     Magical Workshops and Seminars

There has always been a need for new and exciting educational programs. These courses were designed for conventions & seminars as workshops, school teachers, law enforcement, firefighters, youth pastors, and other educators. Magicians can also benefit by adding educational messaging to enhance their existing programs.  Participants can learn how to work with different types of audiences, audience warm-ups, magic techniques and theories, how to perform magic, and ways to include magic in your presentations. Magic organizations and resources are also provided.

The following workshops can be arranged (No magic experience is necessary!)

  • Putting a Little Magic in Your Life
  •  
  • Wouldn't it be fun to be the center of attention for a few minutes or hours?  Some people do not feel very comfortable engaging in conversations at social functions, but just suppose people came up to YOU and started the discussion?  This exciting workshop gives you the tools to do so with many curiosities designed to attract others to you.

  • Putting a Little Magic in Your Business

  • Do you have a great product or service?  Are you able to get people to take notice of it?  It’s time to stand out amongst the crowd in a rather unique way by adding a little magic to your business!   Learn how to engage clients and get your message across.  Chris Manos will introduce you to some magical time-tested secrets that really work in any personal or business environment.  No experience is necessary.

  • The Secret Behind The Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew Series
  •  
  • Originally designed for the cruise industry's education/seminars at sea type programs, Chris shares a few stories of his encounter with the author of the Hardy Boy's series many years ago.  As a child, Chris found his love of reading through these series and other children's fiction created by the Stratemeyer Syndicate.  This inspired Chris to really dig into the secrets of the success of the series millions of children loved so much.
