Were you ever interested in magic as a performing art, OR, are you now interested in magic - and wish to learn doing magic?
If your answer is YES - we have a solution for you.
There are many instructional books and DVDs on the subject, BUT some are very confusing and hard to follow - AND, they do not give you a hands on approach, personalized instructions, nor do they tell you if you are following the instructions correctly and doing the trick as it should be done.

THERE IS ONLY ONE SOLUTION

Having a live teacher that will teach, and correct what you may be doing wrong.

If you are fascinated by magicians on TV, such as David Copperfield, David Blaine, Criss Angel, etc., and are looking for an exciting new hobby, then this is for YOU.

Private lessons are very expensive, so to make it affordable to the average person, we offer magic classes for up to 10 students per class. Classes run for eight to ten weeks. You can approach your public library to see if they are willing to offer such a class. Have the library contact Jim Rainho for further information and availability.

Is your child interested in magic tricks?  

We also offer magic classes at schools for after-school programs. Contact your child's school to see if they wish to offer a magic course.

Right now Jim Rainho is teaching at two schools in Reading, MA. with two more potentially booked for the winter session. He has been with the Reading Schools for over ten years.
His magic course is one of the most sought after for after-school programs.

Jim Rainho has been a professional performing magician for over 50 years. He is the inventor of over 100 magic items now on the magic market for professional magicians, and he lectures regularly for magic clubs.

----------NOTE to parents:----------

Children who learn magic learn to read and comprehend what they read.
They also learn to get up in front of a class.
They learn to communicate.
Their self esteem improves - and so do their grades.

Magic encourages young people to develop:
reading
& comprehension skills,
practice skills,
concentration skills.
eye/hand/finger coordination,
digital dexterity and hand/eye coordination from practicing
sleight-of-hand moves and the handling of objects in specific ways.
communication/verbal skills
,
creativity & expression skills.
self confidence and esteem.

  IMPORTANT NOTE
ON CHILDREN'S MAGIC CLASSES & WORKSHOPS

 

Our workshops are structured so that the children learn and will be able to perform the tricks with the props they receive in the class.
The classes are not 'arts & crafts' classes where the children make up their own props from paper, fabric, etc.

THE SUPPLIES WE PROVIDE ARE COMMERCIAL PROPS AVAILABLE IN MAGIC SHOPS. The students are also provided with a folder to keep the instruction sheets, that we provide at each class.


At the end of our workshops the children put on a show for the parents and receive a certificate for their accomplishment.

 


WARNING

There are National companies that provide such services to schools and libraries but they hire local magicians, who may not have had any experience at this type of work, and they DO NOT include the magic props and you never know who you are getting for a teacher. They pay very low fees to the magician so you are getting someone who is at the low end of the scale.
