    Up-Close-and-Personal Coaching and Changework Workshop with Michael Perez

    2 Days. 8 People. 1 Rare Chance to Learn Excellence in Coaching and Changework as You Never Have Before.

    A Two Day Up-Close-and-Personal Coaching and Changework Workshop With Michael Perez, London, 30-31 August

    First of all, this workshop is for people who work or want to work with people to change their lives. If that's not you, thanks for reading, but stop here, this isn't for you.

    Secondly, if you want to attend a workshop for self-help, this isn't about that. If that's you, again, thanks for reading, but this isn't for you.

    Still reading? Then good, it might be you I'm looking for!

    If you work with people as a changeworker, therapist or coach, I'm guessing that you want to get better at what you do, right? You want to help them to live the great lives they deserve and you want to help them to do that with accomplished grace, elegance and ease.

    And if you went down the typical training path available to most NLP changeworkers, you've only had limited experiences watching someone do what you want to do there live in front of you.

    And you probably saw them work with delegates, fellow students and NLPers who had been sitting in the same training as you were, 'cooking' in trances for a few days after having spent hundreds or thousands of quid to be there and who knew how they were supposed to react. Definitely not the kind of client that's likely to ring you up or come through your door very often, if ever.

    And when you did get a chance to practice, it was usually with fellow students and/or only in a few specialized circumstances.

    And your clients in the real world are not those people.

    So, to check of that third box, if you're someone that wants more in a real-client live demonstration for you to model, if you're someone who wants to get specific, high-quality, one-to-one feedback from you doing an actual interaction with a real live non-NLPer client...

    If that's you, then it's you I'm looking for.

    I'm going to hold a small weekend workshop for no more than 8 attendees. I'll talk to all applicants personally before accepting any application.

    Then, you I and a handful of others will get together for a weekend of two intensive, full day-long sessions and...

    * Each Morning, I'll teach you some of the most important distinctions I've made over my decades of experience as a changeworker, distinctions you can use to make all of your work more elegant and more powerful.
    * At Midday, I'll demonstrate what I do for you by working in front of you with a live client in a real changework session. I'll then review what I did, explain why I did what I did and answer all of your questions about my work.
    * In the Late Afternoon-Early Evening, you'll get supervised practice with a live client followed by feedback, where I'll bring in some real people for (approximately) 45 minute coaching sessions with you as the practitioner, where I'll watch your work and give you clear, high-quality feedback so that you can become even better and better!

    I was thinking back to the days when Milton Erickson would welcome changeworkers from around the world into intimate workshops where he would share what he had learned. And I thought to myself...

    'If only I could have been in a magical situation like that! How much faster would I have learned the things I did? How many mistakes could I have avoided? How much better would my life be today?'

    And it occurred to me that after everything that I've gone through to learn what I've learned, since I can't go back in time and give this magic to me then, why wouldn't I reach out and give you the opportunity for that kind of magic, the magic to transform what you do, right now?

    And who am I, someone might be asking? I assume might have seen some of the things I’ve written here over the years. If not, click on my user name at the top of this post and you can see what I’ve written. I’ve been operating and developing in the fields of NLP and Hypnosis for over 20 years now. One well known NLP trainer said of me ‘Michael knows everything about NLP that’s worth knowing’. I disagree, I know some bits that aren’t worth knowing as well...

    I’ve been a coach, changeworker and trainer for abut as long as I’ve been doing NLP. And I’ve got a reputation as being a troubleshooter. People who can’t be hypnotized? Send them to me. People who have seen a dozen therapists and NLPers with no results? Send them to me. I’m known as someone who gets results when others can’t.

    And that’s who I am in the context of helping you to be who you are becoming. The coach, the changeworker, the therapist, the hypnotist, the NLPer you can and who you are determined to be. If that’s you, then it’s you I’m looking for.

    This course is not open enrolment. Since you’ll be working with a live client, I’m going to need to talk to you first and make sure you’ve got an appropriate skillset and attitude to do that. And since, if this workshop is for you, you’ve got similar values about the people you work with, I expect you wouldn’t expect anything less.

    I'm only offering this event to NLP Connections members. If your application is accepted, the costs are £395 per person, a tremendous value for this kind of experience, but a rare bargain for those of you lucky enough to get in.

    Compare that to the £600-800 you might pay to be a face in the crowd at a workshop of this calibre *and* you get to see and to do real changework with real people from other walks of life... And how much more valuable will your skills be worth? How much will that confidence be worth to you? Well, I think you get the picture.

