Lectures and Workshops

They didn't teach us notation at school. The set of lectures and workshops listed below serves to introduce approaches to symbolic notation for card and coin tricks, and for close-up magic in general. They combine academic value and entertainment pleasure. Rather an intellectual (but far from theoretical!) adventure, they are practical and inspiring. Everyone interested in close-up magic, and not familiar with the power of notations, will learn new tools to approach future trick projects.

These lectures are ideal for the monthly get-together at the inner circle, or the yearly convention.

They can be provided on premise and virtually. I live in southern Germany, we can communicate in german, english, spanish.

To arrange an appointment please contact me under the email address given on the Contact page. I look forward to your message!
