The Magic Apprentice Class introduces the
beginning student to the world of magic.
Magic Apprentice classes meet
once a month for nine months. The Class Fee is $15.00 for the
first class and $10.00 for each class thereafter. This fee
covers all class materials including magic text book (A $30.00 Value),
all lecture notes, all class supplies including at least one new magic
effect per class and hands-on instruction by accomplished professional
level magicians.
In addition, the class fees will be used to pay the first year's international and
local M.Y.I. and I.B.M. membership and one year's subscription to The Linking Ring,
the prestigious I.B.M. magic journal - A $65.00 value - for each full
course graduate.
All fees paid towards the Apprentice Class benefit the student
entirely. This format provides parents with an easy
pay-as-you-learn method to cover all costs related to Magic
Youth International
membership.
Each one hour session session covers magic history,
magic ethics and a hands-on lesson on one specific aspect of magic.
Each student will be given a unique magic prop and a number of
routines to practice for the next session. |
