School of Magic Arts is amped for our best season yet: it’s time for Build Your Own Magic Summer 2023!
Students will meet once a week in two hour classes to construct magic props and learn magic effects. From hand props to large stage illusions, SOMA magicians will explore the inner workings of stage magic, build their own magic show, and unlock the best summer ever. Everything they need for this STEAM powered 12 weeks will be shipped to your door prior to the first day of class.
Build Your Own Magic is a perfect introduction to stage magic and School of Magic Arts, as well as a blast for current and returning students. A great supplement to in-person camps! Vacation schedules are no problem. School of Magic Arts classes include an exclusive library of recorded lessons to get them up to speed on anything they might miss in class, and their kits can travel with them anywhere there is internet access. Keep minds engaged and learning over summer break!
Our magicians are also trained educators, so every child feels safe, supported, and gently guided through challenges.
Each student receives a curated magic kit with professional props—built to support hundreds of tricks as they grow in skill.
Our password-protected Student Library includes Zoom links, tutorials, and weekly updates—so kids (and caretakers) can jump in with zero tech stress.
We understand the challenge of finding magic tricks suitable for kids that strike the perfect balance of satisfaction and entertainment.
Our magic has been carefully curated to unearth the most enjoyable and challenging tricks tailored specifically for this age group.
The magic supply kit includes a standard deck of cards, a 12 inch black silk, magician's rope, four sponge balls, two rubber bands, a coin, a small notebook, and pencil.
My kids loved it. They were able to follow along and learn the magic trick. :)

Brian and Annie are remarkable instructors who combine their infectious joy for magic with immeasurable patience, kindness, and support for their students. I cannot recommend SOMA enough! Our daughter has gained confidence and learned a new set of skills that will remain with her for years to come.

The engagement! H. had a blast and can’t wait to practice his new skills. The descriptions and oath and history were perfect for a first class. Great content!
