What will he teach?Getting To Know You - The magician takes out a deck of cards and asks the spectator a series of funny questions about themselves, spelling 1 card for each letter of their answer. Despite the large range of possibilities, the last answer ends on a card with the spectators name on it. This is an excellent trick for establishing a real connection to an audience member.
Wild Birthday - This routine takes a classic of card magic and turns it into a fun routine for anyone having a birthday where you are performing, especially kids. It gets the entire group involved in celebrating the spectator's birthday and leaves them with a nice souvenir to remember you by.
Mallrats - A spectator takes an imaginary journey around a mall directory and the magician is able to correctly predict what store the spectator will stop at. This effect leaves every member of the audience with a unique souvenir that they will save for a long time (which just happens to have all of your contact information on it.)
Mad About You - A very personal effect where you bring the audience inside of your life for a minute and prove that fate decides the path we take. The spectator has a free choice of any card in the deck (for real) yet they choose the only one that matches your prediction.
Baby Gag - This is David's take on the standard "Baby Gag" effect. David turns this quick joke into a miracle….about 50% of the time...and the other 50% of the time, it's still a hilarious gag!
Baci - A simple card trick turns into a magical (and tasty) souvenir for your spectators. This effect is perfect for table hoppers as it gets several people involved, takes up very little pocket space and creates a visual transposition of 2 objects.
Can I Call You Sometime - David's signature effect. A spectator is given a free choice of 25 different ladies' phone numbers. A deck of cards gets shuffled (by the spectator) in a face up/face down condition. The spectator spreads the deck and the only cards face up match the phone number selected. A true hands-off miracle! Asi Wind says "Just the concept of David's trick "Can I call you sometime" is worth the price of his whole lecture"

These are inexpensive tools that will help you to expand your brand and put yourself in a better position to grow your business.
