Session 1: June 1, 2025 (4pm ET | NYC Time)
Knife Swallowing
A comical and surprising vanish of a knife that emphasizes the Slydini-inspired principle of building and breaking tension to create invisible moments.
Coins Through the Table (Classic Routine)
A six-coin routine where coins seemingly pass through the table in phases. This dazzling routine illustrates misdirection, tension control, and the Heng Ping Chien move with deliberate offbeats.
Wrong Way Coins
A powerful misdirection moment where coins appear to travel in the opposite direction (upwards). Tony uses this as a surprise moment to fool magicians who understand the base idea. This routine reinforces his "reflexive response theory" and the way he likes to create fooling tricks using instinct, not logic.
Coins Across (Standing Version)
Performed without a table, coins visually jump from hand to hand. Strategically uses misdirection, timing, and body positioning to execute secret transfers invisibly.
Torn and Restored Paper (and Variations)
A masterful torn and restored routine performed with a cigarette paper, sugar packet, or even matches. It cleverly combines classic techniques to create a visual miracle.
Flying Knots
Two scarves visibly tied by both magician and participant are placed in a glass. They then impossibly untie themselves and reappear tied in another glass.
Ghost Knot
A knot unties itself as if it's magically melting apart. Uses smooth, natural handling that is deceptively simple.
Session 2: June 8, 2025 (4pm ET | NYC Time)
Helicopter Card (Tony’s Streamlined Version)
A signed card vanishes from the participant’s hand and reappears face down in a separate packet.
Tabletop Change & Top Change Techniques
Tony introduces a visual, table-based top change and shares a timing-based, stand-up version inspired by David Roth. These are perfectly choreographed, casual and deceptive card switches.
Ring on String Prelude
Tony's expert approach to disarming participants before performing a ring flight routine. A borrowed ring is threaded onto one of two strings held in the participant’s hand. Without any visible moves, the ring ends up on the other string.
Jumbo Coin Routine
Using Slydini’s principles, Tony performs a beautiful sequence with a jumbo coin and silk. All of the taught moves focus on relaxation, timing, and covering methods with natural actions.
Scarf Through Arm
A silk visibly penetrates a participant’s clasped arms. Designed for stand-up or walkaround, this effect keeps participant's hands engaged and their attention focused.
Karate Card Catch
An invisible signed card is “thrown” by the participant and caught midair by the magician. This is a fun card sword-style moment without needing large props.
Bill and Silk Vanish
A borrowed bill is wrapped in a silk and visibly vanishes. Tony shares Slydini-style thumbtip handling and natural motion for vanishes with minimal tension. He also shares how to maintain strong audience management.
