Testimonials of who has Taken Attila's Stage Hypnosis Courses
Canada
In 2006 September I attended your Stage Hypnosis Course at the Hypnotism Training Institute of Alberta.
This was one of the best experiences I had in my life! I was impressed by the level of your knowledge, expertise, professionalism, honesty, and skills. I am proud of the fact that I was taught by you -- hypnotist, actor, magician, entertainer, and fabulous person! You truly possess the power of magnetism and, I was inspired by your presence. Attila you are also a marvelous teacher, attentive, provoking discussions yet following your principles and high, classy standards.
I highly recommend your course to everyone who is interested in hypnosis, particularly to hypnotherapists who will definitely benefit of your enormous experience and expertise. I would also recommend this course to psychologists, psychiatrists, actors who will be able to greatly expand their understanding of human psychology.

I was one of the Danes at your seminar last month. I just want to tell you that I tried som of the instant inductions. To my own shock they went very well. All until now went to the ground. I even made a full bodykatalepsi on 1. Its my eksperience that with this induction people go straight to Aronsscale 6+ . Its good on the scene and good in the clinick. The best induction for me is where jo take the hand and walk around with people and then turn myself around, hand on the head and shout Sleep.
Soon after a little practis I will be full proff. Stage-hypnotist. Thanks again for sharing your know-how.

I just wanted to write and to thank you for your Stage Hypnosis training.
I had looked half-heartedly at several Stage Hypnosis courses over the years, but all were presented either one-on-one or they were just e-books sold over the internet. The one-on-one courses were advertised as being presented by "the great someone or other" and required that I travel from New Zealand to hand over a substantial sum of money in order to spend a couple of days with someone I had never heard of, who was no doubt an experienced stage performer, but might not be an effective educator. When I found your course, delivered every year as a group training event at a recognized educational institution, I jumped at the chance to attend. Both you and Anny Slegten were very welcoming and willing to accommodate someone like myself who had done his hypnosis training elsewhere. To be honest, I didn't know what to expect from your course, but I got what I needed and much more. You have a simple and clear educational style, and took us step by step through all aspects of setting up and delivering a comedy hypnosis stage show. I was especially grateful for your thorough coverage of "things that go wrong" and how these can be coped with.
Good things about your course:
· Your huge experience on stage and as a hypnotist
· The ability to discuss and practise with other participants
· Step by step guides to staging a show, routines, presentation, clothing, technology etc.
· Debriefs of prior hypno shows, and analysis of what works and what might not work.
· Networking with other budding stage hypnotists who are just starting out.
By the end of the course I felt fully prepared to stage my own hypno show and had formed some lasting friendships. Even though I had never been on stage as an entertainer, I arranged a charity gig for a few weeks after the course, and gave a good 1st show. Since then I have done more charity shows and commercial bookings knowing that your course has given me an excellent start to my show biz career. Thank you again for your great training course and for your support and feedback.

I want to thank you both for the past week of learning. Anny - for recommending the course, even though I had no intention of becoming a stage hypnotist. Attila - for sharing your knowledge and personal experiences together with your sense of humor. As I wrote my intention the first day, "To add to my knowledge and use the information in a way that brings about an understanding of the power of the mind in creating reality.", I find it is being fulfilled. The seminar has triggered a reaction of connected awareness' that will benefit me greatly, not only as a hypnotherapist, but as an individual.
Attila - the manual is very thorough and informative, as you have drawn from many sources to complement your professional and personal experiences. In my view, the Personal Development segment is also a valuable component, both from a therapist and a client perspective. I respect your integrity and dedication to your profession. It is through the perseverance of people like you that positive change is initiated.

From the bottom of my heart…
This is just a note of thank you to Attila and Anny for the stage course. If you are thinking of looking into this area of entertainment I cannot recommend this course high enough. Anny couldn't have gotten a better person to teach this course. Attila is first and foremost just a great guy who is VERY knowledgeable in this field (20 years?? I think) He won't baby sit you but if you are there to learn...believe me that is what you will do. He is very generous with his time and his expertise. Not only will he teach you the in's and out's of the business. He covers such a large trove of information. I can't imagine leaving a course more prepared for my new career than this one. I really feel fortunate to have experienced it.

I would like to offer some thoughts with respect to the Stage Hypnosis Training .
After taking the course, I now realize the value, being a certified Hypnotherapist since 1993, I thought I would have no real need for this training. Much to my surprise I found I learned a great deal and it was very rewarding. I was given some tips and tools that will certainly help me to be more proficient in my Hypnotherapy practice. I want to thank Attila (our instructor) for a most enjoyable seminar. It was filled with new information, humor, sincerity and a wealth of knowledge as a result of his many years of experience as a professional performer. The content of the course was well presented and the "Personal Development" segment is easily integrated into therapy, making it so much more effective.
I recommend this training to any of my colleagues who have not yet had the opportunity to expand their personal and professional potential. In Closing, once again I say thank you to both Anny and Attila for a most enjoyable learning experience.

I would just like to say thank you again for the excellent course you provided for us all last week. You challenged me to think in different ways and to view information in different perspectives. The knowledge I gained from you will be invaluable to me as I begin to work as a hypnotherapist. Although, at this time, I do not expect to be an entertainer having this knowledge will be valuable to me as I meet and work with people whose only real exposure to hypnosis is that of stage hypnosis.
I would highly recommend your course to anyone and look forward to meeting you again.

I just wanted to drop you a note to let you know how much I learned and gained from your course, Hypnosis 501/502. Not only was it extremely beneficial from the entertainment aspect of hypnosis, I cannot count how many times I have used information you presented in the course in my clinical hypnotherapy practice as well. I commend you on the professional presentation of the material, the quality of the material and especially the huge manual of information we received. It has been referenced it many times. Even though you make a large percentage of your income on stage hypnosis, you were extremely generous in sharing your stunts and what I call your "tricks and traps". Every time you teach a course you could be creating your own competition. It takes a dedicated teacher to do that.
I wish you well in your future teaching, I know without a doubt that it will be an asset to every hypnotist, clinical or stage. In fact I think it should be a mandatory class.
Your hypnotist friend,
