If you've seen Alex Geiser's magic with coins, odds are you've been impressed. After you witness The Prodigy, you'll be blown away. The Prodigy is Alex's most closely-guarded routine, crafted and refined over a number of years, and shown only to a select group of people. By seeing this DVD, you become one of the chosen.

The world's most elegant coin routine.

With a wave of your hand, 4 coins instantly and silently appear on your outstretched palm. You then slowly and carefully make the coins vanish one-at-a-time. Finally, the coins reappear in an equally miraculous manner.

There are no gimmicks, no extra coins, no smoke, and no mirrors. Just 4 coins and 2 hands. The Prodigy involves advanced sleight-of-hand techniques that you can use at any time in any venue. While this is not an easy routine to achieve, once mastered you will have a true gem in your magical arsenal. Every sleight you need is taught in crystal-clear detail from multiple angles. In addition to the mechanics and choreography, Alex teaches you the psychology, drama, and timing that go into the routine. He even covers valuable practice tips and real-world experience so you can learn The Prodigy as easily as possible.

Polish your coins and stretch your fingers, it's time to get to work!
  • No gaffs or gimmicks
  • Perform anytime, anywhere
  • Over 60 sleights and bonus moves
  • Complete visual routine
  • In-depth psychology and timing
Running Time Approximately: 60min

Alex Geiser is one of the top three coin workers I’ve ever seen. His coin work transcends sleight of hand and looks like magic.

His previous DVD, Mirage, was a simple, one coin routine that I would rank as an intermediate routine. This looks just as simple, but the techniques are much more advanced. It uses no gimmicks, just four coins, two hands, and hours of practice. Some sequences require you to hold out multiple coins in the same hand, something Alex makes look effortless, and graceful.

The routine looks really magical. It seems like the coins just melt away. One viewing of the demo video online will convince you how beautiful this looks. It will take hours, months, if not years to get it looking as good as Alex performs it, but it will be well worth it.

The DVD is very nicely produced. The menus are clear, and the music and graphics are not distracting.

This will not be the routine you add to your strolling set this weekend. This is your next investment of your time, and I can’t think of a better investment of time in the magic marketplace today.