    And the only way to book is to Click Here Now to Send Me a Message or ring me now on 075 2866 4565. We'll arrange a conversation and if you're one of the first 8 successful applicants, you'll be there in that very special group on the day.

    One last thing. If this event is a success, I might do another one. However, I'm making no promises beyond this one. So if this sounds like the opportunity of a lifetime to you, it just might be. No marketing BS, just the way it is.

    So, if you're ready to take the next step on your journey and make a real leap ahead towards being the best you can possibly be at doing this magic that we do, I hope to talk with you today!

    Be Well,

    Michael Perez

    If this course turns out to be anything like spending 5 minutes around you Michael then these people are in for a real treat.

    I'm already excited about hearing some amazing stories of what happens at this event.

    Working with live clients is one of those things that almost always seems to be missing from a course like this yet some could say that it's THE most important aspect of learning how this stuff really works, in the real world.

    Anyway, enough chatter from me. I'm looking forward to some fantastic reviews and my tenner in the mail for saying nice things. :-)

    How does that old phrase go... something about a "rear and unpressure-dented opera tune-ditty"?

    Anyhow, knowing Michael, it's set to be absolutely funtastic, or puntastic, or... (okay, okay, I'll get my coat.)

    Hi Violeta,

    This might not be the right event for you yet. And it's less about qualifications and more about what you can know and, even more importantly, can do, so that the people who come in will receive skilled interventions and so that everyone in the workshop can start from a mutual set of understandings.

    So, I hope that when you have had the chance to learn and to do some of these things, then you'll have an opportunity like this one!

    Be Well,

    Michael Perez

    Hi All,

    4 seats out of 8 are booked and 3 more on the verge of being booked, so if this is something you'd like to do, I suggest taking action now!

    One other thing. A couple of people have asked me for references. Aside from the people who've already posted in this thread, here are a couple from people here on the forum, so you can even ask them follow-up questions if you like.

    On TRANCEcendental Journeys:
    What could possibly be better than spending the better part of two days trancing with a master of hypnosis? Well, just possibly increased ease relaxing and sleeping, amazingly enhanced creativity, or even waking up every morning for weeks afterward with an ever-deepening sense of the beauty and adventure of life.

    Michael Perez astonishes me with his understanding of minds and how to encourage them to improve. He’s certainly helped me improve mine.

    –Bridget McKenna
    Author, NLPer and Hypnotherapist
    Michael is a wealth of knowledge, information and insight. He has the ability to teach in a way that allows you to learn organically, ideas spring up into your mind, inspiration finds itself all around and the impossible becomes possible.

    He not only works creatively and originally; his ideas turn into interventions and conversations that actually make a difference to people's lives.

    The opportunity to learn through his approach and develop your own techniques from this is an opportunity to welcome with open arms.

    -Katie Abbott
    Cognative Hypnotherapist and contributor to the Guardian and the Observer on the subject of Hypnosis
    If anyone needs more information, ring me on 075 2866 4565 and I'll gladly answer your questions or book your place.

    Be Well,

    Michael Perez

    Here's another one.

    Having had the rare opportunity to observe Michael working with clients, I decided as soon as I read the description that this will be an amazingly positive experience... and if you're thinking about it then I'm going to warn you that you need to pay really close attention.

    REALLY close attention, because unless you already know, you could easily miss lots of what he's doing... unless he's prepared to explain afterwards what he did.

    If he explains what he does, as he's about to do, before he does it, then this is indeed an opportunity not to be missed.

    Michael in action is skilled, eloquent, very effective, and extremely subtle.

    Just being there while he works with clients will, by itself be an experience that could transform your work.

    Having him teach the distinctions he uses to choose his approach, and then being there while he constructs an intervention in real time will probably leave you able to do things you couldn't previously imagine.

    If he's going to not only explain that intervention afterwards, but also give you feedback on your work with real clients, I defy you to improve anything less than beyond your expectations... He really is that good at getting to the good stuff.

    I've experienced some of that before, not all of it though so if I could be there I'd have had that place you're thinking about before you could get to the phone!

    I have to be somewhere else that weekend, so you have a chance, and if you make good decisions, you'll take it!

    Andy

    Hi Andy,

    Thanks for that and I expect that will be most useful feedback for people making their decisions.

    Be Well,

    3 Workshop Places Now Available!
    Hi,

    I want to take this opportunity both to let you know of a last minute change and to warn you about something else, something else that I think is even more important, a serious flaw I've uncovered because of my original message about this workshop!

