How to Build Bulletproof Sleight of Hand Without Feeling Overwhelmed
Rated 4.9/5 10,000+ students taught New routine every week Cancel any time

Most magicians never reach the level they want - not because they lack effort, but because they're teaching themselves from random YouTube videos with no order, no structure, and no consistency. The Magic Vault fixes that. New tricks and techniques drop every single week, in the right order, building on the last. That consistency and structure make it the most effective training system ever for reaching the skill level you've only ever dreamed of.

What Members are Saying

Honest feedback from magicians who joined the Vault and taken their magic to the next level

Magic Vault has been an excellent learning resource for me as a beginner with no real background in magic. The quality of teaching is far better than anything I've found on free YouTube videos. Definitely worth the monthly fee.

I've really enjoyed The Vault so far. It focuses on real sleight-of-hand instead of just easy tricks. The teaching is clear and practical, and I've already improved my handling. Definitely worth it if you want to take your card magic more seriously.

The Magic Vault is awesome!

The Magic Vault is awesome! As Matt says, it's a curriculum not just a bunch of random cards tricks. He starts with the basics, laying a solid foundation. His lessons build off the previous ones. I'm retired and this is a great new hobby. Thanks, Matt! I hope to catch a live act of yours someday.

This course is a BANGER!

Well, what can I say? The Vault, and specifically, Matt, have given my life a new passion when I thought I couldn't find that kind of thing again. I got into card magic last summer and, while I learned quite a handful of tricks, it wasn't until I found Matt's YouTube channel and learned about The Vault, that I started to actually LEARN. I waited.... and waited.... and waited.... seeing Matt promote the Vault with each video thinking, "Could it really make that much a difference?" Well, the answer is a RESOUNDING YES! I joined less than a week ago I'm already pulling off maneuvers that look like wizardry to my friends and family, and that's just after the 1st module, lol. Seriously, get in here and get to learning. You'll be glad you did!

Talk About Value!

Think about this: for a mere $24.99 per month, the Vault gives you over a dozen tricks...that's less than $2/trick. And the video tutorials are easy to understand and implement with just a little practice...and some don't even require practice, they just work automatically. If you want to learn magic, subscribing to the Vault is a "no-brainer."

Awesome Start to My Card Magic Journey

What an amazing course to help me get started on my journey of learning card magic - at the age of 51. It's about time I started!

The course covers the basics of card handling (that even I could learn) and then gradually increases in complexity. I now have a few great tricks I can show my family!

I highly recommend this course for someone getting started, but I wish I started learning earlier! So get it sooner rather than later!

Way Better Than Youtube

Since I subscribed in April, I have been amazing anyone who will sit for a few minutes and watch the impossible become possible. Restaurant staff, doctors, nurses (I recently spent 11 days in the hospital) friends and family most of whom ask to see my "new tricks." I love to see their faces when the trick works.

Absolut famous! The individual tricks are really well divided into the performance, the required grips, and then the explanation. I also love how everything is so well organized and builds on each other—it’s genius! And I have the feeling that Matt is showing it only to me 😁

I love the way the tricks are broken down and explained. Matt does a great job of walking you through it step by step. The only wish I have is that he would show how to flow from one trick to another.

A great, systematic, thorough approach!

I’ve always loved Matt’s tricks as they are fun to learn and perform. The Vault structure provides an added way for me to fill in a lot of my gaps. I haven’t yet had as much time as I wish I had, but is great to have the courses here all the time for me to pick up where I left off (and go back and review when necessary). It’s a great, systematic, thorough approach!

I love the Vault so far. It has taught me so much in such a little time and I have truly seen improvement. The only downside is sometimes a certain topic won't interest me the most but that's not your fault.

Card Magic - Everything you need to know in one place.

Matt starts you off with the basics and builds from there. You need no prior experience with card magic but in no time at all you will be performing tricks which leave your friends speechless. I had no previous experience when I started (I'm in my 60s) but picked this up quickly. The sleights do require practice but they are easy to learn and well worth the effort.
