"NLP Training Reviews of Seminars by Steve Boyley"


Dr. Richard Bandler. Creator of NLP & DHE ™.

I highly recommend Steve Boyley of The Performance Institute of NLP. He is continually updating his training with the most up-to-date skills I have developed and is one of the few centers licensed internationally through The Society of Neuro-Linguistic Programming™.

 


   NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: September 2007

Excerpts from an interview with David Chard. NLP. Taipei, Taiwan, China.

Professional trainer David Chard is Executive Chairman Taiwan and Regional Director of Asia-Pacific Edelman Academy for Edelman, the world's largest independent public relations firm.

Steve’s presentation was superb—--inspiring. As a trainer, I really appreciated Steve’s ability to keep his energy “up” and hold our focused attention, 10 hours a day! Its accurate to say “there was never a dull moment!” It was non-stop fun from the first moments to the last good-bye. Steve is highly skilled at “using NLP to teach NLP”---that is a treat that you must experience for yourself!

Since the training I have improved my relationship with my wife and son as well as my colleagues in the office. I am able to experience myself differently as I am more consciously aware of how I am modeling the world and increasingly able to notice how others are representing reality to themselves. I have on many occasions been able to notice myself going into “auto-pilot” mode with my emotional reactions and as a result was able to “intervene” by challenging the reality of my belief, replacing it with a different belief, and then moving forward with a different response. At work I am acutely aware of the limiting patterns that occur in the speech and the writing of colleagues and this allows me to respond more consciously and more effectively.

The course covered all the standard elements of NLP Practitioner training, plus many elements from the Master Practitioner training. The best part was Steve’s ability to help us “get” what we wanted to get and his generosity with his time spent with us even “outside” the regular classroom hours. This experience with Steve Boyley was a tremendous value (check around and see what some other trainers are charging) and I am really happy that I chose the NLP Performance Institute for my first experience with NLP. I have my certificates (signed by Richard Bandler) on my office wall and I am very proud of them! What impressed me about this experience was the obvious mastery of the trainer, his committed professionalism and his way of being personally accessible before, during and after the course.

   NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: July 2007

Jackie Bush. NLP. Vancouver, BC, Canada.

Steve,

I just wanted to say Thank you for all of the skills I left your seminar with. I am in New Delhi India right now. This is my first time visiting anywhere in the world other then simple touristy places and thanks to the skills I acquired from your teachings I have found it easy to blend in as much as possible. I am here alone and as a single female I don't think I would have made it if I did not have some of the abilities you taught me. I have made some amazing contacts here (before I even got off the plane). I was asked to give a workshop on the law of attraction to 50 top executives here which I quickly agreed to.

The workshop was today and I felt totally comfortable and confident giving the workshop. I thought about the technique you taught me about getting into the 20 foot panther and I honestly felt powerful and sleek and beautiful. I think it really helped with my presentation. It was pretty fun getting to know 50 Indian business men and really getting to hear about how they feel the law of attraction can work in their lives now. I really do believe that a lot of my confidence came directly from your training so Thank You! :-) I did at one point decide to use you as a model for my presentation skills and I felt your presence coming through. I was asked immediately to give another workshop before I return back to Canada so I am happy to hear that they were satisfied as well. It is really nice to know that as a single female in a country like this I can walk into a room with 50 men and give a talk and by the end every single one of them was opening up and sharing with me. They have been treating me like a princess here and I am just here backpacking :)

Well Ill cut this short and leave you with a truly heart felt Thank you Steve!


 NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: July 2007

Nadia Harper. NLP. Las Vegas, Nevada, USA.  http://www.nisadacoaching.com

I found Steve Boyley by doing thorough research.  This course was very important to me, as I wanted to feel competent to Coach clients in my own practice.  I first searched McKenna (as I was in the UK at the time) and was then led to Bandler's website and then found Bandler had Approved Steve Boyley's Training methods so much he Endorses all NLP Training certificates.

Living in Las Vegas, Nevada, authenticity and credibility was very important to me, enough so that I was willing to Travel to Canada for the training.  From the moment I got to BC I knew I had made the right choice, Steve couldn't have been more hospitable, to all of us.  His commitment to giving his best at all times is remarkable to say the least.  Steve's knowledge and delivery of the training is so extensive and easy that we enjoyed every last minute of it, as you will too.

I left BC feeling I had found myself, I gained everything I had needed to know.  I am so excited for the way I can now impact others by understanding and using the NLP techniques taught by Steve Boyley.

When you are looking for a Quality Fun Training, make the trip to Canada. You will be very happy when you do.  I am looking forward to returning in spring for the Master Practitioner course.  It is easy and fun, which helps you learn so much more. See you at the next training.


  NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: May 2007

Shanley MacKenzie NLP, MH, CCHT, SDCH. Athabasca, Alberta, Canada    www.secrets-of-success.org

A phenomenal course! Guaranteed to stimulate your mind! Are you ready to experience the training of a lifetime? That is exactly what will happen when you attend Steve Boyley's NLP training course.

