Annapolis Street Hypnosis Outing

Brian, Cliff, Ian and I were in Annapolis Sunday, doing street hypnosis. Brian and Ian did most of the inductions, (18 and 11 inductions respectively), with Cliff and me acting as camera crew. Still Cliff and I did some inductions just to keep up appearances. It was a good outing and we'll probably go out again in a couple of weeks to Alexandria or Fells Point. We used Brians cool new signs and they seemed to attract the crowd very well.

I just posted the latest edition of the Extreme Street Hypnosis Newsletter and included a new video which shows why the hand drop induction should always be done with the subject seated.

I'm just getting ready for my Instant and Rapid Induction class 18-19 October in Ottawa. Kendra McCaskill has been organizing it and I think it's going to be a blast!

We got an email from Sean this week. He's going to college in Vermont at Norwich University. Norwich is a military academy and Sean was asked to do a hypnosis show in a couple of weeks that may have up to 350 people in the audience. Way to go Sean!

Sleep! (less) in Seattle

Just arrived home after teaching instant and rapid inductions in Seattle, Washington. This was especially fun for me because I got to teach with Keith Livingston of hypnosis101.com. Keith is an outstanding NLP and hypnosis instructor and a really great guy. The weekend started out a little shaky when Keith sprained his ankle playing basketball the night before the class began. Keith is a true professional and "played hurt"! The students were lots of fun and it didn't take long before they were knocking one another down with hand drop and arm pull inductions. Sunday we went on a field trip to a local park and hypnotized some strangers who happend to be out picnicking in the beautiful weather. I'll be posting some video of the weekend as soon as the editing is done.

My next class will be in Ottawa, October 18-19. Kenda McCaskill of Hypnotic Solutions in Stittsville, Ontario is organizing the class. She can be reached at 613-852-7658

Now I'm planning an instant and rapid induction class in Orlando, Florida 21-22 March 2009. I am looking for advice on where to hold the class. My choices are one hotel that is about a mile from the airport, but 22 miles from Disney World, and another hotel very close to Disney World. If you have an opinion as to which location would be better for students, I'd love to hear from you.
