An Online Event – 7th November 6pm UK Time (All recorded sessions available for streaming after each live event occurs) Access to the event can be found via the ‘product access’ area in main menu.
Join Ben Earl for three card magic sessions that are not for the faint hearted—or those remotely sensitive to the horrors of extreme pasteboard manipulation. These sessions are for the maniacs, the obsessives and the lunatics who take perverse pleasure from learning advanced sleight of hand with playing cards.
Do you want to develop a world class touch, flow and technical ability? Do you want to learn secrets, skills and effects so advanced they will make hairs on the back of your neck burst into flames? For the first time ever, Ben reveals the true secrets behind his technical mastery. It’s within reach of anyone… but it will require your blood, sweat and tears.
Some of you will cry, others will roar a triumphant roar as their sleight of hand is catapulted to the heavens and praised by the Gods—a chance to escape the sheer hell of ‘satisfactory’ card handling.
With no gimmicks or extreme angles, everything can be used in the real world… for those brave enough to try!
