This is not a magic class with life skills “sprinkled in”… it is a life skills course camouflaged as a magic class.

Each class features one of the 8 traits of a true magician. These are the 8 important life skills we teach: Confidence, Respectfulness, Enthusiasm, Authenticity, Creativity, Humbleness, Preparedness, and Giving.

The kids will learn tricks that highlight these life-skills and have access to videos that reinforce these traits.

Yes, magic is an interactive art. We feel the most important benefits to be derived from magic come from performing for others.

There is a complex cycle of verbal and non-verbal communication flowing between the performer and the people watching that is unique to magic.

We’ve developed a system that will insure every child gets to perform for someone, several times, in the positive, nurturing classroom environment.

 Absolutely!

 We have created a totally safe and nurturing environment for your child’s first few performances inside every class, and try particularly hard to insure a child’s confidence has every opportunity to grow from the very beginning.

Of course! Although historically, more boys than girls get into magic, in recent years that has changed. 

There are more girls than ever before performing magic and the percentage of girls learning magic is increasing every year! Ultimate Magic Academy was developed with these changes in mind.

 Ultimate Magic Academy features a wide range of tricks from making things appear and disappear to reading minds and passing a solid through a solid.

Many of these tricks are unique to our program and they all feature a kid friendly presentation.

(Don’t worry, we won’t teach them how to make their sibling disappear!) 😉

Yes! Every trick is simple enough for a beginner and designed for small hands.

No prior experience is necessary.

Yes! We teach a wide variety of tricks and many will legitimately fool adults.

Others may not, but they serve a purpose in teaching the kids how to respond in a variety of situations.

For example, we teach the students what to say to audiences when someone says, “Can I see that?” or “I think I know how you did that.”

You betcha! Even if your child has never expressed interest in magic, most kids love watching and learning magic tricks.

Our main purpose is to make sure your child is having FUN! This is why we include several fun games that kids get to play in each class.

However, its not unusual, after the first class that kids are excited and THRILLED to be learning the secrets to magic!
