Chapter 2: Starting off

An easy beginner move to learn is the one handed fan. This is a impressive move that is not to difficult to master. Use newer cards because they fan better and when first learning dont use the entire deck find an amount that feels comfortable.

 The Charlier Cut is the most common one handed cut. It is used is many flourishes and a great way to start practicing one handed cuts. Once again practice makes perfect and this is difficult for the first time. Don't give up if you have small hands you can do it because i have small hands too. This will most likely take you a while to master.
