Hi all

I am running another Pickpocket Seminar in London on 16th September 2010

All the best

Wish I could! Been wanting to attend one of these for a while, but I live in the U.S. and traveling costs a lot. Hope the seminar goes well!

Pffff, wish I could go too.


you don't happen to do this (or know someone who does) in Belgium, do you?

I have 3 places left for the next training in October:

Some quotes from the last one in London:

"What can I say? Just finished my gig and robbed everyone blind!
I wasn’t really planning on trying things out tonight, I would have chosen to practice with a partner a few more times first, but I gave it a go on some staff and it worked so well I ended up doing it at almost every table. Got wallets, watches, phones, hankies, cameras, sometimes even as many as 4 items per person, and only really got caught once. The reactions were big and the satisfaction even bigger. I do a lot of mind reading so people usually follow about saying read his mind etc, whereas tonight theft became the thing they all talked and asked about. I would never have expected such a quick development, but your seminar obviously succeeded in laying the psychological groundwork necessary to improvise so much. It also made the whole gig much more exciting for me by adding this new layer of possibility, and had an excellent effect on older routines.

Thanks again do much and if there is anything I can do to help promote future courses then just let me know!"

"Thank you for your fascinating insights in the world of theatrical pickpocketing!
Your seminar was just what I needed to give me the confidence to go out try these new skills. It was a real pleasure to learn from a person who had so much experience.
If anyone is interested in adding this ability to there act, James will teach you the skills, misdirection, timing and most importantly…. the correct mindset."

So, pickpocket is very easy. I'm wondering why everybody is not a pickpocket ;-)
A seminar and "hop" I'm pickpocket, what else!
I'm sure you seminar is interesting but this kind of comment makes me all the time smile...

A typically thought provoking and well rounded comment from you Parmenion - The course teaches both the soft skills and technical skills of pickpocketing so that the person CAN become a great pickpocket. One day of training doesn't make you a pickpocket but it does give a good start point that is not available elsewhere in the UK.

I don't expect anything less than superiority from you Parmenion, all your posts about me are patronising and negative... interesting as we have never met or even spoken to one another... youre just another fool making decisions without knowledge.

Please feel free to have the last word

James Brown

Thanks James
I have nothing against you James, I just talked about the comment of the guy that's it
We know both pickpocketing is not so easy, I mean a nice theatrical pickpocketing with real interaction with the spectators and what I call comedia dell'arte.
Again, I've really nothing against you ;-)

Then please accept my humble apology for misrepresenting you the way I did.

If the moderators want to delete my post as 'out of place' then please do

Again, my apologies

Don't worry ;-)

I would be extremely interested in taking one of these if it is in the states! I have been trying to learn the watch steal for a while now, and could really use some direction on this. Please consider doing one in the US, I am sure it would sell out like crazy!

I'd be interested in attending one in the US this year if one is scheduled

Another request for the USA!

I doubt you will get an answer from a 2/3 year old thread.

Would love a mid week one in the UK!
