China also has other forms of juggling. Xiong Yiliao, an ancient Chu warrior, was said to have practiced nongwan (the art of throwing multiple objects up and then down, without dropping them).

The evidence of juggling is now found in Greece, Rome, Medieval Europe, and the modern-day. The Native Americans have a long history of traditional juggling. There is even evidence that cultures used their feet to juggle. It is somewhat surprising that the International Jugglers Association was not formed until 1947.

Juggling fell after the fall of Rome, and the chaos of Dark Ages. It is not known if anyone has ever been caught doing the activity anywhere else in the world. There was an era of revival in the early renaissance. European explorers reported that they saw highly skilled jugglers in South Asia’s Hindu lands and Mexico in New World in the 14th and 15th centuries. Even the Aztecs appear to have a tradition of juggling.

Europe had been a poor place for juggling, but the world changed in 1680 when Nuremberg was established. There was a Town Council that established the first “ball master”, a paid person who offered their services similar to a court jester. The professional would combine juggling with other acrobatic tricks such as rope walking, a bit like being a clown.

These early jugglers improved their skills over the years and were able to make their shows more entertaining. In the 1700s, The Incomparable Depuis Рa French ball master – took things to a whole new level. His routine consisted of juggling apples and walking on a tightrope. He then threw them up in the air and skewer them with forks once they landed. One apple was in his mouth.

Juggling was a common activity in circuses by the turn of the 18th century. Local audiences would be amazed by the feats of control and ball skill that traveling bands could pull off, often combining them with other acts. Juggling quickly became a diverse art form that allowed people to experiment with other objects. Jugglers are often in the entertainment business, so there was always a need for new and exciting objects to juggle. In the end, circus-goers began to expect knives and burning torches to be a regular part of their routine.

However, juggling didn’t stay popular in the modern age. After the invention of cinema, the popularity of juggling declined. People could see all they wanted on the big-screen, and didn’t have to attend a live performance. This led to the decline of circuses and variety shows.

In the 1950s, things started to improve. Juggling was a popular pastime after WWII. People have gone to greater lengths to juggle.
