Vladimir Galchenko[1] (born September 15, 1987),[2] known as Vova,[1] is a juggler originally from Penza, Russia.[2]
Vova and his sister Olga moved to the United States in 2003, where they attended a workshop Jason Garfield was teaching in Reno, Nevada. Jason was impressed with their club passing skills and offered to help train them. After being trained by Jason, the Galchenkos became the best club passing team in the world,[3] broke four world records in club passing,[4][5] and won seven IJA and WJF club passing competitions.[6][7]
Vova won the IJA Individuals Stage Competition in 2008,[8] and the WJF Overall Championship in 2011.[9] He was on Luke Burrage's Top 40 Most Popular Jugglers chart every year from 2003 to 2013.[10] He ranked 2nd on the list in 2006.[11]
