Kainoa Harbottle Masterclass Live 3

Hawaii’s Kainoa Harbottle is regarded as one of the world’s finest coin magicians, and what we like best about him is that he’s the “complete” coin magician. That is, his skill is world-class, and he does all sorts of unusual, beautiful moves with grace and precision. But Kainoa is also wildly clever, and he has created a mountain of tremendous coin material. Finally, Kainoa is a relaxed, funny performer, and his presentations are often the best part of his magic. We’re delighted to welcome Kainoa as a Masterclass Live Instructor, and he will focus on a mixture of new and published routines, as well as material that will challenge experts, and other things that will be achievable for those who have never done a coin trick in their lives.

Week Three: (November 21st 2021, 4pm ET) – Zoom Call

This live question and answer session will be focused on how to be creative with your wizardry, no matter what props you favor. Using various examples from coin magic, Kainoa will walk you through his own methods of developing and honing material ranging from single effects to acts. Some of his methods are painfully obvious while others will send you into an existential crisis (as they often do him). This session is really about becoming comfortable with creativity by understanding that it is not so much a contiguous process but an example of punctuated equilibrium, where the fits and starts of the hands and the leaps and bounds of the mind can ultimately be molded into the illusion of a coherent whole.
