Brief Biographical Sketch:

Hailing from a musical household in Cleveland, Ohio, Aric has had a passion for performing arts since potty training that became his full-time occupation during a gap year last year. Though his main focus is now academics (especially math and physics), he continues to kindle that passion as a member of Stanford hip-hop dance and a cappella groups. Aric found the perfect middle ground between the dorky and the showy when he learned to juggle in fifth grade, and he has enjoyed learning new patterns and teaching them to others ever since. He could not be more thrilled to share one of his favorite hobbies during Splash 2015!

H4663: Cirque du Stanford: Juggling 101 in Splash Fall 2015 (Nov. 07 - 08, 2015)
Improving your hand-eye coordination, focus, dexterity and physical strength might sound like difficult tasks, but you can do it all while having a blast by learning to juggle! By the end of this class, you will have mastered the basic 3-ball pattern, and made your own set of juggling balls so you can perfect your skills at home. Plus, a brief presentation/demonstration by the instructors will introduce you to more advanced styles of juggling, and (hopefully) inspire you to keep practicing one of the oldest forms of recreation and entertainment in existence.
