The Young Magicians Club is a youth initiative of The Magic Circle, the world's premier magical society. Formed in 1996, the mission of the club is to promote the performance of magic by the young people of today (aged between 10 and 18) and encourage them in their chosen art form so that they can grow into the fine magicians of tomorrow.

To do this The Magic Circle uses its vast knowledge and experience to instruct, encourage and entertain the members of The Young Magicians Club.

Who are we?

The Young Magicians Club welcomes enthusiastic people who want to learn not just "how it's done" but how to do it properly! With exciting features in our bi- monthly magazine "Secrets" on performance tips, tricks and routines together with our regular "hands on workshops" (mostly held at the amazing The Magic Circle Headquarters, the Centre for the Magic Arts in London) hosted by some of the best professional magicians in the world, we can help turn your enthusiasm into a polished professional looking act, providing you are willing to put in the research and hours of practice necessary. Dominic Wood did, now he has his own TV show! Could you be next?

The security of our members is paramount. Because of this, the following measures are in place for all YMC activities:

• All Young Magicians Club organisers are police checked for the member's security
• All workshops are covered by Public Indemnity insurance
• A qualified First Aid practitioner is on hand throughout all workshops
• The privacy and emotions of all members are respected at all times - no member is ever asked to do something they would rather not do (although we do encourage members to perform publicly)

When you are a Young Magicians Club member you get:

• A membership pack including a membership card, badge, certificate and free magic trick
