Magic Cruise and More!

 

“Achievement is talent plus preparation.”

–Malcolm Gladwell

 

While many folks complain about “the economy,” others are taking this down-time to polish their performances to perfection.  Following are just a few examples of our talented students whose preparation has paid off in major achievements.

Henry Vargas, from Brazil, attended a one day Master Class in Peru last summer, and came to our seven day Master Class here in Las Vegas earlier this year.  Just this week, all of his hard work paid off big time.  He was awarded the top prize in general magic at South America’s largest convention,  FLASOMA, in Lima, Peru.  Congratulations, Henry!!

Erica Sodos, has been working hard for many years on her one-woman show.  She’s come out to the Magic and Mystery School for Master Classes and has worked with me in private phone sessions over the years, and the fruits of her labors are blossoming now.  Learn more about her show here:
