Definitely, make sure to read all of Corinda and Annemann. After that check out the Secret Ways of Al Baker. Bob Cassidy's books are also must reads. There are many many excellent mentalism books-but it is very important that you start with the classics from which all the rest branch off from.

Lee Earle
Kenton Knepper
Darren Brown: Pure Effect

Read the works of these people including the material of the people that Dan had mentioned.
And remember when it comes to mentalism, It's not really what you do, but how you do it. Most of your focus should go towards you patter/presentation.

Will do it would be great if Theory11 had some mentalism artists or effects on like a 1on1

Most people here wouldn't know mentalism if it kicked them in the throat and Theory 11 know where there bread and butter is. That said, Bob Cassidy's Fundamentals is indeed a must-have. There is no better guide to the basics of mentalism performance theory.

With due respect to George, I think that was his point. Our videos are instructional... so the point is to teach them things that they don't already know. We do hope to bring a lot more mentalism to the site soon. Make way for Luke Jermay and Dan White to fix that. Definitely a goal over the coming year - we're on it.

I'll definitely wait for the mentalism to come on here.

j.bayme,

but single mentalism pieces would lead others into mentalism on the wrong foot, and if released would only provide a wrong starting step into mentalism. That's the whole point that Steerpike and DICER constantly stand by; that starting mentalism requires certain steps and material, not just jumping around and doing mentalism just because an effect looks good.

On a side note, Luke Jermay? Sounds awesome.
