Need some help.

I want to learn some magic. If you have some websites where they have tutorials on how to do magic can you post it here please? But I don't mean magic tricks like the ones where you pull a rabbit out of a hat. I don't want to use any props...

SinBin. We don't expose magic here. Online tutorials are poison. Just buy the effects if you want to be serious about magic.

Also an Intorduction would have been suitable.

Hi Canthya - welcome to Talk Magic. I apologise for the rudeness of young Michael.

He is right in one respect though, that we won't point you to any online resources for learning magic as we feel that when magic is easily available like this it is too easy for people with no real interest in magic to just go and find secrets.

The best advice I can give you is to find some good magic books and start there. If you can't afford books, then a trip to the local library is a must.

Do you know the sort of magic you want to do? Cards? Coins? Impromptu with everyday objects? If you let us know then we can recommend some essential reading for you.

Some good general books on magic are, "Mark Wilsons Complete Course" and one of my favourites, Nicholas Einhorns "Encyclopedia of Sleight of Hand and Magic", that really is a wonderful book.

There is going to be no quick "online" solution though. To perform magic well you will need to put in the time and effort to learn.

Hello,

Yes, I also apologize for Rude Me. I shouldn;t have been so rude to you, as you are new. I am sorry.
