You Are Unique. So Is Your Lesson Plan.
We all learn differently. Each of us has a natural ability with some techniques and zero potential for others. Often, sleights appear to be hopeless, but just require patience and time. Every student practices differently — and requires different levels of reinforcement to grasp the concepts of sleight of hand. Finally, some cardmen want to learn challenging sleight of hand — others just want to perform powerful magic.
As you work with Aaron, he'll assess your style and offer suggestions for techniques, material and approaches that suit your personality and skills. Together, you'll discover and cultivate your full potential.
Frequency
Magic Training is a lot like going to the gym. To get the best results, you'll need to go regularly and refine your form. Aaron's unique approach builds time between lessons to digest the principles and effects you've learned.
Most students work with Aaron every other week or once a month. A 5 lesson package makes for at least 3 months of lessons. If your life gets hectic, that's OK too. You have up to 6 months to schedule your lessons. If you want to take an extra month and practice before the final lesson of your package, you can do that.
Lesson Structure
Each lesson flows through 5 stages:
- Assessment: See where you are and establish your goals for the lesson
- Skill: Teach a method or technique
- Drill: Aaron will teach how to practice and hone your new skills
- Application: Use your new skill in a practical magical effect
- Moving Forward: Get your homework: What to read, practice and perform before your next lesson