Tucked away in a cozy atmosphere in Prince George, British Columbia Canada, this seminar unravels to the point of explosion. Steve will teach you some of the top secret information of the working of the mind! Imagine what it would be like to have the inside scoop on dealing with people effectively no matter what situation you may find yourself in. Little by little this information seeps into your subconscious mind giving you the tools to conquer almost anything!

Here are just a few of the swords I gathered to fight life's battles while attending Steve's seminar in the spring of 2007:

  • The importance of understanding what people say...alerting yourself to the 5 senses.

  • Strategies to deal with anyone.

  • Communication skills...saying what you mean and meaning what you say.

  • Using NLP skills to effectively "get what you want".

  • Using NLP skills to understand what other people want.

  • and much more...

Not only are you learning valuable information, you are having great fun while you are doing it. It is more like a learning retreat! Steve also spends precious time with each and every attendee, answering questions and addressing concerns you may have. Your financial investment in this course is a mere fraction of the priceless information you will obtain! I recommend this course to anyone who needs... No, I recommend this course to EVERYONE!

Thank you Steve!

P.S. Did I mention that this course should come with a warning sign? BEWARE: "Anyone attending Steve Boyley's NLP course will attain life altering awareness and enough power-packed information to succeed in whatever they do!"


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: May 2007

Helmut Morscher. NLP. Black Diamond, Alberta, Canada.   www.webby.com

Steve, thanks to your training, I have just survived a major crisis that would otherwise have driven me insane.  You may have noticed the spoof epidemic on the net, where certain crooks released viruses, which generated fake postcard pick-up notices.  As the biggest name in postcards with over 50,000 client sites, we received incredible amounts of complaints, sometimes over 2000 per day, from people who had fallen for the spoofs.  By using the skills that you had taught me, I was able to not only outlast and beat the spoof epidemic, but actually increase the number of clients and friends.

Your course also helped me to improve my writing, and my daily newsletter now consistently gets six times more votes in independent third party rankings than second place gets. You certainly can be proud of that, Steve!

I will most definitely come back to Prince George for refresher courses, and gladly recommend your course to anybody who is serious about NLP or self improvement.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: February 2007

Jason Jackman. NLP. Surrey,  United Kingdom (UK)

For me, the decision to attend Steve's NLP Training was justified within the first few hours of the 8 day course.  I mean, why would anybody travel halfway around the world, in -15c temperatures, at their own expense and time to learn what he teaches?  Simple, it works so powerfully, is so enjoyable, and the whole time you are there is a 100% blast!.  Steve is such a giving and powerful trainer. 

When you want to achieve maximum results in minimum time you've just gotta go to Steve's incredibly affordable seminar's (even from the UK!).  Thanks Steve.


NLP Master/Practitioner Training Seminar: February 2007 (NLP Trainer studying Steve Boyley's NLP Training)

Maria-Dolores C. Haneffant, Avalon NLP Institute, Roseville, California, USA.

Maria-Dolores is a Communication Skills Master (Performance Institute of NLP), Licensed Hypnotherapist ( The American Board of Hypnotherapy), Design Human Engineer, Licensed Master Practitioner and Trainer of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (Richard Bandler Seminars Group International).

After taking courses with several different NLP Trainers, it is clearly evident that Steve Boyley is a Dynamic Presenter and a Proficient Trainer of NLP.

When you take Steve’s trainings you will leave with a sense of confidence of your NLP Skills. I recently took Steve’s NLP Training, again, to review techniques and become more proficient in my hypnosis skills…I definitely got what I came for!  The incredible atmosphere that Steve creates stimulates learning by getting your questions answered due to his personable demeanor.  He is extremely funny!

The location is relaxing with plenty of multicultural cuisines within a walking distance of the comfortable accommodations.

I definitely recommend Steve Boyley’s trainings.


NLP Master/Practitioner Training Seminar: September 2006 (NLP Master going meta)

Jeff Richards. CHt, Master Practitioner of NLP. Columbus, Ohio, USA.    Peak Performance Hypnosis

What a great time! What an amazing week!  Thank you, Steve.  Thank you for helping me learn all of this amazing stuff.  Thank you for showing me what a life as an NLP trainer was like. And thank you for showing me how an NLP training should be put together.

This is the year when I cast off the day job and do this full-time.  There's a market for it here.  People get me when they look for local hypnosis on Google.  Just from that, my business has tripled.  I've done nothing else to increase my marketing.  Now is the time for me to take that leap of faith and go to work for myself full-time.

I continue to refer folks to you. You may already know this, but I have a link to you on my website.  You helped me improve my life in ways I can't begin to measure. You are The Man.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: September 2006

Patrick A. Widmer, NLP.  Kusnacht, Switzerland.

A revelation for the open-minded, essential for those who want to get there.  Your training had quite some impact on my life.  To what extend is yet beyond my reach, the fact is that I feel good.  I am starting to use certain NLP- techniques or at least are aware of much more of what is happening around me.  I had a great time in Prince George and I am very happy I did participate.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: September 2006

Karl Hoppe, MCHt, NLP.  Mill Valley, California, USA.

Everyone wants to be more persuasive, don’t you agree? We all want to build strong communications skills, right? If you are a person who wants to increase your effectiveness in all your interactions with other people then this seminar is for you.

