NLP Practitioner Training - Rex Sikes & Jonathan Altfeld
published by administrator on Mon, 2012-04-30 21:34
MAJOR NEWS in the NLP Field:
After the extraordinary NLP Trainer Rex Steven Sikes left NLP in 2002 to pursue other dreams, we've all been worse off, for the past 10 years. It was our loss -- Rex was a gifted trainer, and was known for training deep skills and rich experiences.
If you missed out on getting to train with Rex... you've got a rare and unprecedented opportunity to develop your NLP skills with two extraordinary trainers.
We're going to keep this page as short & sweet as possible. For any serious NLP student... this is a dream opportunity. No other workshop this year is likely to compare.
Our message is pretty straightforward, so we're not going to sugar coat it or hype it up.
The field of NLP has been impoverished without Rex Steven Sikes around. He's been busy making films and doing other fascinating forms of entertainment and corporate presentations. NLP students haven't had this opportunity in more than 10 years!
If deep NLP skills are important to you... if you'd like to get a chance to train with the one NLP trainer that was continually consulted during the "OJ Simpson Murder Trial" by the news outlets, attorneys, and the "Defense Dream Team", then join us.
Rex and Jonathan share a belief that NLP certification courses ought to be a lot longer than 7 days, which seems to be the norm. Those short courses produce insufficient skills. Immersive courses make all the difference. So they decided to run a 12-day course this year together. You're going to get a LOT of time with both of them; both of them (and assistants) will be present in the training room together, the majority of the time.
Jonathan counts Rex as not only an amazing trainer, but as one of his strongest influences, so if you like Jonathan's style, you'll likely love Rex. If you've been to any of Jonathan's workshops, you'll certainly have heard Rex's name mentioned. Several of Jonathan's preferred exercise drills are credited to Rex's work.
Rex has watched for 15 years from a distance, keeping his eye on what NLP businesses were continuing to do good training work, continued to hear positive things about Jonathan's training work, and finally they got to work together in Orlando FL, in November 2012. Choosing Jonathan as his training partner after 10 years away... was an enormous compliment to the Mastery InSight Institute. (Thanks Rex!) And if you couldn't attend the November 2012 Orlando course, you'll have the opportunity AGAIN soon!
Extraordinary Results Await You:
You're in luck...
If you expect and desire to develop deep and effective skills, woven together as a tapestry of holistic skills you can use in parallel.
If you want to elevate above the typical "NLP formulas" or "theory" you've read about in books, and stop just talking about NLP, but actually begin doing it, even as early as day one of a training.
If you mistakenly thought NLP was a big set of single techniques to apply one at a time, and would like to step into a new you.
If you'd like to attend a training that is uplifting, joyful, fun, transformative -- as WELL as highly effective and educational!
If you're ready to shake up... your current lifestyle &/or business patterns and start creating new ones.
Rex's courses were always known for being upbeat, supportive, transformative, powerful, and subtle. Rex himself is warm, approachable, charismatic, fascinating himself, AND fascinated with you and what we can enjoy together.
Jonathan's courses are known for the pursuit of the effective artistry of NLP, seemingly casual and easygoing, yet profoundly impactful through subtle training and building of the undercurrents supporting growth and discovery. Jonathan himself is committed to helping each person overcome stuck habits and less-than-useful patterns, as well as building new possibilities and training the skills that will help anyone create an entire new future for themselves.
Here's what one of Rex & Jonathan's students wrote in December 2012, after taking their November Practitioner course!

