Class Experience

Beginner Level

Let's make some magic! In this kid friendly magic class, students will use the art of "illusion" to create magic tricks that will entertain the whole family. Students will use simple household items and a bit of imagination to create their magic tricks and have a chance to practice each trick in class. This magic class was a hit in our summer camps and we are delighted to provide it as a one time class that can be enjoyed on a rainy day or during the holiday break.
