"I consider your video tapes to be wonderful teaching tools. I have just about every tape in your series and look forward to each new one you produce. Your rapid induction techniques are terrific! You are a fantastic teacher. I use these tapes extensively to sharpen my hypnosis skills."
Brian Weiss, M.D., Author "Many Lives, Many Masters", Miami FL
 

Having only been in the field since 2005, I already realize how valuable it is that I am trained by you. I have said it before, and I'll keep saying it again ­your training is unbelievable. I am saddened that I didn't fmd your advanced training first and am quite frankly amazed that this is not the premier training for all hypnosis organizations. If the hypnotists that I know would only invest in themselves and learn directly from you, they'd see the amazing results that I am seeing in my office. It's a shame that this is not the model for all hypnosis organizations. If it was, the entire world would already know about this beautiful field and the incredible healing that occurs through advanced hypnosis skills. Thank you to you and your soul for following through with, what I truly believe to be, your purpose and for passing the power. I will always cherish what you have taught me and honor the field of hypnosis, through your work.

Hi, Stella,

I remember what it was like trying to fiqure out who's course to order.I had ordered videos from Marshall Sylver, and some guy named Mike Stower,
also, a "complete course" from someone named Mark Lewis.....ALL Garbage !!I came across a guy named Geoffrey Ronning on the internet, he has
www.stagehypnosiscenter.com. I visited with him over the telephone, really liked him,....He is the one who suggested to me, Jerry Kein, of The Omni Hypnosis Center, for training.

I am REALLY Grateful, I had already spent alot of money with those otherpeople on their courses,...in hindsight, I should have known, "You could'ntlearn what you need to know, from one or two tapes". I did'nt realize thecomplexity, and the background needed to handle unexpected situations thatmight come along. I look back now,...and actually shudder, at the thought of having someone in trance, and suddenly have them become hysterical !!! (It's called an Abreaction, you'll learn about it in Jerry's Course) I would have not known what to do, and probably "Freaked Out" myself !! Jerry is a very good instructor, probably the best I've ever seen. Very thorough on all the tapes, there's ALOT of them, and it takes a while to go through them all, but they're very interesting.

I pay more attention to other Hypnotists I hear of now, their techniques, etc. Many of them seem to be using "Old School Techniques". I'm really glad Geoffrey Ronning pointed me in the right direction, I would'nt have know any better.

If I had anything to do over ?? I would have probably ordered the bigger course, It would have saved me alittle money. I have eventually ordered all the additional tapes anyway, I suspect you'll probably be like me, ..this is very interesting stuff, and you'll want to learn more and more. I enjoy having the video class because I can rewind over and over something I particularly like. Each time through, I come across something new it seems.

I've never had the opportunity of meeting Jerry personally, I'd like to, I feel like I know him through his tapes, I hope you'll look back at me, ...the same way I look at Geoffrey Ronning,... He is responsible for heading me in the right direction.

I'm very thankful I did'nt have to waste ALOT MORE money and time learning what I needed to know. I'm REALLY GRATEFUL, I did'nt get someone (a client) into trouble because of lack of good training. I hope this helps with your decision, Please feel free to contact me anytime, it's a pleasure to be able to recommend Jerry Kein, and it's a pleasure to visit with you,

Sincerely,
Rick Ward

 Jerry,

  I just wanted to take a moment, and share a Nice experience I had last
night, Compliments of YOU and your Reputation.  I attended my First local NGH Meeting last night. It was hosted by Drake and Leslie Eastburn, here in Denver, Colo.   It was a Great Meeting, Good Turnout, made alot of new friends, etc.

What was especially interesting, and REALLY made me Feel Good,...When the newcomers (me and some others)  were asked to introduce ourselves, and briefly give our experience and training.  When I mentioned  my training and background was from Jerry Kein,  GOOD GRIEF,  ...They made ME feel like a Celebrity or something !!!   They went On-and-0n about You, ... How YOU provided the Best Training in the Business,  You were the Best Hypnotist they ever met,  How they would  LOVE to get you out here to speak or conduct a Training Session someday..

 It went on-and-on,  It SURE made me Appreciate even more, what you have provided me, ..and it just felt good to know I had made the best decision when I ordered your course, and picked You, to train under.  You Sure have some Good Friends here in Denver,  I hope someday you can come out this way...I'd  Like to Shake Your Hand Personally... 
Thanks Again,

Date: Mon, 29 Oct 2001 21:57:13 -0500

Mr. Kein:
Okay Jerry, here's some more kudos regarding the superb quality of your videos. I've attended classes with a number of the country's finest hypnotists. Matter-of-fact, I first heard of you from Mark 'aka Major Mark ' Cunningham, a successful Ohio hypnotist in his own right who praises you and your passion forteaching,your incredible skills and tireless dedication to advancing our vocation relentlessly. 

