Three Easy To Learn And Essential Skills For Every Magician

By Miles Sunkest

I saw this fantastic magic show the other night. He was absolutely fantastic. The way he held the crowd in the palm of his hand was nothing less than spectacular. If you have ever seen a magician up close, then you know what I'm talking about. It's like they have some kind of psychic power over the audience.

Most audience members like watching a good magician, and many people, like you, would like to do the same thing. To hold a crowd mesmerized and hanging on your every word. If you'd like to do that, by reading the rest of this article you'll discover that it is much easier than anybody realizes once you know a couple of inside secrets.

The first skill is of course, magic. The best magic to learn right away is sleight of hand. These are card tricks, coin tricks, anything that you can do with small objects. Once you get the hang of some basic ones, you can create your own.

Additionally, you should learn some cold reading. These are skills of reading body language, some psychological and mathematical tricks that can make people think that you are psychic. Some people make a whole career out of these skills alone. And surprisingly, they are very easy to learn.

Now you've got some tricks, you need to work on your delivery. The best way to do this is to practice public speaking. Join a club, or take a class, do whatever it takes to get good a public speaking. The delivery of your tricks to a crowd, even a small one, will require all the things you learn from public speaking.

So there you have it. Three skills that are relatively easy to learn, and when put together will give you an extremely powerful ability to captivate and mesmerize audiences wherever you go. The sooner you get started, the sooner you will be collecting the admiration of strangers everywhere.
