A TADY JE RECENZE AKCE:

Před několika lety se Jonathan Royle, zlý chlapec jevištní hypnózy, rozhodl vstoupit do tréninkové hry a nyní propaguje několik různých akcí ročně. Minulý víkend jsem se zúčastnil jeho semináře "Confessions of a Hypnotist" v Birminghamu. Než jsem to však mohl udělat, musel jsem se podívat na patnáct (ano...patnáct!) DVD, která předem rozesílá účastníkům, a která obsahují dříve natočenou verzi tohoto semináře jako sadu deseti DVD, třídisků soubor s názvem "Tajemství profesionální jevištní hypnózy", na kterém demonstruje ne méně než osmnáct různých technik rychlého navození (mimo jiné) a svůj dvoudiskový kurz "Tajemství profesionální hypnoterapie".

Je také dobré, že jsem byl dost pilný, abych se na tato DVD podíval předem, protože Royle se rozhodl, že protože každý dostává celý seminář na disku, mohl by jim také dát úplně jiný, což znamená, že ačkoli došlo k určitému křížení, delegáti efektivně získal dva semináře za cenu jednoho. Dobrá hodnota podle měřítek většiny lidí...zvláště uvážíme-li, že před sobotním obědem se mu podařilo dekonstruovat velkou část repertoáru Derrena Browna...ne že by se tam zastavil...jen pro pořádek, hodil také ukázku toho, jak dávat studená čtení.

Sobotní odpoledne se přesunulo k prodeji sebe sama jako hypnotizéra/'psychického'/myšlenkového mága, pokrývalo rozhovory v rádiu a televizi, internet a duševní veletrhy, zahrnovalo promítání jeho nyní nechvalně známého vystoupení na Channel Four "The Darker Side of Stage Hypnosis" . To je místo, kde věci začaly být opravdu kontroverzní, nejen kvůli jeho minulosti, ale také kvůli jeho předpokladu, že „neexistuje žádná taková věc jako hypnóza“, která je ústředním bodem tohoto semináře i DVD.

Podle Roylea je veškerá hypnóza v nejhorším případě o něco více než trik založený na směsi sociální poddajnosti a „karaoke efektu“ a v nejlepším případě na vlastní hypnóze... pokud věříte v autohypnózu. Bez ohledu na to, zda s ním úplně nesouhlasíte nebo ne, je snadné vidět, jak si mohl vytvořit tento názor. Poté, co debutoval na jevišti v pouhých třech a půl letech, se svolením svého otce, veterána baviče Lesa, vyrostl kolem cirkusových umělců a kouzelníků a od dětství předváděl kouzla, takže na něj má vliv vše, včetně jevištní hypnózy. ...nebo abych použil jeho odborný termín, "con"...alespoň to říká...někteří delegáti ho brali jako nominální hodnotu, zatímco jiní se pokoušeli číst mezi řádky.

První den zakončil k velkému smíchu a otevřel flipchart odhalující osmnáct (ano...osmnáct!) certifikátů, které si účastníci odnesli z tohoto školení...s velkým popiskem „toto je bull**** “, poté je použil jako metaforu pro vytvoření vlastního mezeru na trhu.

Nedělní ráno bylo ještě kontroverznější, díky 'CMT', jeho vlastní jedinečné značce terapie, která s dobrým efektem zahrnuje close-up magii (zamýšlená slovní hříčka). Teď kouří...doslova...zatímco předvádí, jak přestat lidi kouřit...a mluví o „kognitivní disonanci“... Někteří z terapeutů v místnosti (která obsahovala směs rádoby a pracujících hypnotizérů, kouzelníků hypnoterapeuti, psychoterapeuti, praktici NLP a dokonce i psychiatr) nebyli pobaveni, protože ho považovali za naprosto nezodpovědného a naprosto neetického, ale na konci dne většina změnila názor a měla pocit, že ať už může nebo nemusí být věřte, že se mu podařilo naučit je nějaké mocné lekce.

Zatloukl pointu domů způsobem Roberta Antona Wilsonesqe (ačkoli pochybuji, že by se mu to srovnání líbilo), řekl publiku: „Všechno, co jsem tento víkend řekl, jsou kecy...pokud chcete, aby to bylo... a vše, co jsem o víkendu řekl, je pravda...chcete-li, aby to bylo,“ než se vrátil k jevištní hypnóze, kterou obšírně předváděl s pomocí dobrovolníků z publika. Den poté zakončila otázka a odpověď, během níž se mimo jiné zabýval profesním pojištěním a členstvím v akciích.

