How to Learn Fire Magic Tricks

Performing magic tricks in front of an audience can be fun and exciting. Nothing captivates an audience more than working with fire. Learning to do magic tricks with fire does require a great deal of practice, and safety measures should be taken at all times.

• Watch street performers. Street performers often do plenty of magic tricks that involve fire in order to excite the crowd and attract a huge gathering.


• Join a magic club. The Society of American Magicians and the International Brotherhood of Magicians both have chapters throughout many parts of the United States. Find the nearest chapter and join.


• Look for classes. Check at a local magic shop and see if there are any postings from magicians that are teaching magic classes.


• Do research. Check out books from the local library on magic. There are sure to be chapters in the books dedicated to fire magic. There are also websites online that not only give instructional video on magic tricks, but also have props and materials that can be purchased to practice the tricks.


• Become an apprentice. Find a magician in the area and ask to be an assistant. As an assistant, the magician will be able to teach you many tricks with fire. This is the best way to learn and master the craft.


• Practice the tricks. The magic tricks should be practiced several times in private so that the movements can be perfected and be performed confidently in front of a crowd.


• Practice safety at all times. Dealing with fire can be dangerous, so make sure to practice the magic tricks in a safe environment away from flammable materials.
