I'd like to know if there is some kind of juggling association or jugglers meeting in HK, as we can find in Europe or in the US. I tried to search on the Internet but I found nothing. Is there also some juggling store where I could buy thing like juggling clubs, because I could not bring mine in HK.
And if there are any jugglers on this forum, we could have some passing sessions!

Are you with Disney by any chance?

Not at all. I am having an internship at the chinese university of hong kong, and I am juggling just for fun, as a hobbie.

There is a Dutch/Brit guy with dreads who hangs out in the arcade at Kowloon Tong station (Festival Walk). He has been Juggling since the late 80's and is still around. You should try and hook up with him if you can. His name is Jan.

Sorry, couldn't stop myself.

When I start a session, I usually juggle for one or two hours.
Do you juggle alone or is there some kind of meeting with several other jugglers?

If there are some people interested, I found some guys who are juggling every Monday evening in Kwai Fong

Hi , I work as a professional entertainer (comedy magic , juggling)here in HK
Here's the scene:
1/ There a meeting of the Kelly circus school once a month. The standard is pretty low and I kinda never go. No one can even throw a decent pass.
2/ There is a unicycle hockey club that meets every monday night (http://www.hkcrystal.com/unicycling/) . Not really juggling but most of us do both. This is a lot of fun. See the web site.
3/ Theres few really good jugglers in Hk. Jan , Francios and an amazing diablo guy called Minjay are the core group (and me) out of the Expats. I havent come across any good chinese pros.
4/ Theres no juggling supply shop like what your after. Most here do mail order from Juggleart in Australia (www.juggleart.com).
5/ A side note , magic is a lot bigger here. A few shops and many magicians.
I'm willing to have a pass with you and I'd like to hear about the juggling meeting you found.

If your into magic at all , there a magic convention happening in August (http://www.eddysmagic.com/limited.htm) - keep checking the web site , the details will be up soon - this is my boss.
Think that about covers it.
