ThenRevealing Mentalism is for you!

Revealing Mentalism is a two part, fully interactive course tutored by professional Mentalist Christopher Rawlins. This course will make you a better Mentalist. *

Throughout this two part course you will be taught the real secrets to performing a drawing duplication properly and effectively. Not only will you learn multiple methods and approaches to this classic plot, you will also be taught and have the opportunity to discuss the details that make this classic plot a modern miracle. For the first time Chris will teach, in detail how he performs the drawing duplication every time he works for real audiences.

Chris will teach six methodological approaches to the drawing duplication throughout the course, leaving no detail unexplored. Including approaches for the stage, parlour, casual and one on one performance environments. Approaches that allow you to duplicate drawn images over FaceTime / Skype and use everyday objects (like your ordinary billfold wallet) blank billets and envelopes.

To complement the in depth exploration of the drawing duplication, Chris will also be teaching a handful of his favourite creations to date. You will learn how to reveal thought of names, unspoken thoughts, and how to apply these methods and routines in real working environments effectively.

Chris will be sharing routines and approaches that he has not shared anywhere before throughout this course. This is a fully interactive course, allowing the opportunity for open discussions and questions in real time. Nothing will be held back, all questions answered.

The best part is, this methods are within everybody’s reach! Nothing in this course is difficult to execute in the real world, allowing you to focus on the important presentational details taught.

*If you apply everything taught throughout the course.
