Magicians NEED To Do THIS Better! (MAGIC THEORY TUTORIAL)

Playing Cards available now : www.houseofplayingcards.com
Magic tutorials are great, but what's more important are the ideas behind the tricks, moves, and sleight of hand. If we can give meaning to what we do NOT for us but for who we are performing to, we will not only have much more success in what we do, but we will also have a much more fulfilling time doing it.

Alex is the man who can change a simple trick into a mind blowing magic which is why I think he is one of the best magician in the world.

[@AlexPandrea]

thank you so much!

[@themotivator1698]

@@AlexPandrea You are unbelievable! Not many would take the time out of their day to help others' craft and overall routine, let alone travel across the world like you did and use what you experienced to help them! Truly an example Alex!

[@ludovicmeo1090]

This is exactly the kind of video that I wanted from you !! Your philosophy about magic is so valuable and meaningful, thanks bro !

[@disappointment953]

I used a coin with a doublelift. I did the dl and put the coin on top of the switched card and turned the coin over and the effect was much better. Thanks for the great vid from Germany

[@aaronreianinon5318]

Im just glad im subbed to this channel, this is really gold.

[@Chili7Voodoo]

Alex, I really love the way that you, and a couple others, try to use magic to actually enrich the lives of the people we touch in a meaningful way. It's more than entertainment, but a gateway to connection and hope; those things that truly fuel the soul. Thank you.

[@card_tester115]

Wow that was empressive. I learned so much Out of this. I want to bring my Magic on a new Level, and that really helped me!👍

[@bernardjohn7112]

It was great having you here man. Was even more awesome having attended the lecture, learning so much! You rock, brotherman! 🤙🏽

[@TheFreakOnee]

I appreciate you putting this up. Knowing you and knowing that you care about sharing knowledge in your field is simply great. Thanks a lot.

[@studio-arjay]

This video is the reason why I love Alex's channel. Most magic channels just spit tutorials out like there's no tomorrow. Here, not only do you learn routines, but also small tips and add-ons to improve yourself. Keep doing what you do Alex and inspire more people 👍🏾

[@courageoustruthpodcast8836]

I love your perspective on theory of magic- it's next level! Would love more lectures like this.

[@christinelynnmagic865]

I'm also excited for the pass project. love the way you teach magic!

[@berndmaier2504]

Such a amazing Video. I Love your thoughts behind magic and making it powerful. Hope for more theory videos

[@ZGBrickfilms]

Wow, that was deep! I’m definitely using this technique in the future!

[@ngowanjun]

Wow alex this is really something different compared to your usual tutorial and honestly this had teach me a great and important lesson today. Rather than just doing magic, this is performing magic, its important to get the reason before u perform or else it wont be meaningful as it should be. Would love to see more this kind of videos/materials.

[@sabomagician562]

This is greate, ill try to get this for myself. One what i found its working its just "slow down" and effect will be much stronger too. Good job Alex!

[@user-zx7ux2pz4r]

Great segment! You just gave a KILLER IDEA for a use of a double lift... Thanks!

Great video Alex, inspiring me to go out and create for others.

[@ChimueIslas]

Thanks for this beautiful present

[@rtonce]

Performing arts should never lose their polish. Thank you Alex for being at this level and for your efforts in preserving and championing the sparks which make entertainment an inspiring bit of joy. In the details...speech and grammar, when proper and polite also work wonders. "For me" should be "for myself", or simply "I feel", and feeling is what entertainment is all about.

[@GiovanniPaladini10]

This is lovely, the passion you send in the world really motivates me and many other people to pursue a meaning in each performance. Thank you for this fantastic perspective on this so simple and so important matter! Love from Italy :D

[@eversosleight]

[@meteetsee42]

This is the reason I started learning magic. Psychology. Please do more videos like this. There’s enough magic trick tutorials already.

[@andreass.6973]

Please Alex more stuff like this .....it's so awesome how you create a simple Double Lift to a mind blowing Magic Trick...you are a Genius !!!! Thats the reason why you are the best magician in the whole wide world.....i am a big Fan ......Luv u .

[@sapientia_potentia_est4388]

More of this please!!!

[@jerryRp90x]

Love the theory, need more of it.

[@biosdilt1399]

Thank you for that kind of video, it's really what's missing in every magic tutorial We all try to put magic in the spectator's eyes, when we should focus on putting magic in their mind This video really changed my vision of how we should do magic, thank you :) PS: and am impatient to see the passes !

[@AlexPandrea]

thanks for the great comment! and thats a GREAT way of putting it. Magic at its first and most basic form fools the eyes ..magic a step up intrigues the mind...and magic done at the highest level touches the heart. These 3 forms are the basis of my thinking and i’m currently writing notes on it 💪🏻

[@marcodrummen4074]

really strong information you really take it to a whole different level.

