Daryl has the accolade of being 'the magicians' magician'... It is time to add 'Daryl: the
teachers's teacher...
As a practicing school teacher and an education researcher into
poor/best ways to demonstrate, coach and educate learners in a range of skills - including the
physical, conceptual and comprehension skills needed to master most sleights of hand - I recommend
Daryl's approach to teaching the learner: he is concise, frank, definite, detailed, comprehensive in
his teaching of the sponge ball moves advertised as being taught in this dvd.
All necessary
hand/finger/body movements are clearly demonstrated and shown from a variety of camera angles. Daryl
provides reasons and explanations for when and how he makes the moves he does.
When you buy
this - and any other Daryl dvd - make sure you set yourself up to use a 'Practice Diary' along with
a decent mirror (and video camera)...Daryl will get you practicing ... and wanting to look at your
own progress.

So I JUST finished watching the DVD for the FIRST time. (Yes I'm going to need to watch it over and
over to retain all the knowledge I... soaked... up. (sponge joke).
This DVD is incredible.
Daryl does an amazing job explaining sponge magic. He teaches you exactly what the DVD is called, he
teaches the essentials. This DVD I honestly thought would leave me with a "That's it?" though, but
boy was I wrong. I now know I need to watch this five of six times, with my sponges in hand,
constantly going over what has been taught to me before even considering moving on.
He
teaches you two routines, and a few concealments and vanishes. It honestly made me super happy to
see what could be done with the sponges. AND it also paves the road for his Master Course (which
teaches boat loads of new stuff), so I now know what my next purchase is going to be!
Get
this if you are new to Sponge Magic!

This video contains so much more than I was expecting...great information presented in a very direct
and clear way with so many different ideas and approaches to sponge ball magic and presentation.
If you are looking to learn sponge ball magic, this is an excellent place to start. Daryl's
presentation and explanations are as as instructive they are entertaining. The production value is
very good too, professional without a lot of fanfare and visual distractions.