Steve Boyley is clearly a masterful trainer in the finer points of Neuro Linguistic Programming. As you hear Steve presenting the strategies and techniques of successful NLP practices it is easy to imagine the many ways you will use these concepts in your daily life. Theoretical discussions are punctuated by concrete examples of “real world” situations, illustrating exactly how these models are used in every-day activities. Balancing the formal instructions are practical hands-on workshops where you can see exactly how it feels to utilize these perspectives in your own speech and actions. Listening to feedback from the other students helps you get a firm grasp of the course material, illuminating how to really focus on honing your abilities. Steve’s well deserved international reputation for excellence virtually guarantees a diverse group of cohorts with whom to share this exciting and rewarding educational experience.

After completing the seminar I had to ask myself, “Why didn’t you do this sooner?”  Then again, there is no time like the present, is there?  But don’t just take my word for it, go to the seminar and find out for yourself.

“If a man empties his purse in his head, no one can take it away from him. An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest.” Benjamin Franklin.


   NLP Master Practitioner Training Seminar: July 2006

Shona O'Connor, Master Practitioner of NLP.  Bedfordshire, UK

Myself, my husband and our 2 children attended Steve's July course in Canada.  We live in the UK and found the course amazing value.  The cost of the course for 4 of us was only slightly more than I would have paid for my Master's course alone over here.  In terms of course content value - it was excellent.  I have never had so much fun, or laughed so much on a course in my life.  The learning was effortless and so much fun.  Our 2 children, who were 12 and 14 at the time, also had a great time and found NLP so easy under Steve's tuition.  Having already trained as a NLP Practitioner in the UK, I can say that Steve's style of teaching was far better than the teaching I received here.  He makes the subject very straightforward and easy to understand.  We also had a fantastic holiday in Canada along with the amazing experience of a course with a real international flair, with trainees from a variety of countries.  It's an experience I wouldn't have missed for the world. I'm telling all my friends over here to go and train with Steve, rather than in the UK.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: July 2006

Yves Miserez, NLP.  Zaventem, Belgium.     Optima Facto Management consulting

It is amazing what you learn in Steve’s seminar while you listen to him, while you watch him and while you feel yourself growing after each exercise and experience.  The delivery of tips, techniques and strategies to deal with your own communication as well as with the communication of your audience is very enriching.  The approach is different than in other seminars that I have followed professionally over the years, which makes it interesting, fun to follow and paradigm-breaking.  Examples, metaphors, analogies, ambiguities, practical exercises…and theory only where needed…MY KIND OF APPROACH.


NLP Master Practitioner Training Seminar: July 2006

George Gold, Master Practitioner of NLP.  Mexicali, Baja California, Mexico.

Steve uses NLP to teach NLP in a masterful way. He has the uncanny ability to teach a group and its individuals simultaneously.  I, like other fortunate students of Steve's trainings, am a walking testimonial to his outstanding level of excellence and skill. You can read every book written on NLP and still not get what you learn in 8 days with Steve Boyley.  You will also perform incredibly well, once you complete his seminar.  Find your dream and build it by signing up now for Steve's course!  Read more of this review

 


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: May 2006

Douglas Perras.  Owner - Nepal Gifts, Practitioner of NLP.  Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.

If I had only made one key distinction in my life, it would have been worth the cost.  Not only have I quit smoking, increased my business profits and developed my communication skills.... I have also assisted friends and family with personal limitations, effective goal setting and relaxation techniques.  Two days after the course I almost burst into laughter as I effectively put someone into hypnosis and cured their snoring. I was amazed!!! 

From start to finish, I felt as if my personal needs were being met with each new technique that Steve introduced.  The informal setting allows people to relax and learn effectively.  And the structure of the course allows for a large amount of retention in a short period of time. 

At any time that I or anyone else felt that they didn't get it, Steve would make sure they did.  No one was left behind.  As Steve says, "It's not what you know, but what you do with what you know." and he made sure that each of us knew how to use the skills effectively, not just be able to talk about the process.  Even after the course has completed, if I have a specific question, I can expect a prompt reply.

Almost everyday I realize a new distinction or lesson that I got from the training as I apply them to my life. I look forward to doing my Master Practitioner Training with Steve in the near future and highly recommend his course to anyone who wants to learn how to effectively communicate with themselves and others.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: May 2006

Mike Rolph. NLP.  Kent, UK.

Well thanks again for the care over and above the call of duty, and what can I say about the training? Well unlike most people attending Steve's NLP training I had no fixed idea of where it would be of benefit to me and how. I had read books and watched videos and understood the concepts but had no practical experience of its use in everyday life. I felt that only by experience would I gain a practical skill.

I chose Steve because of his background of practical application in sales and the building of his own business and felt that his approach would therefore be direct and practical. I was not disappointed.

The training was concise and entertaining, questions were answered always and points demonstrated with incidents from Steve's own varied life experiences, and always with clarity and humour. Note taking is kept to a minimum so that you can concentrate on the instruction and the supplied documentation really covers everything you need, you even get CDs to take with you on leaving to ensure that you can reinforce the knowledge that you gained so that the gains are permanent.

While each day is intense they are interesting fun, and the breaks are just right for maintaining concentration.

