Become a card trick pro with our intensive masterclass

By admin

Card magic is a fascinating art form that has captivated audiences for centuries. Whether it's a simple card trick or an elaborate illusion, card magic never fails to entertain and amaze. If you've ever wanted to learn the secrets behind these mind-boggling tricks, then a card magic masterclass is just the thing for you. A card magic masterclass is a course or workshop where experienced magicians teach aspiring magicians the intricacies and techniques of card magic. These classes are often led by renowned magicians who have perfected their craft over many years. They offer a unique opportunity for beginners to learn from the best in the business.


“Introducing THE best way to build a card magic foundation. Twenty years ago Roberto Giobbi, card magic’s most distinguished author, wrote Card College, a series of books now considered THE Bibles on card magic. This video series is the next step. In five volumes covering five major areas of card magic (Controls, Switches, Palms, Forces, False Shuffles), Giobbi teaches his favorite entries from Card College as well as new techniques not described in those volumes. If you have and study Card College, this is the PERFECT video companion. If you’ve never read Card College, this series is like having Mr. Giobbi in your living room giving you private instruction. You won’t just learn all the wonderful and important sleights in card magic, you’ll also learn the fine points, finesses, and subtleties of each one, so that you carry out the techniques the way connoisseurs do: with invisible precision. We release a small amount of original content each year, but Card Magic Masterclass will be an enduring resource – a legacy, perhaps – to magicians for years to come. Thanks to Roberto Giobbi, magicians have an at-home academy to master ALL the important techniques in card magic. It’s time to take your card magic seriously. It’s time to start your Card Magic Masterclass.”

I am darn near sure that Giobbi made the conscious and deliberate decision not to teach tricks along with the various controls, switches, false shuffles and cuts, palms and forces because this is not a tricks DVD project. Based on your excellent review and a few other online snippets of information, I made the decision to buy the Limited Edition here in the UK from Vanishing Inc UK at 100GBP.

Just thought I would let you know that the latest Real Magic Review is up on the Roberto Giobbi Card Magic Masterclass, from Vanishing Inc. As usual, pretty in-depth so should help make a decision. All completely unaffiliated.

Have a great day

Thanks Steve for the wonderful review. I didn't expect a bad review but loved your honesty on one or two issues which in your opinion were marginally less than perfect. Watching this has certainly helped me to make my mind up, (I love all things Giobbi)! and it seems that this set is not just an extension to the books but almost a "sequel" to the four dvd Card College set that I already have. Based on your excellent review and a few other online snippets of information, I made the decision to buy the Limited Edition here in the UK from Vanishing Inc UK at 100GBP. Once again, thanks for a great, if slightly biased but honest and very helpful review.

Posted: Nov 19, 2018 05:27 am Thanks for the detailed review. Any comments on the deluxe exclusive dvd ? Posted: Nov 20, 2018 04:27 pm

I bought the Collector's Edition here in the UK and all I can say is "WOW". From the luxury feel of the presentation box to the actual tuition on the discs, this really is a wonderful set. As yet I have only had a brief look at a few of the chapters on these discs and I am so impressed. The level of detail that Roberto goes into when describing a sleight or move is awesome. The mechanical/technical sleights are interwoven with ideas on psychology, misdirection and some quite simple presentation ideas which take the particular sleight to a whole new level. The relaxed but interesting way that he presents the work makes it totally inspiring and fun to watch and follow along. I have no regrets on deciding to buy the Limited Edition and I am really looking forward to taking the time to study this fully. EXCELLENT!

My apologies for not replying sooner. I don't seem to get email notifications!
Glad you liked the Deluxe, Ghost Counter. I was sent the downloads for review, but I'll be definitely getting the deluxe I reckon.

The box for the regular Card Magic Masterclass by Roberto Giobbi is just a regular cardboard slip case for 5 DVDs

Reviews for "Become a master of card magic with our in-depth masterclass"

1. Sarah - 1 star
I was really disappointed with "Card magic masterclass". The tricks taught were basic and seemed outdated. The explanations were not clear and left me confused. I was expecting to learn some advanced card tricks, but all I got was a bunch of beginners' level tricks that I already knew. Definitely not worth the money.
2. Mike - 2 stars
I have been a fan of magic for years and have bought numerous magic tutorials, but "Card magic masterclass" was a letdown. The instructor lacked enthusiasm and the videos were poorly edited. The pacing of the lessons was off, making it difficult to follow along. Some of the tricks required expensive gimmicks that were not mentioned in the course description. Overall, I felt like I wasted my time and money on this course.
3. Emily - 2 stars
As someone who has been practicing card magic for a while, I was excited to try out "Card magic masterclass". However, I found the training to be too simplistic and catered towards absolute beginners. The instructor spent too much time explaining basic card handling techniques that I was already familiar with. There were no new or advanced tricks taught that could challenge and improve my skills. I would not recommend this course to experienced card magicians looking to enhance their repertoire.
