hey guys and gals

Postby lukeclough » Feb 8th, '10, 20:18



Hi everyone,

I'm Luke and am a newbie to this scene. I've always loved magic and could watch it for hours, even days (and have done recently lol).

I'm a hypnotherapist by trade, and joined a meet up group for hypnotists, magicians and mentalists towards the end of lat year, and managed to meet some amazing guys who have given me all sorts of tips. Its fair to say I definitely caught the magic 'bug'!!!

I'm now learning my tricks from all the great recommended books and dvds and gradually starting ot fool people, and what a buzz it gives you.

I now count myself lucky enough to call people such as Lee smith, Gary jones, and James Brown as friends of mine and manage to speak to them regularly, and even meet for a beer or 10!!!

I look forward to meeting lots of new friends here.

    Great to see you on Talk Magic Luke.


    Luke is a great guy and very keen to learn, and he has been learning from all the best sources and picked up the correct books.

    He has not rushed into anything and I am sure we have the makings of a great maigican.

    Great to see he has joined TM and as he's also Hypno guy I am sure he will have plenty to share.

    Lee.

    Thanks Lee,

    I can honestly say you've helped me more than anyone else! you're a true star! i learnt more the past week when we met up than any book has taught me though! Thank you so much!

    I am recommending everyone to buy a copy of your lecture notes, and more importantly, your new STEP dvd from rsvp.

    Gary Jones.

    2 well-known performers (here on TM, at the very least), both of whom are members here.

    I'll leave you to google their official sites, but these links should help you for now. :)

    Mind you, if you don't know me then you wouldn't have known that, so my fault entirely.