The training room at the Days Inn provided a good environment and the Downtown Motel under Jackies watchful eye was clean and comfortable, 2 minutes away and excellent value for money as was everything else in Prince George.

Well did it work for me? I discovered that the mind is a strange and wonderful thing and that hypnosis is an amazing tool for accessing it and I am about to attend further training in this area, a direction that I had not even considered before meeting Steve Boyley.

I read somewhere that it impossible to attend an NLP training without obtaining some positive benefit, and in my own experience and my observation of those who attended with me that is certainly true of Steve and his NLP Mind.


NLP Master Practitioner Training Seminar: February 2006

Hingdranata Nikolay,   Certified Hypnotherapist, Certified Time LineTM Therapist, Human Resources & Training Manager of TIMEZONE Indonesia, Master Practitioner of NLPTM..  Jakarta Utara, Indonesia.

I've learned NLP from 4 different gurus, read a lot of books on NLP and of course earned my Master Prac certification with Steve and Prac Certification from an institution in other country. After earning my Prac Certification, and through some years of NLP readings, I focused a lot on NLP methodology. Maybe it was only my own taking of NLP, using my own MAP. I knew that there was something missing and that I didn’t know what I supposed to know in order to complete my learning.

Within the 8 days, Steve showed me a different approach to NLP and Hypnotherapy learning. He exposed to me a lot of 'linguistic' and communication parts of NLP that were not on my MAP before, and which are exciting and thought provoking. My MAP on NLP and life was broadened and enriched. Awesome! I would recommend him to anybody who would want to be exposed more on NLP way of communicating. Steve 'walks the talk'!

Now I'm able to use more effectively what I learn in the Prac certification and other Hypnotherapy classes. In my training classes and therapy room, I use a lot of things I learned from the 8 days in Prince George.

Steve is an excellent NLP Trainer!


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: February 2006

Paul Thomas. NLP.  Manchester, Lancashire, UK.

Its been so much fun applying what we've learnt and I've really noticed how the skills have improved over these first 4 months. I'm really glad I listened to your suggestions about taking some time between Prac and Master Prac, its like learning to drive, passing the test is only the beginning, I've learned so much more by actually using the skills.

The course notes have been invaluable (but beginning to show severe signs of wear :-)) ...... and the CD's, well they're my favorite ......its like being able to have my own private trip back to Prince George where and whenever I want .......and they have been so good at reinforcing the learning.

Have to say that the course exceeded my expectations when I took it in Feb, but I'm even happier now as the results keep on coming and I am amazed how much of the course I have retained and managed to use.... suffice to say Steve I put it all down to the unique mix you manage to achieve at your training courses i.e. your passion for NLP, that unique Boyleying training style, the personal attention you give each and every student on the course, the small group size, the relaxed and fun learning environment and the incredible mix of people that are drawn to the course.

I can't wait to come back next Feb (who knows I might even get a decent fall of snow this time!)


NLP Master Practitioner Training Seminar: September 2005

Trevor Shea, Master Tattoo Artist. and Master Practitioner of NLP.  Vancouver, BC, Canada.

Steve Boyley introduced a metaphor many times throughout his NLP Training course, that I identified with this cyclical statement; "The PROCESS is the product".  Definitely the most valuable product we could, by and by, end up purchasing. 

Amnesia

The last night of the NLP Master Training seminar, Saturday night at the party, I noticed Steve Boyley's reactions when I asked if he induced trance on a particular delegate earlier that night.  Of course I knew he had, and of course I was really encouraging a demonstration of how.  That is, how to easily, covertly, induce trance in an individual who can make and identify many levels of correlation simultaneously.  How to get past their defenses; their conscious watchdog programs. 

A demonstration of many strategies and techniques:

Steve Boyley answered my question by covertly putting me into trance while we watched and enjoyed what was going on around us. He demonstrated to me through my experience.  Read more of this review


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: September 2005

Michelle Payton, National Award-winning Author, Owner/Founder of The Left Side (international wholesale distributor), Certified Hypnotherapist, Bachelor’s Communication Arts, Nationwide (U.S. and Canada) Radio Guest  www.theleftside.com, Licensed Neuro-Linguistic Programmer.  Powell, Ohio, USA.

My stay at the local motel (across from the training center) was safe, quaint, affordable, and friendly.  Steve is a unique teacher that kept my attention for 8 straight days (for twelve plus hours per day)!  He puts all of his teachings into action--Live Learning.  The concept that had the biggest impact on me is that NLP (from Steve's perspective) is about communicating effectively to people in a way that "they" effectively understand it.  As a professional communicator--an author of multiple books, a speaker, a teacher, and radio guest nationwide--my communication skill level has increased multiple folds.  In some workshops I might have one "ah ha" moment. In this workshop, it was a constant influx of "ah ha's."  I frame my life more effectively and presuppose less in my communication.  I feel more personal power as a result.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: July 2005

Christopher BS Nichols / Nie Ci Ben, NLP.  Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

After reviewing 2 dozen sites across Europe, North America and Australia, which were all too verbose and inconcise, I returned to your site again and again to re-read all the valuable information that I would learn and to check the schedule and pricing.

