A note from Lee Asher:
"Even though this is a technically challenging routine, and it’s not for the faint of heart, I’ll take you by the hand. I'll teach you exactly what to do (and what NOT to do in some cases).
My clearly written instructions guide you every step of the way, and Dan Buck's video provides visual examples. When finished, there will be little room for any confusion, doubt, and indecision. It’s almost as if I were right there with you."

Raised by a semi-professional sleight of hand artist, I was born into the art of magic.From that young boy understanding his talents along the journey to where I am now, it's been my duty to bring the most visual magic I can to the public eye.
I have been interested in the art of magic for over 20 years, and have been performing professionally for half that time.
My raw visual style of magic is easily recognized and universally acknowledged.>>
