Do you remember when you were a kid, and you saw a magician perform some tricks? Maybe it was at a party, or on a stage down at the community center. Most kids are impressed at least a little bit, and make a decision to somebody learn magic tricks and become as good as this guy up on stage. However, most of us don't follow through on those dreams, and quickly give them up for other things that seem more important at the time.
If you still have a desire somewhere to be able to walk up to strangers on the street and quickly captivate their attention and lead it in such a way as to powerfully impress them and their friends, then you've come to the right place. I'll give you a couple of tips to restart that dream that you once had. The good news is that it is much easier than you thought.
You'll need two skills to be able to do this. One of course, being simple magic tricks. Card tricks, coin tricks and other sleight of hand tricks are fairly easy to learn. What separates out the truly impressive magicians from those in training is the next skill you need to learn.

Most every magician today has mastered this art early in his or her career. With a good story and "patter" that you deliver while doing your tricks, the crowd will easily be mesmerized.
The best place to learn public speaking is by doing public speaking. There are many clubs you can join, or you can take a course at your local community college.
