What a magic team building workshop is
A Working Magician Teaches Your Team To Do Magic
A working magician comes to your team and teaches them magic. Your people learn it, practice it, and perform it themselves before the session ends.
This is not a show your team watches. The magician is there to teach, and the room spends most of the session with cards and coins in their own hands. What makes it team building is the last part, when your people perform for each other.
We bring it to you — your office, a hotel meeting room, or wherever your team is already meeting in Orlando. Every magician on the roster can run the program, so it schedules around your day rather than the other way round.
Who teaches it
Every Magician On The Roster Is Personally Auditioned
Every magician on the Orlando roster is personally auditioned by Kostya Kimlat, called “one of the best magicians we have in the world today” by Penn Jillette. Kostya fooled Penn & Teller on Fool Us and has performed in more than 200 cities on five continents for Fortune 500 companies, NASA, Google, and Disney.
Kostya teaches the keynote and workshop version himself. For a standard team session, any performer on the Orlando roster can run the program.
Why it works for the whole team
Nobody Sits This One Out
Most team-building days fail the same way. They ask for a narrow kind of participation — physical, competitive, or emotionally exposing — and then quietly leave out whoever cannot or will not supply it. The people who opt out are the ones who get noticed.
A workshop asks for none of that. Learning a sleight happens sitting down, with your hands, at whatever pace you want. Nobody needs to be fit. Nobody confesses anything. Nobody is the punchline. The colleague with no coordination and the colleague who dreads group activities learn the same effect, and both get the same moment when it works on somebody.
It also holds the people who arrive skeptical. The secret turns out to be the easy part. The difficulty is holding a group’s attention and carrying on when something goes wrong in front of an audience, which is a genuinely interesting problem, and the same one your team has in a pitch.
How a session runs
How An Orlando Workshop Session Runs
The magician performs first, so the room sees the standard before anybody attempts it. The teaching follows: a curated set of effects, each demonstrating one principle, broken down and handed over.
Then it’s hands-on. People work in pairs, try the moves, get corrected, and try again. The session closes with your team performing for each other.
That closing round is where the team building happens. Standing up and doing something in front of colleagues carries real stakes, and getting through it together is the part people bring up months later.
What your team learns
What Your Team Actually Learns
- How a handful of magic effects actually work, taught step by step
- Sleight of hand your people practice with their own hands, seated, at their own pace
- How attention moves around a room, and how a performer directs it
- The principles behind apparent mind reading and how a mentalist reads a person
- How to present something so a group stays with you to the end
What your team takes back to work
Practice At Things They Already Need On A Normal Tuesday
Learning to perform gives people practice at things they already need on a normal Tuesday.
- Attention. Holding a group’s focus, and noticing when you have lost it.
- Observation. Reading what the person across from you is actually responding to.
- Clear explanation. Teaching a colleague something they do not yet understand.
- Composure. Carrying on when something goes wrong in front of an audience.
- Shared credit. Setting a colleague up so the moment belongs to them.
Nobody leaves a professional magician. They leave able to perform something they could not do that morning, having done something difficult together, which is what most team-building days are aiming at.
Formats
One Hour, Half Day, Or Keynote Plus Workshop
- One hour. Fits after a dinner or inside a conference agenda.
- Half day. More effects, more practice, a longer closing round.
- Keynote plus workshop. Kostya presents to the full room, then a smaller group works hands-on.
Which one fits depends on the size of your group and how much of the day you can give it. Tell us both and we will recommend one rather than sell you the longest.
What Our Clients Say
“After several long days of meetings... having a break and enjoy magic was great. Jimmy was very entertaining, engaged with the team and left the team talking about it several days after the event.”
Igal Kaptsan
Google“We booked Terry w/ See Magic Live for a corporate dinner event, and it was a hit! Not only was his magic impressive, but his humor and personality also made an impact as well. The guests were fooled and buzzing about the event after. The booking process was seamless thanks to Erika. This team is extremely knowledgeable on magic recommendations and have great communication. If you’re looking for interactive magic for an event, highly recommend!”
Lauren Lane
Google“We had Sebastian Gerhardt at an event for our customers, and he was absolutely amazing. He read the room perfectly, did up close and whole group magic tricks that really wowed the crowd. He also led off our presentation, which was an amazing suggestion by him and it got the crowd engaged in the rest of the presentation. Erika was amazing to work with on the booking side, and Kostya was great as well. Thank you!”
