The ability to control the mind of another human is nothing short of a true super power.

You are about to learn Spidey's full tailored & time-tested hypnotism show that keeps him booked a full 365 days out of every year all over the western hemisphere. You will also learn everything you need to know to build your very own show from scratch.

You will learn:

- How to script your show
- How to write original skits and how to present them
- Spidey's full induction, perfected over 15 years and tips on how to write your own
- How to leverage suggestion & convincers to optimize success

You will also get an hour of live footage from Spidey's touring show to see how he applies the content of this DVD.

Even if you have zero experience with hypnotism, Spidey will walk you, step by step, through the fundamentals all the way through the master techniques which will take your performance from good to unforgettable.

On the count of 3, get ready to learn the greatest skill you'll ever know. 1...2...3...

I've never done any hypnosis, but I've been interested in it for awhile. I'm wondering how beginner friendly this is. Obviously this is a skill that will take time to develop, but is this geared towards those who already know some hypnosis, or is it geared towards anyone who wants to know?

I was wondering the same thing. The ad says:

Wonder how true that is...

Hey Guys!

Spidey here! Happy to answer all questions.

First let me begin by addressing the price: my goal here was not to make a ton of money. I make my living by touring and performing this stuff. My goal was to make a comprehensive, easy to follow project to help all those interested in understanding this stage hypnosis thing! So we kept the price low enough to not bust your bank but high enough to discourage the amateurs. Smile

Second, the material: The statement is 10000% true, if you know NOTHING about hypnosis, you can watch this DVD and you will learn everything you need to know, the content is there. Not only do I go through everything step by step but I say why it works and how to make it work for YOU, And we include an hour of live footage of you seeing what it's suppose to look like on stage.

NOW! Does this mean you can watch the DVD once and head out and book shows. NO. You might have to watch it more than once, take some notes, go out and try it a few times come back and watch it again with a more experienced eye and notice a few things you did not notice the first time. But, I promise, if you put the time into this, the DVD does contain absolutely everything you need to know in order to do this right. I don't hold back at all Smile

Hope this helps!
Good luck guys!

Hey Spidey,
it looks really good. What kind of hypnosis do you teach on the DVD? Only stage hypnosis?
Because I always did some street hypnosis, but I heard that people on the stage are way better to hypnotize than others, because they come with an other attitude on the stage to get hypnotized and in this moment their brain works different than anyone else on the street. Do you thing there is any difference between those subjects or the way how you have to use an induction?
Looking forward to see your work Smile

Marketing exaggerations are okay, but I have to wonder how can someone Spidey's age have toured and performed this for 15 years. Okay, I am an old guy, BUT I have been using hypnotherapy over 40 years, since Univ of TX grad school, and performing stage hypnosis full time since 1992 (mostly corporate and fairs, but lots of casinos including more than once in Las Vegas). There are getting to be a lot of DVD courses for stage hypnosis. You probably can learn from is DVD's just as you can learn magic from DVD's, or even You Tube. But, will that make you a magician? the price is right, buy it and THINK about how you perform it. Most guys let their egos get in the way of being really good. Be sure you understand what an abreaction is, how to identify one,how to head it off, and what to do it it does occur. Anyway, I am not wanting to be negative towards any of these learn on DVD programs, obviously they do not compare to learning with a hypnotist (OJT is always best)nor does a 3 day class in Vegas, but it is cheaper. good luck.

Hey man, yes, the DVD focuses on Stage hypnosis, everything from what you say when you hit the stage, to testing the subjects, to induction techniques, to pacing a show. Smile

Hey there,

so I have NOT been touring for 15 years, in the trailer I say I have built this material over 15 years which is true because I started performing hypnosis as a teenager. I have been touring with about 100-150 show a year for the last 4-5 years.

That being said, I completely agree, there are many sources of instruction on hypnosis, this is just my complete course that I have put together over the years, and I believe you would be pleased with the amount of information I have put in there.

Thanks for taking the time to write Smile

Hey Spidey! I think this looks great and the price is definitely right! Just curious how you think looks and age affect your performance. I love hypnosis, but I've stayed away from it in the past, because I'm only 25 and I look like I'm about 18, so I've always had the fear that college shows would be a nightmare to command, since I look their age or younger. Any thoughts?

Has anyone had the chance to watch it that would be willing to review it? I have it sitting in my cart and I'm just waiting for a reason to push the "Checkout" button Smile

That isn't necessarily true. Age can play a factor. What is important is that you are relevant to the audience you are playing to. An 18 year old is not going to go into an audience full of CEO's and have a successful Hypnosis show in most cases. You need to "fit in" in some way for them. The process of Hypnosis begins long before you step on stage.

But the advice above is sound. Just start doing it wherever you can. High schools. Colleges if you can get them. Functions. Get your feet wet. You are young so now is the perfect time to start building your confidence, skills and show. Then find where you are relevant, and go from there.

And educate yourself as much as you can about Hypnosis. Do not think thou are going to by a DVD set, and then all of a sudden become a Hypnotist. Its easy to talk the talk. Walking the walk takes work. It's is important to know about what you are professing to do. Ormond McGill. Milton Erickson. If those names are not familiar to you, you have a lot of studying to do.

The more you know, the more confidence you will have. And in the Hypnosis game, confidence is of paramount importance.

I've now watched this and it delivers all I expected from it.

Everything is well explained and seeing it done on stage is a great way to reinforce the learning.

If you ever wanted to learn how to do this you can't go wrong with this it could easily have been sold for 5 times the price or more and still been good value.

VERY VERY well said, honestly, that answer is perfect! I touch an all these points in the DVD, I walk about the entire game that is played before you even get on stage! I completely agree with all of the above. Especially the Ormond McGill part. My DVD is very complete in terms of information but the McGill book is THE best source on stage hypnosis due to how complete it is. Hypnosis isn't a gimmick, it's a discipline. One that pays off!

As for the age thing specifically; When I was 18, I did a lot of corporate shows and they all went well, but not AS well as my college shows. Practice practice practice as much as you can at first but you are correct in assuming that it will be harder to work with an older crowd if you look like a teenager, credibility gets lost a little.

Hope this helps!

Thanks so much for all of the replies everyone! I'm familiar with Ormond McGill, but have not heard of Milton Erickson, so thanks for giving me some more study material! As of right now, hypnosis is just a thing friends get a kick out of seeing me do at parties, but you can only hypnotize the same people so many times before it starts to get boring! I'm definitely picking a couple of these up on my next Murphy's order! Smile