What was important to me was the cost, the timing, the duration, the content, the class size, the venue, the learning experience and the demonstration and execution of the knowledge gained both by the instructor and myself.

Steve’s language is to the point and conveys exactly the information, expectation and promise to develop NLP skills in the inductee in a tone, full of fun, mischief and cheek that elicits attention and compliance, giving one a sense of understanding and fascination so that the hours fly by each day as the new knowledge seeps in deep.

Steve keeps you interested, awake and on yer toes all the time with a lecture here and there with plenty of anecdotes to keep you amused and interested, they demonstrate the lesson being instructed.  Read more of this review.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: July 2005

Valerie Hansen, NLP.  Prince George, BC, Canada.

The class was an interesting mix of shapes, sizes, professions, ages and homeports. As you might expect in a communications course, there were a few (American) actors and a (Canadian) lawyer, but who expected a college kid from New York or a Chinese Medicine practitioner from Australia? That Ozzie was most particular about choosing this particular training course I might add, he told me he did some shopping around.

It was interesting to watch the interaction within the group and how a few uptight folks quickly loosened up. Contrary to the idea of some educators that, "learning isn't supposed to be fun," this course incorporates a lot of laughter. My kind of teaching indeed.  Read more of this review.


NLP Master Practitioner Training Seminar: May 2005

Dr. Dõv Baron. PhD, Master Practitioner of NLP.  Vancouver, BC, Canada.     www.baronmastery.com

Steve Boyley's 8 Day NLP training is an excellent investment of your, time, money, and effort. Having been a practitioner of NLP for more than 15 years I have attended many NLP Trainings, it is clear to me that Steve Boyley is in a class of his own.

It doesn't matter whether you are a seasoned practitioner or a complete novice Steve presents in his unique style, a style which allows everyone in the room to get even the deeper complexities of NLP. He made the training fun and challenges each and every participant to step out of and beyond their reality and into a realm of possibility. This creates a level playing field for all participants and a greater sense of what is possible in all things.

I unequivocally recommend that "you" take Steve's training.


NLP Master Practitioner Training Seminar: May 2005

Mike Lalonde. CHt, CD, Master Practitioner of NLP.  Beaverbank, Nova Scotia, Canada.

Once again, I find myself here in Prince George! The course running the same hours, and once again I’m having the same excellent experience! Only the dates have changed…only the dates have changed??? Who am I fooling?

There is nothing that compares with personal experience. And since I had already experienced first hand the skilled magic of Steve Boyley’s NLP instruction, I opted to further my education in NLP with Steve. I had asked other Master NLPer’s that had received training from other trainers prior to their Master training with Steve and they only verified exactly what I already knew. Simply put, Steve provides the most comprehensive and practical instruction in NLP. His utilization of NLP to teach NLP is his assurance (and yours) that you will receive the knowledge you need to utilize NLP effectively.

The past few months I’ve been finding that I am having an even easier time helping my clients deal with their issues and have even noticed further positive changes in my own person. In order to fully appreciate the true value one gets from this Master Neuro-Linguistic Programming course, one must experience it for themselves. I liken it unto the movie ‘The Matrix’ where you begin to see the programs rather than just the obvious!  Read more of this review.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: February 2005

Seloua Nour. NLP.  Kelowna, BC, Canada.

I had a wonderful time at the training, learning so much stuff, making new friends... I had lots of fun learning from you. Your ways of teaching are outrageous and stimulating ; and I truly liked your down-to-earth application of NLP. I loved every bit of the training. I felt a real shift in my perception of myself and others. And since the training I have more energy and motivation to achieve my goals. I'll sure come back for the master NLP training. Thank you, Thank you!


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: February 2005

Eric Rounce, B.Comm. (Hons), M.B.A., LLb., Member of the Bars of Alberta and Saskatchewan. NLP.  Lloydminster, Alberta, Canada

"It is truly a delight to receive more than your money's worth in a training session. Steve delivers the goods! When I mentioned I wanted to have my teenagers trained, his whole state immediately lit up.  He truly enjoys teaching youth and, like me, appreciates the benefits a young person gains from having this technology early on in life.  In eight days of February 2005, I had the BEST TIME OF MY LIFE!  I wholeheartedly recommend training with Steve.  Read more of this review.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: February 2005

Dmitriy Shornikov.  NLP.  Los Angeles, California, USA.

The seminar was a magical show.  Steve showed us use of NLP first; and results were unbelievable until he explained them.  It was entertaining from beginning till the end; all learning was watching the show and acting in the show.  I learnt huge amount of information during these 8 days.  Steve made simple for understanding even most complex topics.

During seminar I stayed in Downtown motel.  It’s inexpensive; however it does not have an Internet connection.  Days Inn has Internet hotspot which is free.  It’s very convenient.

After the seminar I noticed that my communication skills with my friends and coworkers are dramatically improved.  Improvisation technique, I learnt in the beginning of seminar, is very helpful.  NLP improved all areas of my life, even my martial art training.  I am also able to help others using my NLP skills.  Once, I was driving to San Francisco when my friend called me up.  He just broke up with his girlfriend and felt depressed and guilty.  I questioned him using my new NLP skills during our half an hour conversation.  He realized the source of the problem.  Next day he thanked me, said that he found the solution; and he felt good about it.

