The Magicians Code

1. Practice every trick before you show it to anyone - even your parents! There’s an old saying, “A good magician never tells his secrets, and a bad magician doesn’t have to.” Practice, practice, practice.
2. Never tell your secrets! Once people know how to do a trick all the mystery is gone. Plus, if they can do the trick too, your talent and skill is no longer special to them.
3. Never repeat a trick for the same person. If they ask you to do it again, and they will, they are really looking for an opportunity to catch you the next time.
4. Be a good audience member. Now you possess some of magic’s coolest secrets, if you see someone performing you MUST treat that person the same way you want to be treated. In other words, don’t let them or the audience knows that you know how the tricks are done.
5. Most importantly, you should perform magic to entertain and mystify, not to show you are better than others. Remember, always strive to entertain your audience and treat them with respect. Without an audience, there is no magic.
