In this episode, we welcome Mr. Martin Hansson.

Although Magic is our common interest and initial spark to our friendship, we talk about his unique experience in performing magic for people suffering from dementia, his thoughts on martial arts and his aikido practice as well as the project to bring a magic course into the university program in Stockholm with Tom Stone, with whom he started a magic theatre project called Mystique in Stockholm, alongside John Henry and Leif Olberius. In the end of the conversation, we discuss and watch two acts developed with the Mystique group.

Martin Hansson’s career started in loud and chaotic venues, which gave him a knack for fast repartee and a crude humor. But the more he has ventured into theatrical environments, the more he have developed subtle work, and he is now able to make performances filled with contrasts – which have even given him prizes in international magic competitions.

In this episode I am talking to Arthur Gerards, who is a LesMills trainer, Triathlete and a Magician.

Arthur and I are a part of the Amsterdam Magic Show team since its inception and have mostly spent time together around that event. For this reason I am happy I to have had an opportunity to finally speak to Arthur a bit more in depth.

In the beginning of the conversation we touch on his role in the War Horse theatre production, the art of performing Magic, importance of practicing and creating moments of connection with the audience. In the second part of the conversation we touch on Arthurs athleticism and how it led him to want to be a Triathlete. Specifically Arthur has now finished two Ironman races, with the last race finishing under the 10h mark. Unfortunately life hit Arthur hard right before the second Iron Man race, as his mother passed away from cancer very suddenly. The conversation ends with Arthurs very positive and uplifting attitude which we hope listeners can take something away from to inspire them in their own lives.