here's what's been said about NLP:
"NLP has metamorphosed into an all-purpose self-improvement program and technology." - Time Magazine
"NLP could be the most important synthesis of knowledge about human communication to emerge since the explosion of humanistic psychology in the sixties." - Science Digest
"Neuro-Linguistic Programming, co-founded by Richard Bandler and John Grinder, is an approach to psychotherapy that uses language patterns and metaphor to communicate with the unconscious mind." - Playboy
"NLP may be the most powerful vehicle for change in existence." - Modern Psychology
"NLP... is in fact the analysis of human communication processes with practical applications in training/learning situations, people management and self-management. It's about openness, the ability to change, and creating well-formed outcomes. That's probably why the idea has become so successful in today's turbulent world of work and personal life." - Mortgage Strategy
"...NLP cannot be dismissed as just another hustle. Its theoretical underpinnings represent an ambitious attempt to codify and synthesize the insights of linguistics, body language, and the study of communication systems." - Psychology Today

Recently, on social media, an NLP Practitioner asked a question about a client who reported having a phobia, and with whom he used the NLP Fast Phobia Cure, which may have partly worked, but it came back a few days later?
As of September 2020, we're in the process of moving from Tampa, Florida, to the Youngstown Ohio area.
Currently, during the Coronavirus era, we're mostly focusing on Zoom-based Coaching, and aligning resources to run online courses.
Watch NLP Co-Founder Richard Bandler use NLP to eliminate Michael Strahan's phobic response to snakes -- in minutes (with Kelly Ripa bringing over a BIG snake at the end to test Michael's response). Spoiler alert: It worked ridiculously well.
No matter what skill you want to learn, no matter what fears or concerns or hesitation you may have, there are and will always be a wide range of approaches, to learning that skill. It's important to keep that in mind when making learning choices.
Many more famous people have been trained in Ericksonian (indirect) Hypnosis and NLP than you might guess. There are certainly far more who have strong interests here than have publically admitted so.
As someone relatively new to the subject of NLP I greatly appreciated the mix and range of experience available to me on the linguistic wizardry seminar. Knowledge sharing wasn't just encouraged by Jonathon, but expected as a pre-requisite to getting the most out of the course. As a result this added to the whole seminar experience from day one. Perhaps of greatest benefit to me was the way that Jonathon ensured that we learned as much during lunch breaks and evening conversations as we had learned during the day. By joining us Jonathon showed how the material could be usefully integrated in the real world - achieving shop discounts ethically, was another great bonus. During the course, the practical sessions and brain gym exercises were highly enjoyable - I've already used one or two as handy exercises to occupy the attention of boisterous nephews and nieces. It seems NLP really is 'child's play'. In general, I would like to have played around with more examples of 'state-chaining' through story telling. The Village Council sessions allowed me to see for myself how I'd benefited from the course. Personal benefits for me since the course have been in my professional and social interactions - for instance I now find it easier to model the behaviours of colleagues who have enviable influencing styles; I now see interactions as an opportunity to share stories in a more exciting way; and the quality of my presentations (and joke telling) have improved. For this I believe Jonathon should take some credit.
Everything I’ve bought from Jonathan invites you to stretch yourself, or as Jonathan puts it, to be aggressive with your learning. And when you do the exercises and actively engage with the material, you’ll find there are few products on the market that produce as great an impact in your skill development as Jonathan’s do. Jonathan and Doug’s new Belief Craft MP3s are a thorough grounding in two skill-sets: Knowledge Engineering (how to track beliefs conversationally), and Sleight of mouth (how to reframe a person’s belief in at least 16 different ways). Once you actually do the exercises – I found that you immediately start to hear far more belief structures in people’s everyday language. My thinking has become more flexible, and I can more fluidly create fresh perspectives for my clients and friends in everyday conversation.
I started using your Irresistible Voice CD when I started my import/export company. I was getting nowhere. I had just lost the main customer of my business... my rent bills were coming due... my credit card bills were screaming at the top of their lungs... my world was about to end... Then... Something told me to listen to the CD... take your time and place your headphones on and listen to the damn CD's! I did. I then went to my next meeting waiting to test this stuff out. I walked into his office... sat down... I was told it was only going to be for ten minutes... 'we are VERY BUSY and we only have ten minutes...' And I looked at him... this guy with piles of paper on his desk... and said 'I have always wondered what it's like to work in a place such as this... Just between you and me... how do you do it?' (I lowered my voice as on the CD) And I spent the next two hours talking! And... ...closed a $13,000 account! Jonathan... do me a favor... be careful who you sell this to... take this off the market... or at least raise the price to around $1000!!!!
I recommend Jonathan's NLP Course to anyone who is interested in dramatically improving his or her rapport and communication skills. I am very impressed with Jonathan's quick and practical approach to the questions posed by his students. I have accepted the challenge to continue practicing these skills in the future, and strive to achieve Jonathan's elegance and mastery.