It was my first NLP seminar and I am pleased having such a brilliant teacher as Steve.  I got very powerful and invaluable knowledge and skills.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: February 2005

Lorraine Batstone.  Fitness and Weight Loss Franchise Owner. NLP.  Newfoundland, Canada.

From language and communication patterns to other strategies of human behavior, I left this training equipped with the skills to regain control of my life, and the confidence to create the future I want, both personally and professionally.   Read more of this review.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: September 2004

Tom Eagles. Writer & Hypnotherapist. NLP.  Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada.

IMO, the entire experience, from the training itself to the after-class gatherings with people with whom I truly cherished sharing time and teachings, was a part of a process of learning that exceeded what you will experience in a traditional seminar setting. Yes, the bar setting is a big part of it for me, and it will resonate with the rest of you, too. Think: "Cheers" for the NLP set!"  Read more of this review.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: September 2004

André E. Harding, NLP.  New York, New York, USA.

Steve Boyley, is exceptional. He unquestionably has a mastery of the material, and he emphasizes PRACTICE. There is A LOT of opportunity to practice what we are learning, and Steve is always near to participate and to lend help when needed. Steve teaches the terminology and so forth, but we are encouraged to USE NLP, not know all the jargon. Steve is also one of the FUNNIEST PEOPLE I HAVE EVER MET! He has a unique personality, and during the entire training you'll find yourself laughing uncontrollably.

What is for sure is that you will know more than enough to change yourself and to help others change themselves.  All in all, this seminar was unforgettable, and I look forward to returning in February 2005 for my Master Practitioner training.  Read more of this review.


NLP Master Practitioner Training Seminar: September 2004

Wayne Erlenbusch. President. Erlen-Busch Realty Group. Master Practitioner of NLP.  Vancouver, Washington, USA.

Steve, just a note to let you know that now that a couple of weeks have passed since my time with you in Prince George, it is becoming increasingly obvious the extent of learning that has manifested it's self....  far beyond my expectations.  Your style of teaching is one of the best I've ever heard.  I told someone the other day that if you want to feel like you have the ability to get what ever you want in life, call/write Steve now you'll be glad you did.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: September 2004

Bernie Nordquist. Master Practitioner of NLP.  Prince George, BC, Canada.

Hi Steve,

Having just attended your NLP seminar of September 2004, I must comment that I found your approach to be very direct, entertaining and most of all enlightening. Your discussions and lectures made the concepts seem so easy to understand.

What I really consider phenomenal is the effect the seminar has had on me personally. I have never felt this energized, this confident and this empowered before in my life, and as you know, I am now 64 years old. I should really change that to 64 years young, because that is just how I feel; young. The world has not changed and I know that, but certainly my view of the world has. I feel unable to become annoyed at anything and a new phrase has seemingly popped into my vocabulary: "Don't sweat the small stuff." And most" stuff " seems small indeed.

I do not know how many years fate is to allow me, and I do not spend time thinking about it: for I do think now that life is not about how many breathes one takes, but how many breathless moments life can provide and for this I thank you Steve. Thank you, thank you.

Best regards,

PS. I forgot to mention that I have the good fortune of being your father-in-law. Because of that connection, I suppose people just might think the above to be a contrived piece of fiction. They might: They might also whistle "Dixie" through the orifice of their choosing! I could care less!


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: September 2004

Adline Saunders, NLP.  Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

Steve – This past 8 days will stay with me the rest of my life. Learning NLP gave me more power than I ever thought possible. Your training style was a complete surprise and more fun than a really great vacation. My head is still vibrating from laughing – and from learning so much in so little time. And I got so attached to everyone; I now need NLP to treat the separation anxiety.

I have passed your name on to a friend in Prince George and also a relative in Vancouver. They both have family members who could use your help. I’m also encouraging our children to attend one of your sessions. And once I have time to review and practice using my new skills. I would like to come back and take the Master Practitioner session.

Thanks again Steve – that was the experience of a lifetime.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: July 2004

Mike Lalonde. CHt, NLP Beaverbank, Nova Scotia, Canada.

Steve teaches NLP by using NLP and his emphasis is on the practical application of NLP, rather then the terminology.  I feel I had a good grasp of each application after hearing and practicing each topic he lectured on.  What I found impressive was learning how each skill and sub-skill relates to and uses each other to produce positive outcomes.

I loved this course.  It has been a month since I finished this course and I’m still receiving insight from Steve’s teachings.  It has changed my life in many positive ways.  I’ve found that I am better able to focus on my goals (which are now ‘well formed’).  This has drastically simplified my life and made me a happier me.  In every facet of my life, I have felt a positive rippling effect!  Read more of this review.


NLP Master Practitioner Training Seminar: July 2004

Jeff Richards. CHt, Master Practitioner of NLP. Columbus, Ohio, USA.    Peak Performance Hypnosis

While training with Richard was a great experience, I am jealous of the Practitioner delegates from your training.  They got a much richer Practitioner training experience than I got in London, were exposed to a lot more material and received better guidance in how to use NLP in the real world.

