A short English-language instructional excerpt from a YouTube video by sociable-sophisticated that teaches a Level 2 juggling progression to unlock the Mills Mess pattern. The instructor focuses on using the odd-colored ball thrown under (vs. over), practicing under-throws on the right then left hand, developing forearm contact, adding body lean, and finding rhythmic beats to form Mills Mess.
Another simple level 2 skill. If you start with the odd colored ball. The odd colored ball I want to throw under. Sometimes you can also do it. Odd coloured ball you throw over. You can throw it just when it gets to the right. You can throw it every throw. But we're going to go under to get that ball. Boom. And if it goes every time, you start with just when it goes to the right hand under. Now I'm going to go left hand, left hand under, left hand under. But if we go every time then we arrive to this mills mess pattern. So once the under smooth then we're looking for forearm contact. Our forearms rest on each other. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. And then we can bring in a little bit more of leaning the body from one side to the other. Bit more artistic, finding the rhythm. You can make different beats. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Mills mess.
