Hi, if you're wanting to learn cards get yourself a copy of Royal Road to Card Magic and an ordinary deck of cards. There's enough there to keep you going for ages.

Hello! i began with the following books:

Royal Road To Card Magic
Bobo's modern coin magic
13 Steps to mentalism.

There are now many good DVDs on card magic

Royal Road to card magic (5 DVD L & L edition)
Born to perform

I would get some normal bicycle cards and slowly beginning the Royal road book. This will teach you many things you need to know. If you want to buy a gimmick deck to do a trick right away then maybe buy a stipper deck or a svengali deck. You can get inexpensive booklets to show you how to use these decks.

When you begin to study a book or DVD take your time. Slowly work through each section and try not to move on until you are happy you have understood and can perform the material.

Hi and welcome, if you need any local help, send a PM to titanas - he's from your part of the globe and might be able to offer some good advice.

guys thank you so much for your answers really appreciate it
