Whether you are a beginner looking to get started or a pro who wants some feedback there is something for everyone in this one hour class. For the novice, you’ll learn the basic techniques of simple sleight of hand magic. You’ll be shown three magic tricks and then each trick will be broken down to its basic comments to see not only how it works, but why it works. For the seasoned performer, you’ll get direct and honest feedback on an act your are working one and a collaborative session of tweaks and adjustments to make it better.
