The orbital isolation, as far as I know, is the easiest to learn. It involves a two-ball palm spin, where one of the balls is held as still as possible spatially.
To learn it, do it as slow as possible, always concentrating on the ball you want to stay still. When the ball moves down, move your hand up to compensate. If the ball mves left, move the hand right, etc.
Once you have learned in one direction, try in the other. Personally, I find anti-clockwise in the right hand to be the easiest.
A more difficult trick, which this is good practice for, is a one-ball isolation.
I believed I\'d invented this move myself, but was told by a fellow contact juggler that he\'d seen someone do it at a local convention, then I found that Michael Moschen used it in his own routine.
