Cardistry is the art of performing visually impressive and fluid tricks and displays using playing cards. It involves precise hand movements, cuts, shuffles, and flourishes that showcase skill, creativity, and coordination.

Practitioners often develop unique sequences and styles, making it both a personal craft and a form of entertainment. It’s appreciated for its complexity, artistry, and the mastery needed to execute seamless, dynamic card displays that captivate audiences.
