Here is Alex, a senior in high school, performing a magic trick.

Last year we performed at his academy and when we came back this year, Alex was able to show Christian some magic tricks.

He started to learn magic because he loved the magic that Christian had performed for him a year ago. He was inspired and started to study and learn. Alex performed three tricks and did a great job. He took the time to learn and practice and it was good.

What Alex is also learning is that even if you do not go on to pursue magic as a profession, his ability to perform magic can be invaluable in the business world. For instance, what if you have a very important business meeting and a colleague is late. Alex could pull out a deck of cards and do some tricks to not only pass the time, but to get everyone in a good mood, have fun, and forget that the meeting is delayed. Magic is versatile and knowing a handful of tricks is always a good idea.

Congratulations to Alex!
