Toss juggling, contact juggling, diabolo, yo-yo, kendama, whatever floats your boat.
To anyone reading this who never did any juggling at all, I recommend learning how to juggle a basic
3-ball cascade to see if this hobby is for you. It's easier than you might think. Note that this is different from the
shower pattern that you often see depicted in cartoons, which is a much harder trick than the cascade. I'm known to be clumsy and it took me about 10 hours of practice over the course of a week to get a cascade right. If you practice literally all day, you can learn it in one or two days.

It's a neat hobby that can be practiced
- without computers or the internet
- for any amount of time from 10 seconds to 10 hours
- alone or in pairs
- as a warm-up before a workout
- without having to invest a lot of money to get started
- has been shown to prevent age-related brain deterioration
