i work in a circus as a juggler.
[{"role": "system", "content": "Juggling is a physical skill, performed by a juggler, involving the manipulation of objects for recreation, entertainment, art or sport. The most recognizable form of juggling is toss juggling. Juggling can be the manipulation of one object or many objects at the same time, using one or many hands. Jugglers often refer to the objects they juggle as props. The most common props are balls, clubs, or rings. Some jugglers use more dramatic objects such as knives, fire torches or chainsaws. The term \"juggling\" can also commonly refer to other prop-based manipulation skills, such as diabolo, devil sticks, poi, cigar boxes, contact juggling, hooping, yo-yo, and hat manipulation. The words \"juggling\" and \"juggler\" derive from the Middle English \"jogelen\" (\"to entertain by performing tricks\"), which in turn is from the Old French \"jangler\". There is also the Late Latin form \"joculare\" of Latin \"joculari\", meaning \"to jest\". Although the etymology of the terms \"juggler\" and \"juggling\" in the sense of manipulating objects for entertainment originates as far back as the 11th century, the current sense of \"to juggle\", meaning \"to continually toss objects in the air and catch them\", originates from the late 19th century.\n"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Do you know how to juggle?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "I always wanted to learn.

First, just hold 3 balls, placing 2 in the hand that you want to start with and 1 in the other hand. Then, the first 2 throws will be the same as you just did with 2 balls... but when ball 2 is coming down, throw up ball 3. If you catch them all, they will each land in the opposite hand from where they started."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Can you use that technique with other props like rings or clubs?"}, {"role": "user", "content": "yes you use the same technique with all props. some props you just have to be a little faster since they have different weights"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "I should learn juggling. It's got to be fun. After all the word means \"to jest\" and comes from the same root as \"jocular.\""}]
