Alakazam Academy with Kainoa Harbottle
You might remember his strange name from Palms of Steel or the New York Coin Magic Symposiums, seen him online at Reel Magic Magazine, or read his column in the pages of Genii. No matter how you know Kainoa Harbottle's material, you also know he brings with him an engaging personality, an off-beat sense of humor, and some of the cleanest coin magic you will ever see.
In Kanoia’s first Alakazam Academy you will not only see amazing coin (and card) magic but you will learn the how’s and whys of the routines presented and the decisions Kanoia has made to perform strong and engaging magic. Kainoa's thinking is considered revolutionary by many of his contemporaries and this is an Academy you are NOT going to want to miss.

Too Many Coins
This is a no-holds-barred routine of doom with an incredible amount of technical and theoretical lessons.

Finally, the coins suddenly all return…or all vanish because the ending is up to you.