Your 'Finding Your Irresistible Voice' 2-CD set [...] really gives me the tools & knowledge to IMPROVE my voice... no matter what level. Just learning about how to develop a dual-tone voice is worth the money for the whole set! I especially like your dynamic presentation of the material - your good mood really comes through.... A definite must in the library of any NLP student!
After reviewing your CDs I started realising how applicable it was in creating a new improved voice range. I realised that with very little effort people were listening attentively to me, even in crowded places and in places where machinery is constantly running. My workmates noticed it too, dropping comments as to how 'agreeable' it was to listen to my opinions, and how much more rapport was noticeable! My new girlfriend also refers to my voice as to one of my good qualities, which -- in combination with my other NLP techniques -- makes for my voice a seductive weapon of choice. I am recommending it to my friends. Thanks!

"With considerable experience giving keynotes, I thought I was very good on stage. The new skills & confidence that Jonathan has guided into my mind make my previous level of professionalism pale and insignificant by comparison. This class is the best preparation for public speaking that I have ever seen, heard of, or experienced."

Your CDs arrived safe and sound. I've listened to the first two and worked on the exercises. I'm a 55 year young, professional principal french horn player and have been working in a top German symphony orchestra for the past 30 years. I listened to the bonus telephone interview today. I am blown away. The results, applying your voice exercises to my playing (and to my students) are phenomenal. Resonance plays a huge role in performing on a brass instrument and very few poeple understand much about it. I've picked up useful and practical information, from singers and voice coaches, that I've been able to adapt to brass playing. Explaining resonance is now easy using your nose, mouth, throat etc, approach. The killer though, is using double resonance. I have free at present and don't have to perform in the orchestra (and the hall) until the beginning of Febuary. However, I am itching to hear how my changed sound is in our hall. It has to be amazing. Your material has added wonderfully valuable understandings to my comprehension of what constitutes excellent quality brass player and has beautifully simplified my means of effectively communicating it to my students. There has been a lot of belly laughter, stunned ears and broad smiles in my teaching studio this week. I'm teaching a course to amateur wind and brass players next year and am looking forward to applying your teachings to this particular situation for the benefit of the people attending. Thanks a million. This is one of the few times in my life where I've been gladly reeling and with a huge smile on my face.
In 8 days I get to know the delegates who attend my NLP Training seminars. I find out how much they have learned from previous seminars they have attended, by direct observation of the skill they demonstrate, as well as through direct inquire into their perceptions of previous training experiences. I regularly hear positive commentary about Jonathan's Linguistic Wizardry seminars. The confidence and proficiency with the skills Jonathan has taught them, is plainly evident. In addition, people I have trained have subsequently attended Jonathan's Linguistic Wizardry seminar and provided me with very positive feedback on their experiences with Jonathan.

"Right after coming back from his training in Boston, I was cooking! A few weeks after the training I did what many people said was my best poetry performance ever -- actually had people calling be up, asking me to email poems to them, and to put them on my mailing list (but I don't have a mailing list) -- and since then I've been a very useful to my friends, family and clients, helping them deal with emotional and mental obstacles, and make creative breakthroughs and achieve their goals. Jonathan sets a great example, and blasts through beliefs that are holding you back from being your best. But I'll let YOU find out how."
