Woody Aragón Masterclass

Masterclass by Woody Aragon ( - normally $75.00)

This exclusive download offers a massive variety of amazing and unique card tricks from one of the legends of the Spanish School of Magic.

Woody Aragón is a true wizard with a deck of playing cards. This prolific creator has developed some of the most incredible card magic we've ever seen. His effects have been performed by magicians all over the world, most famously by Penn and Teller, as well as Dynamo during his “Magician Impossible” TV magic series. From The Magic Castle to magic conventions everywhere, Woody is also a seasoned performer that has amassed a wealth of information that he is eager to share.

It is such a treat to have Woody Aragón create a special Vanishing Inc. Masterclass download. You get two full-length lectures and a special additional bonus video. There is a ton of exciting new material and some old favorites for both close up magic shows and stage and parlor magic shows. This is a Masterclass you won't want to pass up on.

Session 1

  • Direct Spelling - After the deck is shuffled by several spectators, a value and a suit is named. When that card is spelled to, the last card dealt matches the thought-of card. This is a direct, fooling and practical card trick that can easily slot into any repertoire.
  • The Poker Hand (Performance Only) - Without wanting to ruin the surprise, you will get to see a fantastic, visual packet trick performed... but you'll have to wait until the second session to learn it!
  • Location at Number - This effect draws together two old ideas from Partagas and Robert Houdin. A selected card, which is lost into the deck) is located at a number chosen by the spectator.
  • Guessing by Colors - The deck is separated into reds and blacks. Somehow, Woody is able to divine specific cards, in spite of the incredibly fair conditions.
  • The Mentalist Plus - This is one of Woody's favorite tricks to perform. It has a lovely callback to the first spelling trick. A card is divined in a particularly fooling way.
  • Coincidences by Incidences - Never before taught on video, you will learn Woody's version of the classic "Total Coincidence" plot with a single deck. With several surprises, and an amazing climax, this is widely-regarded as the highlight of the entire Masterclass.

Session 2

  • Triumph in Continuity - Woody has spent years seeking the perfect Triumph routine. By combining Dai Vernon's classic Triumph with a very powerful concept from Arturo de Ascanio, this routine is a masterclass in construction and effect. This is the same Triumph routine that Woody uses in his professional shows.
  • The Poker Hand (Explanation) - You saw it performed in the first download. Now is your chance to learn this fantastic effect, which uses regular playing cards.
  • The Human Balance - Learn the effect that Woody uses to close his stage shows. The premise of this effect revolves around weighing cards... and it's as intriguing and off-the-wall as it sounds.
  • An Examination of Creativity - To top off this jam-packed Masterclass, Woody analyzes what it takes to effectively structure a routine. He talks about creativity and offers tips for how you can create amazing magic with just a deck of cards.

Bonus Q&A

  • A recording of a live Zoom call where Woody answered questions from Vanishing Inc. Monthly members that got to watch the lectures live.

This is by far the best masterclass on the site. Woody is one o the best magicians in the world and besides the tricks you learn, which are simply incredible, he also goes in depth on creating a cohesive simple plot for the audience to follow. You get to see a whole show that he created specially for this masterclass and then not only does he break down how to do each trick but he explains why he chose this trick for this show to make it super cohesive and no fumbling. Overall this is a fantastic masterclass and definitely worth your money. I would also highly recommend you pick up the masterclass by John Gustaferro another amazing masterclass.

As always Woody does not dissapoint. He starts with a mini show that is indeed a masterclass in construction and composition. After that, a brief explanation on the external life/ inner life of tricks, quite clear and to the point. The tricks are very good and for me the matching routing is well worth the price of admission.
Very good!

Amazing stuff! Woody's style and sense of humor is infectious, and his explanations will make you smile. He has an extraordinary ability to make what should be transparently obvious extremely deceptive. I'll be watching this one a lot not just for the overt tutelage, but for clues as to his unique manner of disarming and charming an audience into being fooled.

The wonder value for me from this lecture was the explanation of the phases and variety in the tricks that are part of a total performance. Changing methods to keep interest in the presentation of a 3 or 4 phase trick was also excellent.

Of all of the MasterClass segments, this is one of the top five. Woody explains some outstanding thinking on routining and structure that make the whole month’s purchase worthwhile, but there’s this poker trick that you’d pay full price anyway….so it’s a must to watch this.

Woody Aragon is an absolute master! I am so happy with the first masterclass session and can’t wait for the follow up. I am a huge fan of not only Woody himself but also the entire masterclass series. It’s worth every penny and much much more.

Only 4 hours, not "4.5+ hours of content each month".
You get less than promised!

Rather long winded and boring
