Wonder Camp
Where methods disappear and real moments begin.
By Radek Hoffman & Jose Ahonen
10-12.8.2026, Żelków kolonia ul Leśna 9, Poland
Most magicians never learn this.
You can spend years collecting effects. Watching tutorials. Buying methods. And still miss the one thing that actually creates wonder.
How you think. How you communicate.
How you build a moment.
Deep dive to the craft
• 3 days of focused, hands-on work
• Direct feedback on your material
• Practical tools you can actually use
• A small group of people who take this seriously
• Ideas that stay with you long after the camp
The Wonder Camp Exclusive Sessions
At Wonder Camp, alongside the core coaching and curriculum, we will screen exclusive interviews with the masters of our craft. These sessions are produced specifically for the camp and will be watched together during the event. After the camp, the videos will remain available for participants to revisit, but they will not be released anywhere else.

He has published books and effects for the magic community, earning recognition for material that is direct, deceptive, and built for performance—not just theory.

Location
Hidden in the countryside of Żelków Kolonia, this is not a hotel. It’s a place where you slow down.
Wooden cabins. Warm lights. Silence around you.
During the day, we work. In the evenings, we sit outside, talk, watch old magic videos and let ideas breathe.
There’s space to think. Space to try things.
Space to be away from everything else.
Simple. Comfortable.Focused.
Exactly what this kind of work needs.
