Contact Juggler: Michael Moschen

Some of you may recognise his hand work as the contact juggling hands of Jareth from Labyrinth (1986).

Michael Moschen is THE reason I became *obsessed* with contact juggling when I was a kid.
And the way he moves is just pure body poetry.




And as an added bonus, my other favourite juggler/acrobat, Viktor Kee from Cirque du Soleil's Dralion. If Moschen is poetry, this guy is fucking rock and roll.

Those were amazing. That Kee guy is just 100% muscle, I can't even imagine how much work he has to do to maintain that amount of control.

I'm glad you enjoyed them! Oh man, Viktor Kee is nuts. I don't even want to think about how much he practises and works. Craaaazy. I saw Dralion back in SF in like 1999 or 2000 (that taping is actually from the SF show amusingly), and he just blew my freaking mind.
