I have two DVDs that teach the muscle pass, and I also looked online to see how they do it, but the
difference in those people and Jay is all in the presentation. In Jays DVD he literally shows you
MANY different uses, handlings and shows the reactions of live people on the street. The other DVDs
and People I have seen do it only show two hands on the screen and a mono-tone voice of
instructions. You can tell Jay loves his job and whomever is reading this, you must really be
considering this dvd. This DVD is BEAUTIFUL and Jay teaches perfect placement. If you can find a
coin you can get a box of play poker chips at wal mart or some place like that. Thanks Jay. Keep em
comin'. (P.S. pair this DVD with "In the Beginning There Were Coins" and you will be doing all kinda
crazy coin tricks.

Loved the trick! Unfortunately, by having smaller hands than most, I developed a bad condition
called "trigger-finger" from it. Had to have surgery to correct it. Other than that, it was worth
the money to find out the "secret" and all of the other "things" that can be done with it.

For a bit of backround, I would like to say that before recieving this DVD, I was already doing the
muscle pass for years. Something about mine thought was NOT up to the calibre of people like Jay
Noblazada or some of my friends. Because of this fact, I needed some help. This offered EXACTLY what
I needed.
Basically, this DVD is rich in good performances of clever applications of this
move. What this DVD really excels in however (for me anyway) is the subtleties that it it teaches.
These subtleties that he teaches are REALLY what makes this DVD worth the money and really gave me
the tips that I needed to raise my muscle pass (that I had performed for years) another good 6
inches!
Not to mention, this DVD is also nicely long and filmed in complete HD. I really
couldn't reccomend this DVD enough for someone who wants to learn or better their muscle pass.

But this is a great DVD on the muscle pass. I think everyones hands are a bit different and you may
have to work on the gripping of the coin to make the pass. Practice will help you get it but do not
be surprised if it takes a while. It is a lot of fun to use once you have it down.

Very useful slight and takes a lot of painstaking practice. If you're not dedicated enough to
practicing it, then you might not like it. It's not exactly a trick you can learn after a day's
practice but easily learned through continuous fiddling with the coin in your hand and style. I
found that there may be a little problem with hand sizing but I have small hands and worked fine
with me. An overall great coin slight, painful to learn, but you get so much back in audience
reactions.

I've worked in the house of Brazilian magic, bought several DVD's, I learned great magic, but
nothing compares to this DVD. Perfect execution, if you are just starting out in magic and learn all
that is taught on this DVD, will have compensated for years and years of learning. Training,
training, training is what you need after buying this DVD. I'm totally satisfied. Thank you.

I have always been interested in learning the muscle pass but, there is almost no material out there
teaching it. Penguin delivers a stellar product. Not only do you get tips and instruction on the dvd
but, Jay offers some pretty decent routines as well. Helping it to transcend from a moment of
strange to an effect that can stand on its own. As if that wasn't enough you also get a free poker
chip to practice with. What are you waiting for?Add to cart!!

This is a great video, a great trick, and a very versatile technique.
But, this is hours
and hours and hours of practice. Likely months before you’re able to really perform this.
If you have the dedication, get this video. But, at the end of the day, this will be one of the
toughest techniques to master. It’s not complicated, but it is tough.