[@yizzysblock]

Looved the ending haha what a nice gentleman coming up with a beer hehe and awesome lecture!💯

[@magiaremakia2828]

Hey Alex. This video was great, there aren't enough people that think this way...so thanks

[@pgmaniacofficial2414]

Wow. Great knowledge.

[@timothyishyc]

I really like the last advice.... giving positivity to others is such a good advice! Love it

[@Mercutio01]

Honestly, I feel like the theory is more important than the tricks themselves, so I really appreciate this as it's what I need to work on more myself.

[@AlexPandrea]

thanks! i totally agree I think the theory, or the way you present it, is the key to having the impact as strong as possible

[@Legolas3300]

I you are best magician of the world.....coz you can turn a copper into gold.....love you Alex....❤️❤️

[@tiagopadua]

Oh man, this is GOLD! I'm just beginning to do magic, and this talk opened a whole new dimension for me. I'm a bit mindblown, sorry hahahah. Thanks for sharing!!

[@EmanueleGironi]

You're spreading all over the world very important principles, thank you Alex, really

[@AlexPandrea]

thank you! all one can do is try :)

[@Rom0.5]

This is exactly why I loved Derren Brown's Show "Miracle". The fact that he associated pieces of magic/mentalism with strong emotions made me feel so concerned and into his stuff. The moment he gave the broken light bulb to a spectator saying that it will help her rememner how strong and brave she was this day, so she will be confident enough to accomplish things she doesn't feel strong enough to do is so brilliant for example. The end of the video reminded me this, what do you think ? If you saw the show of course. Great video by the way, I love that kind of magic theory stuff. I always feel like it makes me so much better as a magician/performer each time. Love it !

[@AlexPandrea]

thanks for the awesome comment! i appreciate you taking the time to leave your thoughts 🙌🏻🔥

[@h.davidson4915]

Vernon said "Magicians quit thinking too soon". You didn't. Great job Alex.

[@pavelfojtek1050]

Hey Alex, I saw the lecture in Paris on your channel (well, about 9 minutes long) and damn, I am so curious right now. I want to see all of these lectures so Im asking, is there any chance I can buy rest of the videos online? Havent found it anywhere. And I doubt you will be visiting Czech Republic any time soon, so... :D (but If you would, hit me up) thanks a lot

[@kingrobert1st]

What I got out of this inspiring lecture is : don't do a sleight for the sake of doing a sleight. Then the sleight becomes the star of the show. Actually the sleight is the means to the end like the filter on the lens of a camera to give a romantic effect and should slip by unnoticed. So work out your routines, make a story line, engage the audience to care about what's happening and go for the effect. Also make the route there as simple and uncluttered as possible so as not to arouse suspicion. I always say if the reaction is: How did you do that? you're doing it wrong. Remember no other performing art connects people like close up magic does.

[@travkel33]

I love the way you really want to change a quick card trick into something more... MAGIC

[@farhaankhan9916]

Sir u r actually the legend😍.

[@leolizard3152]

You’re so frigging awesome

[@doublem-magicmentalism5741]

I dont know if you had ever spoken with Juan Tamariz, but it would have been a really interesting one. I see so much of him in your way of thinking!!

[@zackbeck3891]

I've been really getting into magic and slights. This really helped a lot in a sense of my awkwardness preforming. I've really been looking into building my collection of decks; I just want to know the differences or pros/cons of Decks like the nocs between the basic bycicle Decks. Thanks in advace.

[@jakehuang1049]

I strongly, STRONGLY recommend having the majority of your cards being Tally-Ho fan backs. They look amazing, handle great, and are affordable, especially if you get them from Theory11. They don't draw too much extra attention. On the other hand, I like to have at least 3 very nice decks, maybe Monarchs or Memento Mori's for the days I'm feeling fancy. the more expensive decks will obviously handle nicer and look better but they draw unwanted attention during performances, especially if they're Theory11. Tally-Ho's, man. They're great.

[@timmyjames1116]

That ultimate pass was insane😄😄😄😄this is the best way to improve my double lift😀😀😀double lift is not hardand not easy it only care how Good you are in sleight😘😘😘😘😘

Brilliant teacher Alex, when r u coming to AUSTRALIA?

[@alexanderwolf4263]

This reminds me of an Derren Brown kinda atmosphere. Like his card trick smoke. I love that style. Chan Canasta did pretty outstanding effects with a deck of cards and he too was like no one else. I guess thats why there are so many haters. Because your diffrent.
