JAY TEMAAT - Magician
Jay was born in
the small town of Oakley, Ks, in 1995 to Stacey and Brad
Temaat. Little did they know what their son's life had
in store for their whole family. When he was eight
years old, a family friend, Skip Foley, taught him rope
tricks. Later that evening, Jay performed the small
tricks at an ice-cream parlor where they ate. That day is
what sparked the fire that is his love for magic. Jay
graduated high school two and a half years ahead of his
class from Lawrence Virtual High School, in pursuit of
performing around the world.
In 2009, Jay attended the World Magic Seminar in Las Vegas,
where he was accepted as 1 of the top 40 teens allowed to
attend. Being in this magical atmosphere inspired Jay to
want to do magic for his career! In 2011, he competed in
the World Magic Seminar Teen Competition and received the
highest scholarship to the McBride Magic and Mystery School.
He stayed in Vegas for the class, working with the top
performing artists from around the world. Jeff McBride
became a mentor and a great friend. This was a very special
opportunity for Jay, and a turning point in his career. At
only 16, Jay already had a blooming a career in magic. He is
currently an emancipated 17 year old, and has taken the
country as well as the magician community by storm. From
some of the highest awards in magic, to representing North
America in the World Championships of Magic. Jay’s long-term
goal is to be a permanent fixture on the strip in Las Vegas. |
