Learn Street Magic, Pick Up Girls - 2 Insider Secrets

Learning magic tricks is not just fun and games--it can literally change your life forever. This is most true in one specific category: doing magic is a great way for guys to attract girls.

Walk down a busy street in any major city and you will see it today: street performers, all vying for the attention of an audience out of the passers-by. These performers use their own magic tricks, coupled with charm and occasional music to entertain the crowd. It's not hard to understand why girls might gain interest in a guy like that.

You can also become a performer, rather than just an onlooker, with only a few days of rehearsal. Learn a few tricks of your own, and before you know it, you will be a bona fide street magician. But even more important than the magic is your method. I write a lot of these guides, but the following 2 tips are the most crucial:

Tip #1: Keep it Simple.
To become a street magician all the girls like, the first thing you have to remember is to learn entertaining, simple, and easy-to-master tricks. Since this is for street purposes, you have to include a lot of movements and color to attract people.

Make sure, also, that the tricks will have the potential to attract the attention of a large crowd and at the same time can be seen even by those who are quite far. One particular trick and popular too, is using cards, coins, levitation, and the ring. Although you should not focus on these alone, because once you have the proper techniques and preparation, you will be all set to becoming a certified street magician.

Tip #2: Get the audience involved.
If you don't follow this tip, you are sure to get zero response from your audience. Doing street magic is not about the trick--it's about the experience for the crowd. I have seen plenty of guys who were mediocre at magic still kill an audience with just their personality.

To develop this skill, first perform tricks to family and friends when they are least expecting it. This way, your confidence will be built right away. This will also be a good chance for you to get feedback from them so that you will be able to avoid mistakes when in front of other people.

Also, it's better if you practice the same trick repeatedly but in front of different people. This is so you will master it. A good magician can do tricks, but the magician who gets the girls will be the one with the hilarious dialogue. That takes practice. Always listen carefully to the funny things your audience says while you perform a trick. Not only will this would certainly make them feel that they are part of your show, but you can also "steal" their material for your next performance.

What Makes a Magic Trick Exciting & Appealing to its Audiences?

What's the secret behind every successful magician?

Magic Tricks is not all about the magic itself.

Personally, I have a few students myself. They are all keen learners but most of them have no basic knowledge on magic. I could easily tell apart the more experienced ones from the other.

What Do You Want to Achieve As a Magician?

Most of the time, amateur magicians strives only to impress, and forgets about the fun and entertainment of magic.

Magicians are actually entertainers too, sometimes, even some clowns are magicians, such as Sylvester the Jester.

Learning Magic is just like learning how to play a musical instrument or playing a sport. Always remember, practice makes perfect, and don't give up easily. Practise as much as you can whenever you are free. Practise in front of the mirror too, get your angles right if it is a angle-sensitive trick and remember to master your routine before performing in public.

Is There Such a Thing As Magic? Make Your Audience Think So

I've seen them both; you've probably seen them, too: one magician who has clearly blown all his wealth at the magic store but leaves his audience cold and another working impromtu in the street with a borrowed coin and leaving his audience in a state of wonder. Both working magicians but only in one case did magic seem to really happen. What has one got that the other hasn't? It's clearly not a lot of expensive gimmicks. What it is, is the biggest secret of all magic. And that's what I'm going to share with you now. If you'd rather be the second than the first magician in the example above, you need to know this. So read on...

Let's get one thing cleared up straightaway: I'm not suggesting that the first magician in my example failed because he had expensive kit, still less that the second one succeeded because he didn't. The point is, that whether you have expensive stage magic or you specialise in impromtu street tricks, you are only going to make the magic seem real if you have understood the biggest, most important, most fundamental secret of all successful magic.

So what is the secret?

Is it technical proficiency? No.

That is very important and you should certainly put a lot of time and effort into acquiring it, but it doesn't bring the magic to life on it's own account.

So is it mastering misdirection, that so many magic teachers talk about, at least if they are any good? No, it's not that.

Although you absolutely must master misdirection if you really want to be in control of your magic and guide your audience's experience so that the magic can happen. But your misdirection techniques won't work (or at least they'll be hard to implement) without this vital ingredient.

Alright, enough already, what is it????

I can explain it in a single word: rapport. Without rapport all your efforts will be in vain. With it, you will make magic seem real to your audience. It is that important. It is essential. So, let's take a closer look at what it really means for the magician.

Rapport is all about communication. It's a deep form of communication that gets your audience to like you and brings them together on the same wavelength.

There are various techniques that we can gather from the most recent psychological research that can help build this experience of rapport. They are well worth studying and thinking about. Ultimately, you need to interiorize these principles so that they become part of your natural behaviour and so are employed honestly: nothing destroys rapport more effectively than attempts to fake it! However, grasping an insight into these principles will help you understand and develop your own natural rapport-building instincts in the magic context.

A key technique in rapport building is called 'mirroring'. Basically, people are happier to accept and trust someone that they perceive as being like them, or belonging to their group. So, the clothes you wear in a given situation should be chosen to help you fit in, mirroring your audience. Equally, your gestures and body language should reflect those of your audience. The style of language that you use and so on, should all match your audience. That way, they will accept you as one of their own and will relax and give you trust.

A word of warning at this point: when an audience trusts you, you must never abuse that trust. When you do magic tricks, don't leave your audience feeling tricked; instead, leave them with the gift of wonder.

Another key technique is to empathise with your audience. Try to pick up on how they are feeling, what kind of day they've had, what they are wanting from the experience of watching your magic. Feel how they are feeling and respond to that.

The third technique is to be kind! Don't mock your audience, don't humiliate them or make them feel stupid. Performing magic isn't about showing how clever you are (although you are!) It's about taking the audience with you on a journey. Inviting them to a magical place that they will enjoy and making it easy and fun for them to get there.

And that's rapport.

Assuming that you are technically proficient and have a good grasp on misdirection: build rapport with your audience and even if you have only a couple of tricks with coins, you will take them with you on a wonderful journey and they will, even if only for a moment, believe that magic is real.

Which is good news especially for beginner magicians because it means you don't need to spend a fortune at the magic store! A few simple tricks and effects that you can easily and cheaply learn through video downloads these days, a little study of good magic principle and the ability to build rapport and you have evrything you need.