And it isn't only Mr. Cunningham, I've heard recent praise of you echo from the speaking platforms of many the world's finest practitioners in both the alternative health arena and the mainstream medical community in the NYC, NJ and CT area. 

In the past, I have viewed several of your videos with friends and had tohave a copy of my own. I ordered the Dave Elman Induction. Yiiikes, just when I thought I've completely exhausted the subject and heard everything about this simple but potent induction, I realized from your video how little I knew and how better equipped I could (and should) be. 

There are so many 'subtleties' in hypnosis that make an induction seem simple, but to accomplish that simple effect which achieves an effective outcome and productive session is sometimes deceiving and sometimes is the result of mastery in action. Mr. Kein, that's exactly what I think when I view your videos. The simplicity you achieve is deceptive, but the fun way you explore every variance, every nuance every detail on this tape, well, anyone viewing your video is like the well equipped military soldier with an arsenal for success at his disposal who can handle a variety of situations as opposed to the rag-tag soldier carrying an antiquated muzzle-loader who just has that one shot to achieve his objective. 

You can bet I'll be ordering as well as recommending more of your tapes in the future. Keep up the EXCELLENT work and thanks for sharing your outstanding knowledge with your fellow hypnotists in the field.

Regards,
John Petrocelli,  Greenwich Village / NYC

 

Hi, my name is Matthew Hawn, and I have about finished an 150 hour course on Hypnotherapy in Washington State. After viewing a couple of videos by Mr. Kein, I realize how average my schooling has been. Since my discovery of your tapes, I feel that I am much better prepared to start my future career. I will soon order more videos, and make the decision to personally attend some of the classes offered by the Omni Hypnosis Center. Thanks for being there for me.

Dear Jerry, >In January of this year I purchased your, "Basic through Advance Hypnosis", course on video tape. I just wanted to tell you that I feel it is the best training out there. I have been through the program twice and am starting the third time now. No, I'm not "slow", but every time I watch it I learn something I missed the previous time. Thank you again and keep up the good work. Sincerely, 
Howard T. Curry, D.C. 
P.S. Please feel free to use these comments in your promotional literature

"If I had to return to hypnotherapy without your recent re-training of both the old and fantastic new techniques, Jerry, I would have failed. You tell us what you're going to tell us, then you tell us, then you tell us what you told us and you show us "step by step" all along the way. Your techniques leave no doubts at all in your student's minds about how and what they are going to do with what they have learned. Even if your videos had been my first encounter with hypnosis, I would have absolutely no hesitation with working with a client for the first time- that's how clear, how concise, how thorough and how full of knowledge they are. I was flabbergasted at the tremendous quality of both the material presented and your teaching style and ability. Thank you."
John London, Phoenix, AZ

I have been in practice for five years. I would not have made it five months without your training material. Your simple "how to" approach is so helpful and to have it all on video or audio allows me to go back and review the information anytime I wish. Your video and audio tapes have been the best training investment I made in my hypnotherapy practice. Now as a Hypnotherapy instructor I want to make sure my students have access to your material. Thank you.
Linda Gentry, RN, CHt., Missouri Institute of Hypnotherapy

"I attended a Master Hypnotist Training based on NLP and mostly taught by its founder Richard Bandler in November 1990. During the summer of 1991, I attended classes in California from the basic through hypnotherapist. I want to say that your videos are the most infomative and best, and I do mean very best, training I have received. You are right, it is easy when you know how! I am looking forward to meeting you in person and taking one of your live classes in Florida."
Charlie Simon, Modesto, CA

"I had many professors but none of them have taught me more about the human mind than you. You are the greatest. I would like those so called teachers to take this course, they'll be surprised. Thank you very, very much. You have given me the skills to be successful."
Luis A. Ramirez, Ponce Puerto Rico

"Jerry, your tapes are so good! Your fervor for this profession comes through STRONG. In spite of the fact that I was recently in a accident and am confined to bed in a full body cast, I watch your tapes with great excitement and awe every day. I know, that because of your more than excellent training, when I am out of this cast, I will start my new profession with excitement and confidence. I have studied with many others, mostly in Calfornia, but your training, without a doubt, puts all the others to shame. I'm truly sorry I didn't discover you sooner. I could have saved a lot of money! Thank you."
Janet Berrier Price, Las Cruces, NM

Thank you very much for creating such a wonderful hypnosis training program. I appreciate the work and effort you have put into your basic and advanced training programs....The taped sessions of you and your clients were very impressive. I actually consider them a work of art. Thank you for sharing them with us.

"I have just completed your professional hypnosis training video course. This was a wonderful investment. The format is a great teaching tool and the material was presented in the most organized, efficient and entertaining manner I've ever encountered. There was no wasted time. You are an excellent teacher."

