This multiple shift is by Ed Marlo. It operates in two phases where in the first phase you bring the cards together that were inserted in different positions in the deck. And in the second phase, you bring these cards to the top.

Then he gets into the routines--and what routines they are! Killer routines that will slaughter your audience! Stuff that seems absolutely impossible...

A tale of modern black art. A thrilling story of love and mysticism.

In the Victorian age, spiritism and mysticism were big business. Therefore it is no surprise that a muscle reader like Stuart Cumberland tried to take advantage of it and wrote stories based on his experience as a 'thought reader'.

This manuscript features six routines from Paul Voodini, all utilizing a marked deck. As well as fully explaining the routines, Paul also discusses many subtleties that allow the performer to use a marked deck with confidence and the 'tricks of the trade' that mean the spectators never suspect for a moment that there is anything 'funny' about the cards.

The routines included are:

The Keeper of Secrets. The performer is able to correctly divine a chosen card despite the spectator desperately trying to keep its identity a secret.

Thought Transfer. Performer and spectator work together...

[Please note that this is a four part course. If your intention is to become a stage hypnotist we strongly discourage you from only getting one or two parts. You will not get the full breadth and depth of information.]

This fourth part, a download DVD, shows again an entire hypnotism show (a different one than the one shown in Part 3) which takes place in a high school. There is a running commentary and interview in the background which instructs the viewer while the show is ongoing. This commentary is very valuable information which will assist the aspiring hypnosis student to gain profiency very quickly. We do not advise watching this video unless part three is viewed first to accustom the viewer to the show sequence. Otherwise it will be hard to follow the show and the commentary at the same time....

This third part, a download DVD, shows an entire hypnotism show from begin to end. It is an outdoor fair show that starts quite slow - almost boring. There is lots of distracting noise. Still Mark Lewis spins his hypnotic web and leads the audience to a hypnotic experience many have never seen before.

This video should be watched for entertainment only since there is no instruction of any kind depicted on it. The purpose of this recording is to amplify the information on the Audio recording and on Part 2. Another very important purpose, however, is for the viewer to understand the sequence...

This second part, a download DVD, is a very thorough overview of waking suggestion tests which are performed at the beginning of the show. These all occur before the actual hypnotic induction and are excellent entertainment in themselves even though nobody is actually hypnotised just yet. These tests also have the valuable purpose of conditioning people to react to suggestions and help in selecting the best possible subjects.

This recording is a mix of a taped seminar and recordings of actual hypnotism shows performed by Mark Lewis....

This first part is a 90 minute audio lesson where Mark Lewis outlines the structure and methods of a stage hypnotism show. You could almost learn a hypnosis show from this recording alone. It covers how to start, how to practice hypnosis, how to rehearse, how to select the best subjects, waking suggestion tests, how to induce hypnosis and a large selection of routines you can use....

We truly believe this is the best hypnosis training in the industry. First produced in 1998 it is the original course that started off the plethora of hypnosis training that is prevalent nowadays and it is still the best information available.

Mark Lewis is a very experienced professional stage hypnotist who has performed his stunning show all over the world in Germany, Holland, UK, Ireland, Mexico, Canada and the United States. His information is the best in the business.

The course was first produced in VHS and audiocassette tapes, then later on DVD and CD format. And now for the first...
