- How to Juggle 4 Clubs
Before learning to juggle with 4 clubs, it is essential that you can at least have a solid 3 club cascade pattern. This will get you used to juggling with clubs as well as getting the right spin, accuracy, and timing. The other strong suggestion is that you learn to juggle with 4 balls, as this will help you get used to the pattern, the accuracy, and the timing.
Explanation by Hunter Nuttall
The fountain is the first four club pattern you should learn. Learning columns before the fountain would be like learning the three ball reverse cascade before the cascade - it's not necessarily harder, it's just not the real way to do it.
You should first be able to do three clubs with double spins. Take a club and throw it higher than normal so that it spins more. You might find yourself wondering "how am I supposed to know if that was a double or a triple?" But if it's not a single and you catch the right end, rest assured that it's a double. Make sure you're just throwing the club higher, not spinning it faster; otherwise your throws won't get solid as quickly.
When you can throw consistent doubles with both hands, you can do a cascade with doubles. Rather than starting with doubles, get a cascade going with singles first, then start throwing doubles. This will keep you from having to deal with the tricky start for now (throwing a double from a hand that's holding two clubs).
After you can go from a cascade with singles to a cascade with doubles and sustain it for a bit, learn to start going directly into doubles. Put two clubs in your dominant hand and try to throw one of the clubs with a double spin. It will seem to require much more force to throw a double while holding a second club in the same hand, but it will soon feel natural. Now put two clubs in your subordinate hand and try the same thing. When you can start a cascade with double spins from either hand, you are ready to learn two clubs in one hand with doubles.
One of the first things you will notice about two clubs in one hand is that it's a great way to get smacked in the wrists. Bruised wrists and numbness in the hands are common side effects of learning four clubs, but they can be prevented with a little care. You'll want to take off your watch, and you should angle your hands slightly inwards so that you catch each club with its handle parallel to your forearm, but not touching it. This is one way of preventing the knobs from hitting your wrists. Alternatively, you can protect your wrists by pointing the clubs at an angle to the outside, thus pointing the knobs toward your body and away from your wrists. I use the first method, but do whatever feels right for you.
When you're learning two in one hand, don't worry about trying to finish cleanly. It will be much easier to learn to stop later on, after your throws become more controlled. I didn't get a clean flash with four clubs until I could get 30 catches. For now, just catch one club in each hand when you want to stop, or let one fall to the ground. After two in one hand starts to feel comfortable, you can go ahead and try four once in a while, but keep working on two in one hand until you get about 100 catches with each hand.
Unless you have very high-quality clubs, you will probably get bruises on the palm side of your knuckles, your fingertips, and the base of your thumb. The pain can be a limiting factor in how long you can practice, but it will disappear as your throws get smoother. Practicing in short sessions (~15 min) in the beginning stages is a good way to minimize the chance of painful injury.
Work on both the synchronous and asynchronous fountains, and remember to use plenty of scoop in order to prevent collisions. Four clubs is a great thing to watch, so keep at it. It's definitely easier than five balls.
I was literally practising 4 clubs about 10 minutes ago thinking how is this possible. Opened youtube and found this. Thank you so much. Very helpful.
Perfect timing!
I’d just like to say, thank you Niels. I went from juggling 2 balls, to juggling 3 balls, to juggling 4 balls thanks to you. 🙂
That is great! Thanks for letting me know!
@@NielsDuinker Yw 😁
I really enjoy watching your tutorial videos. They have certainly helped me to improve my technique and I would like to compliment you on the way you present these instructions in such a clear and enjoyable way. I'm also quite amazed at how skilled you are (or have become) at juggling.
Groeten uit België. ;)
Hi Niels, you are the best teacher. Thank you for your videos
Thank you!!
Neils you are a god I worship you daily
Thanks for following my videos and career!
I'd love to.
I'm looking forward to it.
I'm not good at 4 clubs.
Thanks! I hope you will get some good tips from this video! You will be able to be better at 4 clubs in no time!
Niels, you should create a discord server.
Hi Niels I am 11 years old and I am interested in buying some juggling rings. Which rings do you recommend for juggling from 3-6 rings.
Hello Jitesh, The perfect ring for you depends a bit on your body type and strength. Overall Dube Airflite rings and Play Juggling rings are a safe bet.
I've been juggling clubs since I was 14 years old, i turn 17 this december! Getting knew clubs, so I'm excited to see if I can do 4!
Great class! ✊🏽🙌🏽💪🏽 thank you!!!
Neils, you taught me everything i know, thankyou
Thanks for following me!!
Niice thank you, subscribed❤
I love ur juggling bro awesome job u doing
Thanks!
Love this Niels 👏👏👏
Thanks!!
U r great.. Bro 😀😀👌❤🙏
I think I am ready for 4 clubs but I can’t hold 2 clubs in my left hand
I can explain that in this video
Thank you Niels! Your pattern is so low with doubles...does it matter that youre using short handles? I have long handles short body and my pattern gets naturally much higher. Maybe wrist training needed?
You’re amazing!
Thanks
Hi, thanks for the tips in the video, I know 3 4 5 6 balls juggling and now 4 clubs, can you put out a video for bbb juggling? Second thing what do you suggest for me to continue in juggling
Please take a look at the various videos I have produced and if nothing peaks your interest in those videos, please shoot me a message
Yes, I have seen them and know how to do most of them. Thank you very much!!! (maybe you can make a video how to juggle 5 balls on a unicycle)
i know 3 balls, 3 clubs, 4 balls, 5 ball flash and i want to learn 4 clubs but i don't have them yet but I'm going to i would like to join your discord if you have one
Thank you! I dont have a discord, but you can subscribe here for new tutorials or follow me on www.cirqo.co
Scissors please, Niels.
For some reason I had better runs with 4-club singles than doubles. I think it is usually the opposite.
Are double spins easier when it comes to 4 clubs or single which would u start with
double spins give you a little bit more hight which helps when you start juggling 4 clubs
Please let me know if you have any good tips to practice the first and second rounds of the 4 clubs. a throw height or back
Thanks Niels. Why do we do 2 spins of the club instead of 1? Thankyou
You can do the same patterns with single spins. I have found that double spins give you the best amount of time when starting out. After I could do this in double spins I dropped down to single spins.
@@NielsDuinker I found singles easier, probably because of my low ceiling
@@fireburst1760 good choice
Lear us 5 clubs single spin, bro.
