Thats what I'm after doing as well, it would be good to hear the comments as
I'm the only one who contacts at our juggling club so a few bad habits may have crept in.

New Goals.

Since October has come and gone and in my tradition, Samhain or Halloween is the new year, I'd say its time for new goals.

Let's set the deadline at April.

April will be 10 months of CJ for me
By that time I hope to have

1) outer elbow stalls
2) chest, behind neck rolls
3) 4-5 multiball practice
4) a video that I don't hate (I have a few that I won't post LOL)
5) a business selling juggling supplies at local festivals and SCA events
(by the way, any tips anyone has would be helpful)

this sounds like a great idea, seeing as im so new to this, will help me aim for something...

1) butterfly well (with both hands)
2) palm spining
3) learn all the transfers

they're not the most adventurous targets i know, but better than i can do now, going to stay vaguely realistic

I am curious who had posted in may / june time a goal. And was actually able to keep with some of their goals, if not all.

Kitsune. Great idea. New Deadline.....APRIL.

I would say my goals are.

1) Just to stay with it. I have a tendency to let life get in the way. I would say that one of my main goals is just to keep CJing every other day, if not every day.

2) Teach my cats to do a head stall.

3) Toss into head stall......with acrylics...

4) 2b milti verse tai chi skip to ma lou rolls. (I dont know the name for it, so I just made one up. Will have vid as soon as I can do it.)

new deadline?

ok.....

-polishing my palmspinning (it's not too bad, just too far away from what I want)
-solid stalls (4 on the heads, iner and outside elbows, 11 I found on the fist, shoulders)
-polishing all my not-so-good moves

and finaly, getting some nice 4b moves...

I'll wish myself good luck, and to you all good play :D

Ok, for me.
1. Smooth out chest rolls so they don't pop off my shoulder. :)
2. Isolations! I want more!
3. The cage/prayer to smooth out.
4. Outer arm stall.
5. Slow down! :)

2. Complete chest roll
3. The cage stall
4. The cage butterfly
