"Review: August
1999 NLP Practitioner Training Seminar"
Written
by J.P. Vargas. MBA. Trainer & Consultant, NLP. Mexico City, Mexico.
I attended The Performance Institute of NLP Practitioner
Certification last August to find a new world unfold before me. Not that it
wasn’t there before, I was just not aware it was. Steve Boyley in tandem with
our fantastic co-coach Elizabeth Payea Butler provided for a fun yet
profoundly enriching learning. (Indeed a powerpack!) More than taught, NLP
Practitioner skills were masterfully installed and checked. Rapport, Meta
Model, Milton Model, Pacing & Leading, and at least 15 other skills were
combined with more than 40 exercises, rich metaphors and ongoing fun in a
loose and inviting to question and to feel environment.
Small class format, plenty of time to discuss anything we
felt like, open minded instructors and a very diverse group made for one of
the most enriching learning experiences of my life. This was enhanced both by
the Hawaiian setting of the venue as well as by some of the most breathtaking
Canadian nature scenes. A far cry from the certification offered in modules
which I attended in Mexico City.
And this process has been further enhanced by an open
channel all of us have had with him since, in order to discuss further
experiences as well as new NLP developments and applications. Now, try that
now with other instructors.
Not fond of hotel nights The Gallery House was recommended
as a place to stay. One of the warmest hosts couple (Bernie & Marion) I have
ever met went way beyond their way to make me feel at home in this bed &
breakfast. Seconds after crossing the gate at the airport, I met a warm Bernie
who immediately took me on a newcomer’s tour (one of several he gave me by the
way). The Gallery House offers a stunning and several awards winning garden,
an excellent bed and breakfast, and a five minute walk to Esther’s Inn (our
venue). Check this option out for far superior accommodation at a reduced
price.
I feel confident of being a top certified practitioner
while I discover on a daily basis how much more NLP I am applying. (Wow, I did
that?) I am also quite impressed at the ease with which my seminars are sold
and how I begin to gain attention by the media. My entrepreneurship traits
have been enhanced and in less than a month’s time, more than 15 people have
asked me to coach them, and my mission is clearly imprinted in my seminars.
I highly recommend NLP with Steve.
