Learn from the expert on how to perform many magic tricks over the course of just one month. Each student will receive a deck of cards, a set of styrofoam cups, envelopes to repeat the prediction trick, and small objects for the vanish. This magic kit will be given to the students at the end of each lesson to make sure they have the props they need for the 1 hour lesson. WEEK 1 - The Vanish: Students will learn one of the basics of Street Magic...vanish an object like a coin, a sponge or a ping pong ball right in front of someone. This requires beginner’s level dexterity, once learned it can be used in any setting with a number of different objects. WEEK 2 - The Prediction: An envelope sits on the table. A spectator chooses a card. The card is chosen randomly. Amazingly, the envelope contains a piece of paper predicting the chosen card. This requires no skill. Students will learn an amazing card trick (which looks like mind reading), and will also learn the importance of presentation, directing the audience, and speaking with the audience. WEEK 3 - The Mystery of the 3 Cups: This classic of Street Magic is presented with a new twist, using styrofoam cups. This effect does not require a lot of skill, and builds on some of the skills taught in weeks 1 and 2, including the basic vanish and presenting a trick to an audience. WEEK 4 - The Mind Bender: Using an ordinary deck of cards, a spectator chooses a card, replaces it in to the deck, and the student will then deal out a pile of cards. What happens next will amaze even a sophisticated audience, as the student announces that the next card that they turn over will be the chosen card, and amazingly, that’s exactly what happens.

Pre-Karate (4-12 years old) Karate is one of the best ways to encourage self-esteem. Because it focuses on selfimprovement, rather than on competition, kids support and learn from each other. This is a sport that teaches the value of respect, discipline and perseverance. Children want to focus on energy and feel good about themselves and their accomplishments. Youth Karate (5-18 years old) Karate skills help children build coordination, agility, strength and poise. The confidence gained through karate also helps foster a strong self-image. Adult Karate (15 years-adult) This program offers the highest quality instruction for the student and the business person. If you would like to develop your agility, stamina and coordination, join us for our weekly work-outs. Self-Defense (14 years-adult) Participants learn and practice a variety of strategies to be better prepared if faced with uncomfortable, intrusive, or dangerous situations with people they know as well as with strangers. Physical drills which improve speed, agility, strength, endurance, and coordination will enhance overall fitness. This class is designed to be both challenging and fun while learning the necessary skills to effectively defend oneself. n On your first day of class, please wear comfortable fitness clothes. Please see the instructor to purchase the mandatory uniform and equipment (ranges from $20-$30). Sensei Linda Donner Technical Director/Advisor: J. B.
