Hi Folks

I'm new round here, so I'd better let y'all know about me!

I'm a hypnotist, mentalist and close-up magician from Hertfordshire U.K. just turning semi-pro in the performance area.

Performance wise, I am mostly doing close-up/walk around stuff at the moment, though I have done my first stage show recently an am keen to do more.

I have been performing mentalism for about 5 years, and that is what I really love, but have been getting more into close-up card magic recently largely for commercial reasons.

I have always been a believer that magic and mentalism don't mix, but now I am mixing them I am reviewing that belief. I think as long as you are doing the right kind of magic and manage the transitions right it can work just fine.

Big influences for me are Richard Osterlind, The Derren, Benjamin Earl, Kenton Knepper, Luke Jermey, Banachek, Paul Brook, Phill Smith, Anthony Jacquin and Lee Smith.

Aside from performing I work as a Hypnotherapist and teach both Hypnosis and NLP.

I am a member of Magical Mayhem and Psycrets.

Right - that's probably enough of that!

All the very best

James Tripp