    My Changework and Coaching Workshop is This Weekend (30 and 31 August) and, due to last-minute cancellations (unavoidable circumstances), I have, at this moment, 3 seats suddenly available. To grab one of these last few seats now, before they vanish, message me now or ring me on 075 2866 4565 and avoid disappointment!

    And the flaw?

    Well, when I originally advertised this event, I really wanted to make it clear that this workshop was designed for people like you, who might have taken some NLP training and would like to get real experience helping people in coaching or in therapeutic situations.

    This workshop was designed for you if you want to see someone use NLP in doing real change work with real everyday people and not just a self-selected group who attend NLP seminars, sit in trance for several days and have both social pressure as well as an internal expectation of how they're supposed to react to the NLP applications they're experiencing.

    So this workshop was created for people who are intensely curious about and how people work and how they can live more wonderful lives so effortlessly and so easily and how you can get an experience of that in a protected and safe environment.

    It was created for you to get the chance to get in real practice wit real people as well, in a safe and protected environment so that you can gain real confidence and skill based on real-world experiences.

    And, trust me, there's a difference between feeling confident because you spin the feeling up and having the unshakable confidence you build by doing.

    So a my original announcement this went out, I got some calls and messages from people expressing how much they wanted to attend something just like this but that they needed to get more practice first, before they could do anything like this and certainly before they could ever work with clients.

    It was then that I realized that there was a fundamental problem, that serious flaw I mentioned earlier, evident in some of the reactions my initial announcement was generating. And the response it generated revealed that some people were in an inescapable loop and, unless they got out of it, they'd never be able to do changework or coaching... Have you spotted it yet, I wonder?

    If, in order to practice, you need to practice first, you'll never be able to practice because you'll always need to practice first!

    So, yes, because I'll be giving you specific, high-quality feedback on doing gentle and straightforward coaching with live subjects, it is important that you have an NLP Practitioner training (or equivalent) under your belt before doing a workshop like this to make sure you learn the most possible and provide the results of that due diligence for both you and your client.

    And, at the same time, you don't have to be an expert at this, nor do you ever have to have worked with a client before. Expertise is what comes *after* work like this, not before...

    This is about a safe and protected environment for you do that in, and to learn at an greatly accelerated rate and to explore new ways of being excellent at this, with myself there there to guide you, provide you with valuable feedback, and help you step by step through the process.

    And you won't be alone or out of place, no matter what your experience level was when you walk through the door.

    There will be people there who working with clients for the first time.

    There will be people who have been working with clients for years now.

    And the rest of those attending, like you, will be in the spectrum in-between, a lovely range of experiences!

    Everyone who attends will have something to offer and everyone will learn things just right for them!

    When you're done, you'll walk away with that experience and those learnings forever yours and empowering you every time you help anyone help themselves in the future

    Now, if you've been wanting to have that experience and to learn about working with real people, or even if you just want to watch someone was a considerable reputation and a whole lot of experience do what they do, this is your chance!

    So, if you want one of these last few seats before they're gone again, message me now or ring me on 075 2866 4565.

    What are you waiting for? Get started on that new life you entered into with that first training and take the next step right now!

    I expect, as you look back on this weekend a few months from now, and realize just how much things have changed for the better and how much more confident and comfortable you can be now in working with others... well, I expect that looking back on this weekend now, you'll be glad you made the right choice!

    Be Well,

    Michael Perez

    Re: Up-Close-and-Personal Coaching and Changework Workshop with Michael Perez

    Thanks Michael for an interesting and challenging weekend. It was great to meet some people again and some for the first time. To have immediate feedback on a client session was fantastic and really made me think about how I do what I do and how much of it is out of conscious awareness, both useful and not so useful. At least my ego wasn’t deflated as there was much more useful stuff going on.
    For those of you not there the premise was that we would have clients who wanted some life coaching. This quickly moved into change work, which was both challenging and rewarding. I haven’t yet completely processed all the learning from the two days but am confident that I only recognise a part of what I will realise in the coming weeks. As well as getting new stuff (which is the best description you will get today) Michael has allowed me to find new ways to look at old learning and make it useful in different contexts. Today I have instilled a propulsion system in three different people for different desired outcomes and they and I have had WOW!! moments at the elegance and power of the process.
    Thanks again Michael.
    And to everyone else, when Michael finds the time to put this event on again, take the opportunity to ... no actually … don’t because then you would be as fortunate as me.

    Best wishes
    John
