    Hello everyone! I have a few questions.

    While mark wilsons course is WONDERFUL for a beginner, I'll also add in that you couldn't go wrong with Tarbell's course in magic, or Card College if you're only focusing on card tricks. As for beginning tricks, I highly recommend the Linking Rings, Cups and Balls, or Three Shell Game. All...

    Inspiring Dreams

    What is our job? A simple question I know, but really have you sat down to really ponder it? Have you taken the time to truly consider what it is to be a magician? I'm not talking about the metaphorical sense, we could stay on that subject for hours. I'm talking about the practical...

    I don't vibe well at all with your negative reactions J. If you would have bothered to read anything I've posted about this effect by now then you'd know that refills are 10 refills for 20$. Each refill will produce between 30 to 40 puffs of smoke. You don't have to be so negative about the...

    Best all performance card control?

    Without risk there is no gain. Nothing great was ever won by sitting safely on the sidelines. No victory was ever worth not applying the slightest effort to achieve.

    rejection: how do you handle it?

    Blake- Rejection is something you're going to learn to deal with in the entertainment industry, because if you can't you will not stay a magician for long. It really is not anything too serious, as it happens to all of us. You just learn to move on. I always keep this mentality: "Okay-...
