Extended Master Class - Las Vegas

April 26 - May 2, 2010

(Monday through Sunday)
Tuition: $1500.00

If you are looking for detailed, personal instruction in an intimate and safe setting, consider attending a McBride Master Class, magic's most progressive learning experience.

The seven-day Master Class: Since nearly everyone who has attended a McBride Master Class tells us that it should have lasted longer than three days, we have now initiated the new seven day McBride Master Class which allows even more personal time to be spent focusing on each student's work. There will also be two events to which you may bring a guest or family member. The seven-day class also includes tickets for one of the major Las Vegas magic shows, including Lance Burton and Mac King, and relaxed time with the stars who will be available to answer your questions.

Tuition: $695.00

In response to many requests, we are happy to present our fifth Master Class aimed exclusively at mentalists. Jeff McBride's Master Class is the premier program in contemporary magic where YOU and your performance take center stage in a safe and supportive setting.

At this Special Master Class all of the performances and all of the talks and breakout sessions will be on the subject of MENTALISM. Eugene and Jeff will share their thoughts on Mentalism for Magicians. And our Special Guest for the Class will be ROSS JOHNSON, perhaps the most successful corporate mentalist in the United States. This is a RARE appearance for Ross because he does not write books and rarely speaks to groups of mentalists. We are thrilled to be able to spend several days with him finding out what has made him so successful.
