A year in the making, Spark is unlike any juggling film you have ever or will ever see. A rare glimpse into the creative, inventive, and always humorous mind of Michael Karas reveals extraordinary new juggling ideas, both with traditional and innovative props. Spark celebrates that feeling of euphoria that washes over us when we conquer something new, that spine-tingling thrill of "eureka" when a new idea comes to life. 11 sections of creative and high energy prop manipulation keep the spark alive and contagious.

Top clips from the past 2 years of club creations. You may want to put on a helmet before watching this. So it doesn't make a mess when I blow your mind :)

I made this video because I wanted to try putting some effort into the production side of things and because I had a bunch of clips I wanted to show certain individuals. Because I had no one in particular in mind to show all of this stuff to, the video has an ADHD feel to it that I like. For the record, the juggling here is pretty respectably difficult, the straps are respectably intermediate, and the wheel stuff is laughably simple. This is in line with how often I practice each of them as well as the total length of time I've been working on each.

My August diabolo video. All tips welcome. Keep in mind I posted this about a month after It was fully edited. I'm good to make a tutorial for any trick at all!

Joe Kudabeck shows up with the kid from Elburn Illinois and blows our minds with 150+ catches of 6 ball mills and a couple of 5 up 360s into 5 ball contortion. This is just a small sample of the sick sick tricks he was doing! Thanks Joe!

A circus acrobat, Valentin took a bad fall and broke his back when he was seventeen. Dikul said no to the wheel-chair and painstakingly rehabilitated himself, largely with the help of his trusted kettlebells. But he did not stop there. He proceeded to become a great circus strongman juggling 80kg kettlebells and a powerlifter with mind-boggling lifts at sixty-something years of age!

This is yet another kinetic invention from the creative mind of Michael Karas, Pittsburgh-based juggler and performer. If you have ever played with a Whee-Lo (those magnetic wheel toys you can buy at The Cracker Barrel) you'll enjoy how Michael has taken it to the next level.