"Extremely well organized. Hypnotherapy section was outstanding. Looking forward to the live course."
Christopher J. Fichera, Ph.D., Hollywood FL

"I recently purchased six of your video tapes and they were absolutely superb! I am so satisfied that I am ordering two more. You are a fantastically skilled teacher. Keep up the good work."
Anthony Barone, M.D., Jamestown NY

"Enjoyed the clear and comprehensive introduction to hypnotherapy along with the more advanced material--Jerry Kein is a very talented hypnotherapist and trainer--I'm looking forward to further study with him and your center."
Gerald Falls, Ph.D., Tallahassee FL

"Thanks for our order of audio and video tapes. These would be the best training tapes we have ever had from the U.S.A. and our therapies have already improved. We have quite a few videos that we bought in California, but yours are far more informative and easy to follow."
Merve Holster, Auckland NZ

"I recently watched your tape on "Making Money in Your Hypnosis Practice" and realized I was doing all the wrong things. Your video has probably saved me hundreds of dollars in misdirected advertising. Thank you for your help!"
Gary L. Toohey, St. Louis MO

"I have studied hypnosis since the early 70's and this is the absolute best program I have ever had the opportunity to attend. I have watched the tapes about 10 times each, and I still find them interesting and informative."
Theodore R. Smith, Jr., Psy.D., Jacksonville FL

"....I have studied many other forms, but I must say, YOUR PROGRAM IS THE BEST! Your teaching abilities are to be commended. You allow the persons studying this from their home to feel as if they are in class with you. I know I did!

Hi Jerry'

Just a brief note to let you know how much I have enjoyed your tape on  Instant and Rapid inductions. I have become an Arm Drop junky. It works every  time. As a professional motivation speaker I have never had any fear of being  on the platform,.That is until last week when I did an information  presentation of hypnotherapy. My concern was that I might pick an analytical person and be embarrased. However I got a live one and became a star.

As a result, I have picked up five new clients and a request to speak to another group. You have given me a new  lease on life and hypnotherapy. Thank you so much for what you are doing for our profession.

 Sincerely,

 Frank G. Thompson

Hi Jerry,

   I'm glad the video course is available!    The information in the video course is wonderful.  And I do mean filled with wonder.  You have been truly inspired to create such a course, and I believe wholeheartedly that history will remember you always for the work you have done to promote the noble art of healing.  Words cannot express my gratitude for the quality of the material I received through Omni Training Center.  Well Done!  Perhaps we will have the opportunity to meet in person in the future.  I plan to attend the internship when finances permit.  Until then, I am certain that I have plenty to digest for the immediate future.

Greetings from one of your angels (Jerry's angels...so dubbed ourselves at last weekends conference in Orlando). I'm the redhead. Just a note to tell you how great it was to see the master work again. That would be you. I know  you told us you were great, (you can laugh here) but now after seeing so many  presenters at NGH including some of the supposed best, I couldn't agree more.

There is no one else in your league and I'm so glad I was trained by YOU.

Jerry !!!!!!!

I can't believe what is happening .........  after viewing your smoking tape,  I did so well that I now have 5 new clients in the last 3 days.   I am so busy that I will just have to raise my price to drive away business. The most interesting client was seriously depressed,  regression revealed that she was locked in a closet at 5 years old by Grandma.  What kind of a Grandma would do that ?  [a forgiven one]   This client has already sent me another  depressed friend.   Please show this letter to your new students and tell them if they study, they too will be busy and happy.

To Gerry Kein,

Just wanted to let you know my first group session of ten smokers went well as an excercise.  I have watched your video so many times I felt it was you and not I who was up in front doing everything. Don't know whether thats a good thing or not.  (grin)  All told me they thought the seminar was great and went well. I used the 'Rocky' them for the emergence.

They all stood up without me telling them to when I asked to see their hands after the emergence and asked who was a non-smoker. I felt good, thanks to you. Now I'll wait for the results. I intend to try and follow some of them up.

Best wishes in the future. When I can afford it I intend to buy all of your latest videos. They really are training films.

Sincerely.

I just want to say that after years and years of being in the field of hypnosis, and after chatting on countless hypnosis boards over the years, I strongly believe that the training we have all received from Jerry is the absolute best.  The OMNI graduates on this board have the most insight and vastest knowledge into hypnosis of any hypnotist I have ever talked to.  First I want to say Thank You to Jerry for making us all the great hypnotists we have become.  Without you Jerry we would all be Years behind in our training, and tremendously more ignorant about hypnosis and our methods of healing.  And to all of those of you on the board, I want to send out a big hoorah for all of us, because we are the greatest hypnotists out there.