Steve, you are a great trainer. You have the skills of Richard Bandler and the energy and real-world focus that are necessary to make training a real pleasure. I'm very glad that I chose to be a delegate at your training and recommend to anyone interested in NLP training, that they stop waiting and start planning their trip to Prince George now for training with you.  Read more of this review.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: February 2004

Johnny Terrell  NLP.  Arkansas, USA. It's About Time Leadership Development and Consulting Services

I was very impressed with Steve Boyley’s NLP training. When I was thinking about attending I was worried about how I could stay interested and excited for the 8 days of training. From the minute Steve starts his training you are taken on a journey through NLP and all my concerns about being interesting and holding my attention were quickly given way to an incredible 8 days of learning, fun, laughter, crying, and so many other emotions. It was definitely not boring! Steve has an engaging style of teaching and is probably the best teacher I have ever been involved with. Being previously from corporate America it was refreshing to be in his class because he throws out all the traditional teaching approaches and provides fresh insights delivered in a most unique way.   Read more of this review.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: September 2003

Dawson Barber.  President - Prophet Consulting Group.  Certified Consulting Partner - Miller Heiman, Incorporated. NLP.  Vancouver, BC, Canada.

All in all, I wanted to say that I thoroughly enjoyed the training, your style, your city, and I have to give you top marks also on the value.  There are few products, services, and experiences these days that you find where the value well exceeds the cost.  Your training is one of them.

NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: September 2003

Dar Dixon. Professional Actor. NLP. Los Angeles, California, USA.

Steve has an infectious, upbeat, positive attitude that permeates the air.  He brings it with him wherever he goes!  I really appreciated that, considering the amount of info and time that we spent together in the training.  Steve also possesses one of the CRAZIEST personalities that you will ever meet…on this planet!!! 

He laughs constantly.  He is very sharp and very funny.  There were at least a dozen times that I was in tears from laughter.  HE IS MY KIND OF GUY.  Read more of this review.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: July 2003

Carrie Mackerwicz, Life Coach, Entrepreneur. NLP.  Main, USA.

I have been pleased far beyond my expectations with Steve Boyley’s NLP training and the resulting transformed world into which I have since emerged.  Steve was more than adept, displaying not only a mastery of the concepts he taught, but also an elegantly effective teaching style laced with a charisma and bold humor that is impossible not to love.  The set-up was easy with very affordable lodging right across the street from the seminar at the Downtown Motel.  I was amazed at how friendly and hospitable the staff was; they even went so far as to throw us a barbecue on the last night of the training.  Read more of this review.


NLP Master Practitioner Training Seminar: July 2003

Salim Razavi. Management Consultant  Master Practitioner of NLP.  Virginia. USA.

Everything about this seminar was beyond my expectations and this was the first time I had such an experience with a seminar, this should tell it all.  As a trainer, instructor and presenter, you were just GREAT.  The knowledge transfer was tremendous, the group was very intelligent, the exercises were stimulating, the handouts were great, and more than anything.... I appreciate the follow up that you are doing with knowledge transfer and retention.  I definitely take it if you offer another seminar.

Thank you very much for a great experience.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: July 2003

Mike Rohrig, Realtor.  www.mikecandoit.com, NLP.  Oregon, USA.

The Steve Boyley practitioner training was absolutely fantastic.  He made what many feel is a difficult subject, easy to learn and practical.  I couldn't believe at the end of the training how much I learned.  I told my wife it wasn't a vacation because it was a 10 hour a day training minus lunch breaks.  Wow was I wrong!  It was an absolute blast and I have made life long friends.  I haven't laughed so consistently for 8 days in my life.  Steve made this an open learning event with no question unanswered and always ready to help.  The exercises quickly set the principles and ideas in your mind.  The cost of the training was less than I had ever seen and I couldn't imagine higher quality training.  The city is beautiful, the people hospitable and the lodging great and affordable.  I will repeat what another student said, "So much better than I imagined, and I am hard to please."  Thank you so much.  I will be back for more and maybe take my wife on your splendid vacation.

Use this in any form, take excerpts, whatever. Thank you very much Steve.


NLP Master Practitioner Training Seminar: May 2003

Dr. Sorror Qarooni. Master Practitioner of NLP.  Bahrain.

Having seen many NLP trainers before, I found Steve to be a dynamic and capable trainer. He teaches from his heart and wants to make sure that his students are getting the best knowledge he has. His seminars are full of valuable knowledge mixed with fun. I came all the way from Bahrain to Canada to attended the Master practitioner training with Steve and I am glad I did so. It was worth every penny I spent on this seminar.


NLP Master Practitioner Training Seminar: May 2003

Craig S. Eubanks CHt, Master Practitioner NLP.  California, USA.

My business partner and I recently completed Steve Boyley's NLP Master Practitioner Certification Training, and the more we review all that we learned, the more we are totally impressed with all that we received. We have both already put our new learnings to work with clients with great success. Read more of this review


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: May 2003

Amit Batra. NLP.  India.

I highly recommend Steve Boyley of the Performance Institute of NLP.  What I really appreciate about Steve is his 'Sincere Playfulness', that means Steve is really sincere with coaching foundations of NLP in the most playful and outrageous way.  If anyone wants not only to know the life changing techniques of NLP but also how to use them and practice them in real life then immersion in a Excellent Seminar is a MUST and Steve provides us with that opportunity of immersion in the 8 days of fun learning.  Read more of this review...


