Contact juggling is the art of juggling without letting the balls leave contact with one's body. Instead, they are rolled around each other (palmspinning), or along the arms and body (bodyrolling).

Alternatively, 'still ball' or 'isolations' which use a solid coloured, or often transparent ball, involve the movement of the hands or arms around the ball, whilst the ball remains stationary. This gives the impression that the ball is fixed to the spot.

Contact juggling in its modern popular form originated with a juggling routine developed by Michael Moschen. Some of the various single ball manipulations (headrolls, for example) existed long before that, but many one and multiple ball manipulations (palmspinning) were developed by Moschen. It was also Moschen who pioneered the use of transparent "crystal" balls.
