As part of the Lifelong Learning Festival and in partnership with Douglas Street Business Association, we are inviting people of all ages and abilities to join us for a morning of social connection through fun, play, and accessible juggling.
What is Accessible Juggling?
Accessible juggling, also known as Functional Juggling, is a method created by Craig Quat that makes juggling inclusive for everyone, regardless of physical or mental abilities. The pedagogy focuses on the core relationships of space, rhythm, and movement rather than complex tricks, using adapted tools like juggle boards for social connection, developing coordination, concentration, and creativity. It redefines juggling as a universal practice, allowing people of all abilities and ages to participate and connect through shared movement and sensory experiences, including using everyday objects.
This panel is funded by the Arts Council of Ireland, and supported by Promenade and The Everyman Theatre