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: September 2002

Brenda Holder, CHt. Entrepreneur. NLP.  Alberta, Canada.

I really enjoyed taking the NLP training in September by Steve Boyley and I felt a few comments would be in order, since there were so many great things that came out of the training for me. Read More of This Review.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: September 2002

B. G. Clarke, CEO of an Equipment Lease Financing Company. NLP.  Seattle, Washington, USA.

Boyley …. Boyley … Boyley.  Forgive my tardiness in thanking you for the wonderful experience and knowledge I gleaned.

I have one regret and a suggestion for your future seminars.  I regret having wasted 2 years making the decision to come to Prince George for the 8 days of training.  I suggest that in future you eliminate the god awful offensive Folgers coffee you provided and instead provide Starbucks coffee to future practitioner attendees

As you know I was only interested in the business application of NLP.

Good news.  My relationship with my employees and sales force has improved significantly, difficult customers are now compliant, and now do what I suggest.  When I use My new NLP skills on my banker (especially the imbedded commands) ….. Well it is amazing …………I now get what I want.

An unexpected by product of the training is my improved relationship with my daughter who as a college student thinks she knows it all.

May the force continue to be with you …………. Always.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: September 2002

Maridela Hernandez - De Guzman, MA. HR Consultant. NLP.  Philippines.

Steve, thank you for being so sensitive to pick up what I shared about what I was anxiously anticipating for that week of my vacation.  That night in class, I didn't even realize you were beginning to work on my discomfort with dogs...  Read More of This Review.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: July 2002

Kelly Hartnett, Railway Engineer. NLP.  BC, Canada.

I'm doing great! As you said, it was a month or so before things started kicking in. The heightened awareness has really exploded. As far as work goes... my job on the train offers me situations to help people with their gear, I see them and know who is going to tip so I just accept and make them happy. Who would have thought I could make more money. The program has been paying for itself; as soon as I started back to work, as well as... the airport people let my bike ride for free, as well as... giving me a 1st class upgrade. Funny thing the way life works out, ha ha cya.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: July 2002

Barbara Rice, Entrepreneur. NLP.  Alberta, Canada.

....You have given me tools to see, feel and listen to others, this allows me to become a better person who can love herself, despite what is outside of me. And knowing this allows me to love others unconditional, and the goal is to test this love with the tools you have given me and to listen, see, and feel the feedback. Feedback being the key word for me at this time, I love that word feedback, what a wonderful acknowledgement of who we are.  Read More of This Review.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: July 2002

Dale Maxwell, CHt, Personal Coach. NLP.  California, USA.

Since taking the NLP training with Steve Boyley in Canada, I have noticed that I more easily maintain my heightened state of awareness in communications with others and in my self dialog.

  • I am amused by the Ambiguities presented in headlines and comics.

  • I am outraged by some professional writers & columnists (I observed an embedded program that commanded an age to contract a disease!).

  • In working with clients I am more confident, listen better and have been achieving better command.

I highly recommend Steve's training.

January 2005, someone named Mike requested an update from Dale about the long term results of his training.  Here is his recorded response.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: May 2001

Nancy Levine. NLP.  Seattle, Washington, USA.

I went to Steve's training over a year ago. I still reap many rewards - and continue to learn daily. It's now about refreshing my brain and reviewing scripts, etc.

It was well worth the investment and I recommend him highly. The training well paid for itself. Every interview I've had since then has resulted in a job offer. (getting to the interview is still a challenge sometimes)

My relationships are all better. I feel better. When feeling stressed, I can use any number of the patterns to reframe my own mind. That alone is worth the cost, but when working with others it makes it most valuable.

Life is good! Take the class when you can. If you can't make a class, there are some videos you can find on ebay that will give you a great start, but the class will give you embedded skill.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: May 2001

Christine Henderson, Entrepreneur. NLP.  Vancouver, BC, Canada.

I've found that I've been able to affect a great deal of change around me, making life operate much more smoothly for me and others.  I knew I was good before, now I know I'm better!!  I've been an NLP Practitioner for only a month and the results I have experienced has dramatically increased my "getting the results that I want" percentage, and oddly enough those around me seem to be getting more of what they want too.  Read More of This Review.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: March 2000

Stephan Stavrakis. Systems Manager. NLP.  Vancouver, BC, Canada.

Steve's training was a relaxing and at the same time a POWERHOUSE of knowledge that engulfs your every neurotransmitter, energizing your neurology with a completely different way to look at the world.  Read More of This Review.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: August 1999

Pam Feder. Entrepreneur. NLP.  Los Angeles, California, USA.

Incredible high energy, sensational humor, compelling voice inflections that were intoxicating, concerned with the greater good of each student and the skills absorbed, continued support and training, well experienced in all techniques being taught and fantastic command of NLP, clear presentations with plenty of examples....  Read More of This Review.


NLP Practitioner Training Seminar: August 1999

J.P. Vargas. MBA. NLP.  Mexico City, Mexico.
