As one of the world’s most skilled card magicians, we thought Andrew would be the perfect person to teach our audience everything they need to take their card magic to the highest level.
But we weren’t the only ones who had that thought…
Over the last couple of years, Andrew has spent time both working with Derren Brown and personally mentoring David Blaine—helping two of the greatest magicians of all time take their magic to the highest level.
Between this busy schedule and the time spent developing his own theater show, Andrew is one of the most sought-after card magicians in the world.
Which is why we’re so excited to announce that his course, after over a year in development, is finally available.
What’s included?
Over the course of nearly 4 hours, Andrew goes into detail on the fundamental building blocks of card magic, teaching not only the core mechanics but all the subtleties that make his magic so effortless.
Alongside these techniques, Andrew shares a range of powerful effects straight from his own performing repertoire. Some are easy and can be picked up almost instantly, but others are more ‘advanced’ and give viewers a goal and standard to work toward.
Generally, the techniques Andrew teaches fall under four categories—controls, switches, steals, and forces.
For those that don’t know:
-
Controls are ways in which a selected card can be kept under your control without the spectator having any idea how
-
Switches are ways in which a selected card can be secretly switched for another card (or vice versa)
-
Steals are ways in which a selected card can be taken ‘out of play’ and removed from the deck
-
Forces are ways in which you can make sure the spectator picks the card you want them to.
When taken in combination, these four simple ingredients form 80% of all card magic.
Meaning, that almost any great trick can probably be broken down into these four categories.
For example:
-
The Ambitious Card uses a control to bring the card to the top of the deck, then a switch to make it look like you’re putting it back in the deck.
-
Two-Card Monte uses a set of switches to make the spectator think they’re holding two Queens when actually they’re holding two Aces.
-
Card to Wallet uses a control to bring the card to the top of the deck, then a steal to secretly get the card out of the deck and into the wallet. (And if you don’t want to use a steal, you can simply force a card of which you have a duplicate in your pocket)
In this course, Andrew approaches these four pillars of card magic and does two incredibly valuable things.
First, he shows specific techniques and ways of performing these moves. Having these moves taught to you by a real master is genuinely invaluable, and Andrew has hand-picked them based on his years of experience and study.
Once you learn these sleights his way, you’ll never need to relearn them again.
Secondly and arguably more importantly he reveals the mindset and approach he takes toward card magic more generally, and it’s here that we think the real value lies.
The reason Andrew’s magic is constantly praised by the world’s most famous and successful magicians isn’t just because his sleight of hand is great.
It’s also because he’s one of the few magicians we’ve studied who seems to understand how to achieve true naturalness in your magic.
This is a trend we’ve seen again and again. At the highest level of magic, magicians aren’t thinking about whether the Marlo tilt is better than the pass, they’re thinking about ways they can use tension and relaxation to make their magic feel more natural.
Andrew is a great example of this.
Throughout the course, you get the impression that he’s constantly thinking about how you can reduce unnecessary movements in your hands (ie a modification to the way the top palm is usually done that means your thumb doesn’t need to push over the card) finding ways to reduce tension in your movements (ie by converting a break to a step so you can set the cards on the table rather than holding them in your hands), how to motivate actions that would seem unnatural otherwise, and so much more.
Do NOT overlook how useful this stuff is.
In our opinion, this is the reason David Blaine consulted with Andrew. It wasn’t because he needed a new opener for his show, or that he’d forgotten how to do a double lift. It was because David knew that with Andrew’s advice, his magic could look more natural, effortless, and ultimately deceptive.
That’s what Andrew will teach you too.
All that said, let’s talk specifics…
Here’s just a handful of the ideas, techniques, and subtleties you’ll learn:
-
Two very natural ways to obtain a break under as many cards as you want.
-
One tip on the pinky count that will change the way you approach the move (we couldn’t do the pinkie count with our left hand before we watched this, but instantly after we could.)
-
How to avoid the most obvious tell most people have while doing the pinky count.
-
A very clever double lift that mimics the way spectators actually turn over two cards. (This is the first time we’ve ever seen someone teach a double lift that is arguably the most natural way to turn over a card.)
-
Why the action of the double lift is inherently unnatural and how you can fix that.
-
How to take moves that are thought to be perfect and continue to improve them.
-
A technique used by mimes and other stage performers that, simply by doing the OPPOSITE of, will make your top change almost invisible.
-
How Andrew has removed almost all the problems commonly associated with the cross-cut force.
-
How to make a force feel like a thought of card.
-
Two powerful tricks you can perform if a timing force goes wrong (the second is an especially clever use of the one-ahead principle.)
-
The technique Andrew often uses instead of breaks (this is what separates the boys from the men when it comes to powerful and natural card magic.)
-
How to insert a chosen card into a spread, cleanly close the spread, leave the deck on the table…and yet instantly have a break below the chosen card once you pick up the deck (oh, and in the action of doing this you’ll be able to obtain a very clean peek of the chosen card.)
-
A ‘slow motion’ version of the turnover pass that lets you do the move right in front of your audience without them realizing (and if you want to learn the standard turnover pass, don’t worry—Andrew teaches that too.)
-
Andrew’s ‘rough shuffle’ control (it looks like a very messy shuffle yet controls a selected card to the top of the deck.)
-
A trick that simply uses just one force, one control, and one switch (but is one of the most powerful tricks you can do.)
-
An absolute masterclass on palming (we’re not exaggerating when we say that just ONE of the tips that Andrew shared doubled the effectiveness of our top palm.)
-
What most beginners and even some pros get wrong about palming (this is why your hand feels so unnatural and obvious when you palm.)
-
A technique that’s so sneaky it feels illegal to know (secretly keeping cards under your control even while your spectator is shuffling the deck is just one application, but there are many more.)
-
A ‘delayed’ color change that we actually prefer to many of the more visual and instant variations.
-
AND MUCH MORE!
This is a nearly 4-hour masterclass on the fundamentals of card magic. Our goal is that this becomes THE ‘go-to’ course on the topic.
Usually, a course like this is sold for $100-300.
(And to learn the techniques and tricks you’ll perform for a lifetime, that’s still a great deal.)
