Jonathan is a highly professional magician and excellent teacher. You won't use all of his tricks but the method, the thinking, the presentation can apply to your magic. PS: Andy is a little jet lagged in this one ;)

Jonathan combines excellent technical presentation with on-stage presentation style which multiplies the force of the technical execution

I'm going to give this five stars out of fairness to Jonathan. The material is good, well explained, and his comments about app magic in the second class are very much worthy of consideration. (Even if you don't own any of the apps that are discussed.)

However, on the Vanishing Inc side, I think this masterclass suffers. The video, and especially the audio, quality of the third session are quite poor. I know there's not much they can do about Zoom (other than ditching it, which they should consider) but post-processing the class for downloading, simply to level the audio, would be most welcome. Damien's audio is barely a whisper, and others are almost shouting. Also, apparently there was a big time gap between the recorded sessions and the live Q&A. This led to some unintended repetition. Before the Q&A, Vanishing should provide a list of the topics covered to the presenter so they can recall what has been previously discussed.

I really love magic and I buy a lot of magic because I love collecting effects. I am always looking for something that I feel will really blow people away and something I can do. I think Intuition is without a doubt one of the best tricks I have ever bought and I think the amount of knowledge that Jonathan shares is worth as much as the trick. This is going into my close up as a closer and I cannot imagine it not being there years from now because that's how good it is and. how well it's taught. This is a master magician sharing a phenomenal experience and I absolutely fell in love with it and 5 stars is not enough.

GREAT lecture. Good speaker. Gives plenty of details, but doesn't dwell on those details.

Very nice magic, clean effects.

Well worth the money.

I have followed Jonathan for years. Having him pull the curtain back on his routines is refreshing and knowing the "secrets" only enhances my respect for his brilliant showmanship

One of the BEST Masterclasses so far!!!

Jonathan's magic is incredible, and a lot of it is incredibly simple, and he's a fantastic and engaging teacher.

The effect "Intuition" in itself is worth the price of the masterclass! It's super easy and a total killer!

A wonderful masterclass that uses magic to engage the audience and the idea that magic is like Jazz is a wonderful concept to keep an audience engaged and also allow the magician some flexibility to use a method while thinking of the value of improvisation and true dialogue with the spectator. The concepts were clearly presented and can add depth the overall performance of a routine.

A fascinating peak into two world of "tech magic" from one of its principal innovators. Plus some excellent no-tech magic

What a pleasure to watch this presentation! Jonathan has such a pleasant personality and makes a truly strong connection to people -- he is a master with interpersonal communication skills. As for his ideas, methods, and presentation of magic -- simply first class! Do not miss this masterclass!

Jonathan did an amazing first lesson. His enthusiasm and his expertise showed through in his remarkable routines. His teaching skill and his attention to detail made this lesson accessible to his viewers. I really appreciated his pace and felt that following along was made simple. This is highly recommended for anyone interested in excellent close up magic!

Jonathan Levitt is absolutely a pro! This class has easy skills to learn as well as some self-working effects. It's well worth the time and effort to learn from him. He makes it truly clear that it is not about the magic, instead it's all about the presentation and connecting with the audience. He demonstrates this extremely well in all his routines. Another example of how Vanishing, Inc. does not dissappoint!

  • Bernhard asks: Do you need to purchase the stranger to get the full value out of class #2?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: Absolutely not. It's great though!
  • Anthony asks: So... you say that one need not purchase The Visitor to get value from the second session, but according to the trailer, that session is all about The Visitor. I do not own, nor do I intend to purchase, The Visitor, so color me confused. I'm concerned about the value for my purchase here and any insight would help.

    • 1. Anthony answers: Apologies on misnaming the effect in my initial question. I couldn't find an option to edit, so obviously I meant The Stranger, but you knew that, right?!
    • 2. Jonathan Levit (creator) responds: Hello, Anthony! Thanks for the great question. In the second session, yes, I do spend some time talking about the Stranger, specifically. However, within that talk, there are points made about the approach to building a routine that is effective. And, then, I go on to discuss tech, in general and in more specifics. It's a comprehensive discussion that I believe will be of interest to many.

  • David asks: The Stranger is a part of this class, but doesn't look like it's even available to buy. It's out of stock? Will it be made available?
