Manchurian Techniques - Hypnotism for Magicians and Mentalists

I have a new course kicking off in January.

'The Manchurian Approach - Hypnotism for Magicians'.

A mixture of intensive practical training in the classroom and live practice in the street and bars
with the public. A unique course aimed solely at performance hypnosis and open only to magicians, mentalists and street hypnotists. You will gain the confidence, patter and attitude required to excel.


Day 1: In intensive practical sessions everyone will learn a solid but flexible approach to hypnotizing including the set piece, inductions, suggestion and routines with hypnotic phenomena such as catalepsy, corpsing and amnesia.

Day 2 will cover in depth more specialized knowledge including Hypno Forces and Hypno Peeks, hallucinations, controlling the Post Hypnotic Act, managing reaction, Permanosis and covert pre-show applications. This will be put into the context of typical magic settings including impromptu, street, walk around, stage and TV.


It takes place in Derby on the 17th and 18th January 2009. Good value accommodation is available on site. The introductory price is 250 pounds.

The trainers are Anthony Jacquin and Kev Sheldrake of Head Hacking Ltd.

NB: this is not a course on traditional stage hypnosis.
