The World Juggling Federation was founded in 2000 out of a desire to expand public awareness of juggling as a sport. The goal was to produce juggling competition programming to air on a sports network. In 2004, the WJF secured their first five TV deals with ESPN and the shows aired in January of 2005. To produce these shows, WJF President and founder Jason Garfield began a global search for the world’s best jugglers and invited them all to compete. Jason Garfield had gained popularity in juggling since he entered the industry in 1986 at just 11 years old. Having accomplished the juggling of 10 balls, 10 rings and 7 clubs, Jason was well familiar with the highest level of juggling skill and wanted to raise the bar even further through competitions specifically designed for that purpose. In 2000, dissatisfied with the reputation that proceeded juggling wherever he went, Jason created plans for a venue that gave juggling the reputation he wanted it to be known for.

www.carbonated.tv It’s hard not to be mesmerized by Rick Malambri the star of Step Up 3D. With a towering 6-foot-2 figure and a well shaved look to make any lady weak in the knees, Rick Malambri is on top of his game, starring in the film franchise known to upstart the careers of Hollywood newcomers like Channing Tatum. As Rick relishes in the success of Step Up 3D, Carbonated TV sits down for a chat with the star who’s dancing in and out of life’s many complicated dimensions. The stars of the Step Up franchise usually come from an extensive background. The immense talent and formal dance training of each cast member is presented within the first five minutes of the film; however, Rick Malambri reveals his background was in acting when joining the film. According to Malambri, the film franchise wanted to evolve into a more mature storyline which demanded Malambri’s character to be the designated leader rather than the head dancer. Naturally, more character development was needed rather than dancing expertise. But the experience he does bring comes from being a lifelong self-learner. Malambri would watch dance videos online with friends and then breakdance in the streets. Step Up 3D Cast: Rick Malambri, Adam G. Sevani, Sharni Vinson, Alyson Stoner, Keith Stallworth, Kendra Andrews, Stephen “Twitch” Boss, Joe Slaughter
