Born in 1960 to a mother who was the head nurse in the IDF and a father who was a pilot and businessman. In his youth, he performed as a magician, and changed his name to Yurini. He received the names Aaron and Michael when he converted years later. He spent his childhood between England, France, Switzerland and Israel following his father's business. Moving from simple tricks to the world of mysticism and telepathy, towards the end of his 20s Yurini began to focus more on art and less on magic.
