WHAT DOES FLOURISHER MEAN IN ENGLISH?

flourisher

Card flourish

Card flourishes are visual displays of skill performed with playing cards, designed to show the skill or manual dexterity of a 'flourisher'. Card flourishes are primarily intended to be visually impressive and to appear difficult to do. Card flourishes for magicians can be divided into many genres: one-handed cuts, spreads, two-handed cuts, fanning, aerials, and springs. Card flourishes are performed both as part of magic performances and on their own. Though there are many flourishing moves, the most common method of learning the art is through DVDs, books, free tutorials on the internet, private one-on-one sessions as well as privately produced instructional videos. As a result, there is significantly more informational material available on the market today for those interested. Card flourishing is a hobby mostly practiced by young people, and has almost become separated from the magic community, however this movement has been hindered somewhat by magicians incorporating flourishes into magic tricks.