Není překvapením, že jako zkušený umělec je Royle poutavým a zábavným moderátorem. Je pravda, že není pro slabochy...nebo pro ty, kteří se bojí, že budou zpochybněny jejich systémy víry, ale jeho znalosti magie, mentalismu a hypnózy jsou rozsáhlé a spolu s DVD, na kterých učí způsoby, jak obejít Stage Hypnotism z roku 1952 Act, 'hypnotricks', testy sugestibility a jeho psychologie jevištní hypnózy (a doprovodný CD Rom, který obsahuje jeho různé e-knihy, poznámky ze seminářů a další), toto školení tvoří impozantní balíček, který bude velmi zajímat mnoho jevištních hypnotizérů. , kouzelníci, mentalisté a terapeuti..

And if that's not enough Royle Reveals numerous other Secrets, Ploys, Methods and Techniques which he has never revealed in any of his other training's before making this ten disc set exceptional value for money at this limited time only Special Offer Price!

AND HERE IS A REVIEW OF THE EVENT:

A couple of years ago, Jonathan Royle, the bad boy of stage hypnosis, decided to get into the training game and he now promotes several different events a year. Last weekend I attended his "Confessions of a Hypnotist" seminar in Birmingham. However, before I could do so, I was obliged to watch the fifteen (yes...fifteen!) DVDs that he sends out to participants beforehand, which include a previously filmed version of this seminar as a ten DVD set, a three disc set entitled "Secrets of Professional Stage Hypnosis" upon which he demonstrates no less than eighteen different rapid induction techniques (amongst other things) and his two disc "Secrets of Professional Hypnotherapy" course.

It's as well that I was diligent enough to watch these DVDs in advance, as Royle had decided that since everyone was getting the entire seminar on disc, he might as well give them a completely different one, meaning that although there was some crossover, delegates effectively got two seminars for the price of one. Good value by most people's standards...particularly considering that before lunch on Saturday he succeeded in deconstructing much of Derren Brown's repertoire...not that he stopped there...just for good measure, he also threw in a demonstration of how to give cold readings.

Saturday afternoon moved on to selling oneself as a hypnotist/'psychic'/mind magician, covering radio and television interviews, the internet and psychic fairs, it included a screening of his now infamous appearance on Channel Four's "the Darker Side of Stage Hypnosis". This is where things started to get really controversial, not just because of his past, but also because of his premise that 'there's no such thing as hypnosis', which is central to both this seminar and the DVDs.

According to Royle, all hypnosis is at worst little more than a trick based upon a mixture of social compliancy and "the karaoke effect" and at best, self hypnosis...if you believe in self hypnosis. Regardless of whether you disagree completely with him or not, it's easy to see how he may have formed this opinion. Having made his stage debut at the tender age of three and a half, courtesy of his veteran entertainer father Les, he grew up around circus performers and magicians, and has performed magic since his childhood, so to him everything including stage hypnosis is an effect...or to use his technical term, a "con"...at least that's what he says...some delegates took him at face value while others attempted to read between the lines.

Rounding off the first day, to a big laugh, he opened a flipchart revealing the eighteen (yes...eighteen!) certificates that participants take away from this training...with a huge caption stating "this is bull****", then proceeded to use them as a metaphor for creating one's own niche market.

Sunday morning was even more controversial, courtesy of 'CMT', his own unique brand of therapy, which incorporates close up magic to good effect (pun intended). Now he's smoking...literally...whilst demonstrating how to stop people smoking...and talking about 'cognitive dissonance'... Some of the therapists in the room (which contained a mixture of wannabe and working stage hypnotists, magicians, hypnotherapists, psychotherapists, NLP practitioners and even a psychiatrist) were not amused, considering him to be wildly irresponsible and totally unethical, but by the end of the day, most had changed their minds, feeling that whatever he may or may not be or believe, he had succeeded in teaching them some powerful lessons.

Hammering the point home, in a Robert Anton Wilsonesqe manner (though I doubt that he'll like the comparison), he tells his audience "everything I've said this weekend is bullshit...if you want it to be...and everything I've said this weekend is the truth...if you want it to be," before returning to stage hypnosis, which he demonstrated at length, with the help of volunteers from the audience. The day then ended with a question and answer session during which he dealt with, amongst other things, professional insurance and Equity membership.

Unsurprisingly, as an experienced performer, Royle makes an engaging and amusing presenter. Admittedly he's not for the fainthearted...or for those who are afraid of having their belief systems challenged, but his knowledge of magic, mentalism and hypnosis is extensive and together with the DVDs, in which he teaches ways of circumventing the 1952 Stage Hypnotism Act, 'hypnotricks', suggestibility tests and his psychology of stage hypnosis (and the accompanying CD Rom which contains his various e-books, seminar notes and more), this training makes a formidable package that will be of great interest to many stage hypnotists, magicians, mentalists and therapists..
