Gary offers workshops tailored to fit libraries, schools, birthday parties, camps, etc.
Right now, he is offering several workshops in magic as well as one for basic balloon twisting. 

Magic encourages young people to develop:
reading, comprehension and concentration skills,
eye/hand coordination,
communication and verbal skills,
as well as creativity and expression.
All while building self-confidence and self-esteem.

 

 The Youth Magic Workshop


Your children will learn magic tricks that they
can do while building their presentation skills
and self-esteem. Best of all, they will learn all
they need to know to put on a fantastic mini-
magic show for their family and friends!

The magic workshops are built around the premise
that learning is fun and, with a little practice,
anyone can learn to be an Amazing Magician!


* Each workshop runs forty-five minutes in length.
* Workshops are appropriate for children ages 6-12 years old.
* Each workshop can accommodate a maximum of 25 children.

The class begins with Gary demonstrating a magic trick and giving
the children a chance to guess how it was done. (They love that part!)

Once the secret is revealed, the mechanics of the tricks are gone over
with the children, emphasizing creativity in the use of magic words,
gestures and stage presence.

The class is very interactive and hands-on, and the children are encouraged
to explore their innate creativity.

The Balloon Twisting Workshop

This workshop focuses on learning basic twists with balloons and then
applying those same twists to create several different animals and hats.

* Each workshop runs forty-five minutes in length.
* Workshops are appropriate for children ages 6-12 years old.
* Each workshop can accommodate a maximum of 25 children.

Students are given inflated balloons, step by step instructions, and
one-on-one assistance in constructing a basic balloon animal or hat.

can learn how to use those twists to construct more complex creations
through many books available through your local or school library.
