Description

Join John Carey for the first of a series of courses called the Carey Super Sessions! The first one day course on November 14th is entitled Streamlined Commercial Card Magic. On it you will learn material that is extremely commercial and that plays in a wide variety of venues.

Carey has built his reputation internationally in recent years with his stripped down and minimalistic approach to card magic, which is evident in his 4 critically acclaimed books. You will learn material that is powerful but also practical. No pipe dreams here.

In the first course John will perform, discuss and teach 15(!) effects from his vast repertoire. There’s amazing variety of plot here with truly something for everyone. The course will be streamed live and students can interact with John and our team and ask questions and get help and tips that will take your card magic onto the next level. The course will be saved in your Alakazam streaming account for anytime viewing.
