 Whole heartedly agree Rozi, I went to SJC barely being able to hold down a 3-ball pattern... I still enjoyed myself and picked up heaps of new skills... (Still can't get mill's mess *Curses and mutters to self*) And if some of the people that came to SJC come to MJC there'll be plenty of poi,staff and various other toys and skills going around... You won't regret coming...

I'm glad that there seems to be some (lots!) of interest in the Melb convention - nice one! I'm working hard to make it an everything-goes convention including ALL abilities in ALL areas... so please do come along! It's going to be lots of fun, just like the SJC. Update: Several high-quality acts have been secured for the public show  and people are signing up to the workshop list already - including Poi, Diabolo, Staff, and of course, juggling. Keep posting your thoughts here - any requests/questions welcome.  Christian.

That'd probably be one question for Christian... It'd depend on the Venue and their policy on fire...

Unfortunately, Fire is not an option at the MJC this year - it's the first convention of it's kind in Melbourne so money is very limited, and insurance is incredibly expensive. The plan is to start small and slowly grow the convention, introducing more and more elements -hopefully next year fire twirling can be an option. this year, however, it's just not worth doubling the ticket cost for just that one event...

 You're the source of the foot dance! Thats practically the same one as the Scouts version (I think they put in another right outsides after the left kick behind)! That's awesome!

Speaking of Photos... I have set up a folder on our melb uni site for convention photos. Anyone can put their pics in here, you don't need to belong to the site. Just please be considerate with file sizes as we don't have unlimited hosting space, and shrink large photos before uploading. http://www.juggling-club.com/gallery2/ma...navId=x5fcd1a71
