Did you ever wish you could use MAGIC to solve your business problems? Well, I am a magician! Do you need help inspiring your team to work together more effectively? I use magic and juggling to make it more fun!My specialty is Magic with a Message, in which I use the fascination and fun of MAGIC to educate and inspire,not just to entertain.Much of my career has been devoted to motivational and inspirational team building, keynotes, workshops and retreats for corporations and associations all over the world. I have been privileged to speak and perform in Germany, France, Korea, Vietnam. New Zealand, Canada, and throughout the United states.Juggling builds confidence, and i can teach everyone on your team how to juggle in less than an hour!I learned how to juggle in 1955 at the age of 12, and am now a Certified Juggling Instructor who has taught thousands of people of all ages and abilities how to master the art of juggling. My first book, Bungling Juggling, was published in 1964, and is now updated and available as a Mini Book. I still juggle in all of my magic shows, and often end by juggling three clubs while balanced on a Rolla Bolla, a stunt which I call, "The Rolla Bolla of Death!" My early performance props are on display at the Museum of Juggling History in Middleton, Ohio.Do yuo have kids who could use a self-esteem boost?I started Fantastic Magic Camp in 1993, the year I turned fifty.
