Lessons Make Learning Fast and Fun.

Are your magic skills developing more slowly than you’d like? Do you have trouble knowing exactly what you should focus on or practice at any given time, and why? Do you think you would benefit from experienced instruction, regular guidance and a cohesive plan to develop your magic?

If you can sincerely answer yes to any of these questions, you should seriously consider studying with me online. Simply put, regular lessons from an experienced teacher can make your practice time a great deal more fun, effective, and profitable—and ensure you learn better and faster than you will by any other method.

Lessons Unlock The Real Secrets of Magic

Lessons are the best way to learn what far too few magicians seem to understand. Performing great card magic does not necessarily mean you need to perfect advanced sleights like the pass. Rather, it’s about learning and mastering the fundamental concepts that power all magic—and being able to apply those concepts reliably and confidently in front of real people.

Students without real training often spend countless hours working on a sleight they believe will strengthen their magic, only to discover the truth years later: even a perfect sleight won’t be effective unless it’s part of a unified, natural system of card handling. Until a student develops their own cohesive approach, perfect moves only draw attention to themselves and arouse suspicion. And remember, suspicion is all it takes to ruin any hope of creating real magic!

Taking regular lessons with an experienced teacher will develop your own unified approach to card magic, and arm you with the tools and understanding you need to perform great magic. Without genuine guidance from a passionate, experienced teacher, you may eventually develop the necessary skills, but you’re destined to waste years in a loop of trial and error.

“Before I met Aaron I tried to sort through many approaches to developing my own magic skills. Over time, this approach left inconsistencies and bad habits in my magic. Aaron’s teaching met me exactly where I was in terms of development and knowledge. Our lessons were specific to my needs and challenges, and filled with practical advice harvested from years of practical experience.

Aaron’s easy communication style has allowed him to challenge, provoke and inspire me to be better. He treats me as a peer and freely shares tips and insights that only a professional with years of experience could provide.

Aaron’s approach and philosophy are based in lessons he learned from magic legends who clearly instilled in him their values. Our lessons not only exposed me to those ideas, but gave me a grounding in the most practical application of natural card magic. That process has raised my work to a new level. Our meetings include valuable lessons in magic history, as well as philosophy and art. The lessons give a real context to my approach and challenge me to develop more than tricks and techniques. My lessons with Aaron have taught me to focus on moments in my magic—and my audiences can really feel that difference.”

Before You Buy Another Magic Book or DVD Read This:

Magic DVDs have a special appeal because they allow you to see exactly what a move looks like in real performance—and exactly what your fingers need to do to accomplish it.

If only learning magic were as easy as repeating what you see on a screen!

Any pro will tell you it takes a real refining process to master even the simplest sleight—a minimum of a couple months, assuming you have real guidance.

Even the best DVD can’t…

  • correct your form every few weeks as you practice and make sure bad habits don’t take root.
  • show you a wide variety of exercises to increase your confidence and mastery
  • teach you how to block your new tool into every conceivable real-life performance situation—then make sure you can really make it work!
  • ensure proper hand position, body posture, eye gaze, and verbal misdirection so you can truly create magic and not just do a move.

These things can often only be done with the help of a real teacher and regular lessons. Otherwise, it will take many years to learn these things by trial and error on your own. A quick honest look at the state of magic today will show you: most students who learn without training never really make it.

In the past, virtually all master magicians had mentors and prided themselves on having great teachers. It’s how they got to be masters. It’s how they progressed quickly. It’s how they gained the confidence to perform in any situation.

If someone asked you today who you study magic with, what would you say? Wouldn’t it feel great to have a solid answer and the chops to knock ’em dead?

“Aaron’s teaching has made me better at the things I want to be better at, his honest insight has made me aware that there is a logical development in learning sleight of hand. Most important, his mentoring and friendship has shown me that I do have the ability to accomplish my card magic goals. Thanks Aaron!”

—Tim Mech, Age 42, Toronto, Canada

Magic Forum Fiction

Friendly magicians are often willing to give advice, especially on the internet. Ask five magicians, you’ll get five answers—all too often, the information you’ll receive is conflicting and misleading.

Very few passionate sleight of hand artists are professional entertainers. Even fewer professional entertainers are high-level sleight of hand artists. Further, you hardly ever find a top worker with enough teaching experience to show you the answer that will work best for you.

Most of the time, even well-intended, quality magicians can only offer you their opinion, or a solution that has worked well for them. That solution will likely not take into account your specific style, experience and goals.

Seeking help this way ensures you’ll waste many hours trying out and practicing countless approaches, only to decide after months or years of practice that a particular method isn’t improving past a certain point, or simply doesn’t work the way you’d like.

If you really love magic, why approach learning it this way? During your lessons, you’ll acquire a series of tools and approaches that each build upon the last to create a cohesive approach to card magic that will allow you to work real wonders.

How Can Lessons Teach Me So Much? Is There A Plan?

The specific sleights, tools and tricks you learn will depend on your experience, goals and personal style. That said, no matter whether you’re learning your first trick or the most difficult palm I can teach you, the process will remain largely the same. Your mastery of any skill will build through four distinct phases:

Acquire a Specific Skill step by step. As you practice, you’ll receive essential course correction, as well as new details you’ll need to perfect the sleight.

And that’s just the beginning. We’ll ensure your new knowledge is ready for performance as you:

Apply Misdirection and hard-bake organic cover into the design of every sleight you execute, so you deceive so completely, it must be real magic!

Learn Powerful Effects that require you to practice only one new skill at a time. This carefully measured approach ensures that you learn new concepts deeply—and as quickly as possible.

Perform Miracles! You’ll learn, trick by trick, to use presentation not just to entertain, but to create the actual effect in the minds of your audience.

Every time we repeat this process, you’ll increase your mastery, gain new tools and learn effects for your repertoire. Before you know it, you’ll be well on your way to amazing audiences with your own personal style of real magic with cards!

Working with Aaron has changed my appreciation of card magic for good and made performing more fun. These days I am getting great reactions! Thanks to my great teacher, Aaron Fisher, I know I’m becoming a true expert at the card table.”
