Magic School Comes to Nassau County. Magical Promotions and Gary Dreifus Bring Magic to Five-Star.
Gary Dreifus' popular "Magic Class for Beginners" is being offered for the first time in Nassau County at the Five-Star Sports & Entertainment Academy in East Rockaway.
East Rockaway, NY, February 24, 2011 --(PR.com)-- They sit around the desk watching a regular dinner roll. One of the students drapes a cloth napkin over the roll. After a moment’s concentration, the roll begins to move. Slowly it floats up into the air, with no visible means of support.
A scene from the next sci-fi movie?
No.
It is a real scene from Gary Dreifus’ Magic Class for Beginners.
Gary Dreifus has been performing magic, mentalism and hypnosis for over 35 years. He has been teaching Magic classes at Kingsborough Community College in Brooklyn for over 10 years. An accomplished entertainer, lecturer, motivational speaker, his clients have included the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, NYC Department of Education, AT&T, Medgar Evers College, CUNY, Verizon, Police Square Club, Freemasons, the New York Marfan Society, Knights of Pythias, the Wounded Warriors program and other varied corporations and non-profit organizations throughout the tri-state area.
Dr. Dreifus (Gary is one of the select few individuals to receive the coveted degree of Doctor of Magic) is founder and CEO of Magical Promotions, a company that places world-class magicians in specific venues throughout the country. He has several instructional DVD’s taped and distributed internationally for professional magicians and has been a consultant for some of the top illusionists and magic companies in the world.
He is also the producer of “Magic at Coney!!!”, a magical variety show highlighting world-class, award winning magicians. It is a full length program featuring illusionists, mentalists and close-up magicians from around the world with performers that “run the gamut from mild to wild.”
Gary has most recently brought his popular magic classes to after school, enrichment, and senior programs throughout the tri-state area.
Why a course in magic?
“Magic teaches so much more than just tricks”, Gary is quick to state.
He continues, “It teaches public speaking, eye-hand coordination, socialization skills, sequencing, cognitive skills, fine and gross motor skills. Magic improves one’s attention and memory. It gives the student a true sense of accomplishment with abilities that stay with them for the rest of their lives. It provides an individual with the proficiency to establish rapport, utilize linguistics and make a presentation in a clear and concise manner”.
Gary is now offering magic lessons for the first time in Nassau County, at Five-Star Sports & Entertainment Academy in East Rockaway. This seems to be the perfect marriage, since Five-Star is already the one-stop destination for children, adults, and the entire family. Five-Star is the place for athletes to train with some of the nation’s top instruction and talent. Offering classes and open facility sessions encompassing various sports and disciplines, the staff at Five-Star welcomes you to let them show you why they have earned the title of being the Ultimate Sports & Entertainment Academy.
In addition to the wide array of classes, parents can enjoy working out in one of the many adult fitness options, or a massage while the kids take a class. Their popular birthday parties offer fun in the gym and special themes. At Five-Star, families enjoy a safe and encouraging environment with programs that run year round. Five-Star has been home to both fun and educational experiences for over 12 years.