Hi Jerry       

I really feel that I have wasted my time with these other techniques. And hat I paid money to learn them!!!!!   Not yours I mean another course!!! ou don't have to repeat this, but I have taken the Positive Changes Course. I have been doing progressive relaxation inductions, and it didn't take long before I got bored, so I can imagine the client. I have learned more from the 4 tapes I purchased from you than the whole 8 months I worked with the other course. I purchased your rapid induction ethods, phobia removal,pain control, and regression techniques. will continue to purchase your video tapes as I can afford them. I am anxious to change my technique, and hopefully really help someone. I will keep watching your site. Thanks so much.

PS If you ever need a sculpture, call me and we can work a deal.

 Merlin,

 Yes I am a grad of his and I would highly recommend Jerry. It is  without a doubt the best course for "pure" hypnosis out there. Jerry  is one of the best hypnotists I've ever met and the course is not

 only extremely educational but highly entertaining.( Jerry has a  million stories) If you were only allowed to take one course in your  life and could only use that courses teachings Jerry's would

 definitly be my hands down pick. Go for it!

 Todd

 P.S

I'm sure Mark will also have good things to say about Jerry. I went to Jerry's combo basic/Advanced class ten years ago -- I had already been established in practice, but I kept hearing about this

amazingly-effective wild man hypnotist down in Florida.  I'm very glad I attended -- Jerry's methods are practical and to the point, and his work within "regression to cause" is world-class.  He's probably the King of Direct Suggestion Hypnosis.  We're all indebted to him for his 40+ years of intelligent research and practice. Besides -- he's a gentleman and a scholar, in the best sense of both terms. And his version of famous true stories are funny as hell!  Jerry gives lots of value for the dollar.

Hello Mr. Kein

My name is Joshua Houghton and I am a 25 year old hypnotist in Columbus, Georgia. I just wanted to say thank you because it is because of you that I am where I am today. A friend of mine had one of your old homes study courses from 1999 and decided it wasn't for him and gave it too me. Watching your course really changed the way I looked at life and hypnosis. As a person who believes in credibility is everything. You truly bring credibility to this field. I am currently working on my National Guild of Hypnotist Certification with a training out of Atlanta, Georgia and I am also saving up to come to the Omni Hypnosis Center in person.

I am a subscriber to your podcast which are great and I have recently ordered your hypnosis for sports improvement, hypnotic regression, test anxiety and single session stop smoking program and they are all wonderful. Being 25 years old and being into hypnosis has been pretty hard, but your programs and teaching have made me feel like I’m part of something bigger. I consider you my role model and try my best to model myself after you and take things to the next level. I am look forward to possibly running across you at the convention for the NGH this year. I sent an e-mail to you a while back, but wasn't sure if you received it.

I am a big believer in telling people thank you and you have really been a big part of my hypnosis life weather you know it or not. Thank you for the credibility you bring to this field and look forward to coming to Deland one day.

 Once again thank you for everything and hopefully I’ll meet you one day so I can shake your hand or at least pay for dinner. :)

Thank You

Josh Houghton

 Dear Gerald,  This email is been sent from a student in the UK.  I got your video  training course, the one filmed in 1999.  
And i have to say so far  its  starting to change my life, my goals, my dreams.  You have inspired me to keep learning 
about hypnosis and  hypnotherapy. You are possibly the greatest hypnotist i have seen.  You seem to  know everything, all the ins and outs. 
 It is now my aim to complete your Home-Study video program and learn much more,gain  experience and open my own hypnotherapy practice.  
Its a shame but  there seems to be competition everywhere these days, quite a lot of  it.  Its a shame most of them won't have the level 
of training you  teach and will be giving hypnotherapy a bad name (some of them). Its my aim to become like you, a great hypnotherapist, 
a wise man and maybe one day a great teacher.

Dear Mr. Kein, 

I am a practicing Hypnotherapist and EFT practitioner.  I attended "Atlanta West Hypnotherapy Institute" and "Hypnosis Motivation Institute".  I was so dissatisfied with the education provided by these institutions.  I spent thousands on my Hypnotherapy education and yet I still didn't know what to do with a real client in my chair.  I learned all about the history of Hypnosis and lots of theory and philosophy, but I STILL had no idea how to be a successful Hypnotherapist- that is, until I stumbled onto your website. YOU ARE FANTASTIC!! I FINALLY KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH A CLIENT IN MY CHAIR!!  Your courses are soooo easy to follow and they actually make sense. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.  Thank You so much for your time and consideration. 

 Edna Sheffield

I saw Jerry teach a instant induction seminar at the National Guild of  Hypnotist convention and was totally shocked!  His presentation and teaching  style was the most exciting and informative that I have ever saw. I have taken several other hypnosis trainings and learned more in his one day  seminar than all my other trainings put together.  Last July I flew to Florida  to take his live class and I just want to say that it was the most exciting,  informative class I have ever taken.  This man knows hypnosis and how to teach  it! I know that some day this man will be known as the finest hypnosis instructor  of our time.  You would never waste your money investing in him.
