Self Levitation is a specific type of levitation, which involves one levitating in thin-air. It is debatable whether Self Levitation can be performed spiritually, however, there is no denying many magicians govern the ability to seemingly rise several feet in the air, without the use of “special powers”. David Blaine was one of the first to bring Self-Levitation into the mainstream with his spectacular alternative to the Balducci levitation. Millions of people around the world witnessed Blaine rise into the air, in the middle of the street and in front of real people. This led to a huge amount of public interest into Self-Levitation and in present day there are thousands of Internet suppliers marketing videos and gimmicks on how to levitate. Many of these Internet suppliers do not set honest prices, and many videos are difficult to learn from and with very little production values. However, there are many revolutionary Self-Levitating effects, which consist of outstanding teaching methods. Ellusionist’s King Levitation is without a doubt the leading impromptu self-levitation effect in the market, being praised by thousands of satisfied customers, as well as professional magicians including award winning Brian Gillis. Other recommended effects include Peter Loughran’s “The Elevator” which performed by a different method but is not "impromptu" and involves a "set up" - but creates a nice looking effect. How to Levitate In it’s rawest form, levitation can supposedly be accomplished through a number of ways. In Buddhism it is believed one can levitate himself through spiritual meditation, which involves a complete focused state of mind. In isolated areas of Asia there are apparently many accounts of this phenomena taking place. Crossing continents to Africa and South America, many members of tribes practice magical acts, such as levitation. Unimaginable feats take place within tribal areas, and records of African inhabitants lifting themselves, along with other physical possessions, such as cows are not rare occurrences. Whether these personal accounts are realistic is questionable, but there is no denying the fact the illusion of levitation can be created through modern magic and presentation. How to Levitate: David Blaine David Blaine astonished millions of jaw dropped TV viewers in his “Street Magic” special where he levitated several feet in the air, with no assistance and in front of real people. David Blaine utilized modern techniques, which can be perfected by the youngest and least talented of magicians. Blaine’s particular levitation was the Balducci. This marvellous levitation can be perfected by anyone, any age. Ellusionist’s “How to do Street Magic” is a perfect place to begin, as it includes three forms of levitation. The Balducci, King Rising and how to “manipulate gravity” to allow items such as a leaf to levitate in mid-air.
