We are pleased to be able to offer a brand-new series of workshops with magician MO Shaoxian. Over the course of four sessions, you will learn tricks, while also develop your confidence. Practicing magic can also improve your concentration and reduce stress. All materials will be provided.

Mr MO Shaoxian is a renowned magician and educator who grew up in a magician family in Shanghai and is the third generation of magicians in his family. He performed in China for over 50 years and now teaches magic workshops in schools and universities in Shanghai. His style of magic tricks is listed as intangible cultural assets in China.

Workshops take place between 1:30-3:00PM on Wednesdays and cost £5 each. You can book individual workshops or book a bundle of workshops (four for the price of three!).

Book via our e-store. Places are limited! https://estore.manchester.ac.uk/product-catalogue/the-confucius-institute/wellbeing-magic-tricks-workshops/wellbeing-magic-tricks-workshops
