WHAT’S INCLUDED?
- One Coin Spin: This is a mesmerizing and deceiving flourish-turned-vanish that is easy to perform, but is sure to leave your audience bewildered! Plays as well for 1 person as it does for an audience of 20, it’s done with Brendan’s signature elegance and poise. As a bonus- throughout the explanation, Brendan also teaches several important coin magic subtleties, and his take on the classic French drop.
- 5-coin Star: Going over each move with patience and detail, Brendan teaches every element of this beautiful and multi-stage flourish. Sure to improve your dexterity and finger strength, this move serves as a true showman’s final display for any multiple-coins routine, and will cause applause from your audience and envy from your fellow magicians.
- Coin Roll 1-4: Starting with rolling 1 coin and progressing into 4-coin simultaneous roll, Brendan exposes every angle of the action as he teaches you this seemingly simple, but actually intricate and devilishly entertaining flourish.  His rolls are fast, smooth, and continuous – he’s mastered this one, and now you can, too!
- Griffin Roll: One of the coolest of his ‘casual’ flourishes, a Griffin Roll utilizes a ring- it can be any ring at all- that seems to glide between his fingertips, dancing and flowing in a matter that’s sure to attract attention and cause amazement. The D.A.V.E system allows you to see the action detail and get additional written instructions, without ever pausing the video!
- Pen Spin: This isn’t your typical high school pen spin! Brendan is an amazing teacher, and he demonstrates that clearly in this segment, going over multiple variations of the classic pen spin where we see the pen seemingly defy all laws of physics and gravity!
- Insanity:Â in an absolutely astonishing feat that is sure to require some practice but be absolutely worth it, Brendan demonstrates a way to manipulate three objects all at once. Combining the Pen spin, the Griffin Roll, and the Coin Roll, he makes these objects dance and fly around his fingers, coming together in a magical array but never clashing. A truly amazing demonstration!
- Silver Fountain: One of the things Brendan is most known for is his ‘air work’ with coins. In this piece of showmanship and skill, multiple coins rise and fall out of his hand like a waterfall or a volcanic eruption. Perfectly aligned and never out of place, the coins jump, freeze mid-air, go behind the back, and land with grace. This is an excellent lesson both for all those who love Bobo’s original flourish, and for those who’ve never seen anything like this before!
- Coin Steal: Combining a flourish and a magic move, the coin steal is a perfect addition to your coin routine, allowing for natural, non-gimmicked miracles to happen in your spectator’s hand. This effect reminds us that Brendan is not only a great juggler, showman, and artist- he’s a truly great magician! The clever subtleties, audience management, scripting and blocking make this effect as impactful and mind-blowing as any coin effect can be!
- Finger Exercises:Â Giving us a peek into his regular practice routine, Brendan demonstrates multiple hand exercises- both with nothing else required, and with some additional props. Incorporating these into your daily practice will strengthen your fingers, improve your dexterity, and allow you to become a better magician & artist!
- And more!
