Juggling Festival 2012 will be happening from 26 to 27 May 2012, Saturday and Sunday, at Bishan CC.

For non-jugglers and beginners, you simply have to come! This is your chance to learn from other jugglers! Do not worry, jugglers are a friendly lot!
There will be a variety of workshops for different props, catered to different skill levels. Again, do keep up with our updates on

A juggling festival is incomplete without performances. We are really excited about our Gala Show on Sunday evening as some of our favourite performers will be here!
