Learn to juggle by numbers, with one, two or four hands, with or without the help of the computer.

We introduce the mathematical language used by jugglers worldwide to communicate, model and develop their routines since the 1980s.

The workshop will include hands-on practical sessions, both real and virtual. Design your own original juggling patterns and put them into practice!

Dr Andrew Tonks, a Senior Lecturer in Pure Mathematics from London Metropolitan University will be running these activities.

Places are still available. To book a place, please contact us at CSEoutreach@le.ac.uk
