Street Magic Revealed Online – Learn Card Tricks

This is my first post and my first website!

This blog is amount street magic revealed online.  I’ve found some great resources of card tricks online, and other items.

I always wanted a concise guide to magic.  I’d looked in all the magic shops near me, and googled and googled and googled.

The problem with youtube is you can’t save the magic – sure a great resource, but you need stuff written down to revise and review at home, on the bus, on the subway.  I’d see a video online and practice it, but really needed something to do while on vacation.  Can you imagine the joy I have when I go on vacation, I have my favourite magic tricks, I spend a few hours away from the rest of the family, and I just practice.  I sit by the lake with my magic notes, I can see my reflection in the water if I sit over the edge (sure beats that mirror) and I just practice, for hours and hours.  I’ve learnt some amazing tricks this way – and sure, youtube helps if you want to find some basic tricks – but if you want to find the real magic, I mean the stuff that makes people say ‘wow’ the stuff that makes a girl give you the most amazing smile, and the stuff that makes all the days and days of practice worthwhile for that moment of surprise, then get a book, get alone, and get practicing, period.

People always ask me who my favourite magician is – its a guy from the UK called Derren Brown – totally unlike anyone else you see.  He’s has some great ticks, which he displays as ‘mind reading’ and there is some of that, but it’s good old fashioned slight of hand a lot of the time.  I choose him because of his performance and demeanour
