Around your table, between one glass and the next. Mentalism and magic inches away, in your guests’ own hands, with their belongings, their names and their thoughts.
An evening no one will be able to explain.
For special occasions: private mentalism and illusion experiences, exclusive, intimate and luxurious, for just a few guests.
Some celebrations are photographed, and others are retold for years.
For the second kind, I create mentalism and illusion experiences made only for you and the people who matter most. Nothing is repeated. Nothing is ever performed the same way twice.
The experience
Two ways to live it
Always for a few guests, always behind closed doors. You choose the setting.
Your guests gather in the living room, on a terrace or in a private salon for an evening of original mentalism: mind reading, predictions and a finale no one will be able to explain the next day.
In the salon
Your guests, part of the show
In a salon evening no one is just a spectator. Your guests step up, choose, think… and the impossible happens to them, in front of everyone.
Occasions
For the moments that never happen twice
- I
The proposal
The most important question of your life, revealed in a way neither of you will ever forget. Designed in secret, with you.
- II
The anniversary
Your dates, your memories, your story, turned into impossible moments in front of the people who have shared the journey.
- III
Dinner at home
Your table, your guests, your wine. An after-dinner conversation that begins like any other and ends as family history.
- IV
The villa, the yacht, the destination
Celebrations far from everything, in English or Spanish, for guests arriving from anywhere in the world.
The signature
A sealed envelope
Days before the celebration, you receive a sealed envelope. You keep it, you forget it, you bring it with you.
It is opened at the end of the night, in front of everyone. What it holds is impossible to explain.
A few guests
Closeness is part of the experience.
Written to measure
Every moment is born from your story.
Absolute discretion
Your home and your guests remain private.
About me
Javier Natera
I am a Mexican mentalist and illusionist. I have taken my work to stages, festivals and television in Mexico and many other countries, and to private celebrations with guests from all over the world.
My work is not about showing off tricks, but about creating a moment your guests feel is their own: one they cannot explain and will never want to forget.
Where
Wherever you are
At your home in Guadalajara, Monterrey or Mexico City, in an oceanfront villa in Los Cabos, Punta Mita or the Riviera Maya, on the deck of a yacht or on the other side of the world.

Questions
What people usually ask
How long is the experience?
Between 50 and 60 minutes. If your celebration calls for a shorter format, I adapt it to the rhythm of the evening.
How many guests is it for?
The salon experience, up to 50 guests. The table experience works best with up to 30, depending on the venue: we plan the layout of tables and chairs together so everyone sees up close, and once you book I send you reference photos.
What is the difference between the table and the salon experience?
At the table, everything happens around one table, with your guests seated inches away. In the salon, standing, an ephemeral stage appears: your guests take part from where they are or join me up front. Both are equally astonishing; I recommend the salon for groups of 12 or more.
Is it magic or mentalism?
Both. I move between mentalism and illusion to find the right balance, with one goal: that your guests experience the impossible and take home a unique moment.
Can children attend?
Yes. The experience is designed for adults, but I always take care with language and the elements I use, so everyone can enjoy it.
What do you need to know to write it to measure?
What you are celebrating and what the space is like. With that, I plan how to set everything up so the experience is the best it can be for you and your guests. It does not take much preparation time.
How does a marriage proposal work?
I work in secret with the person giving the ring. Together we design a unique moment so that you are the one who presents it, not me: I am only the bridge.
When is the sealed envelope delivered?
We agree on it with the person booking the experience. It can be sent days before or, if logistics require, handed over at the start of the evening. Either way, it is opened at the end, in front of everyone.
How far in advance should I book?
As early as possible. I travel constantly, develop my own projects and advise other artists, so dates are held in order of confirmation.
Do you travel to other destinations?
Yes, anywhere in Mexico and the world. Depending on the destination, travel expenses are quoted separately and, depending on the experience, I travel alone or with an assistant.
What is needed at the venue?
Every venue is different and we review it together. The minimum is a table and chairs for your guests.
Can it be in English?
Yes: in English, in Spanish or bilingual, depending on your guests.
How much does it cost?
Each experience is quoted to measure, based on the venue, the number of guests and the format. Tell me about your evening and I will send you a proposal.
How do I reserve a date?
With a contract and a 50% deposit. The balance is paid before the experience.
Who have you performed for?
Discretion is part of my work, so I do not share names. I have performed for political figures, including former presidents, athletes, business leaders and actors, in Mexico and abroad.
Private request
Tell me about your evening
I accept a limited number of private celebrations each year. I read and answer every request personally.

I will read it personally and write to you very soon.
