VERBAL MATCHING
Explore how matching other people's vocal/verbal qualities can help you to make them feel more comfortable (and how not doing this can alienate people unintentionally)! Find out how to use this process as a way of testing for responsiveness to your influence!

INCREASING & DECREASING RAPPORT!
It's not only useful to know how to increase & create rapport, to help you get more of what you want from other people; it's also useful to know ways of breaking rapport in ways that don't hurt your friendships & relationships.

     This two DVD set by Jonathan Altfeld is a great introduction to the many facets of building rapport. Jonathan is extremely fluid in his presentation of this subject perfectly pacing the assembled delegates with his relaxed and fun approach to the material. His explanations of rhythm, mismatching, non verbal communication and frames of learning are excellent and its clear from watching that Jonathan has genuine enthusiasm in presenting seminars and is fully aware of how each of the delegates is responding both consciously and unconsciously as well as the dynamics of the group as a whole.

     As someone who avidly collects all kinds of NLP and hypnosis materials, (in CD, video and DVD formats), what I really liked about this DVD set is that Jonathan breaks the subject down into logical sections, which makes it extremely engaging and memorable for the viewer.

     His use of metaphors demonstrates someone who is in my opinion a natural presenter and I consider this DVD set invaluable and great value for money for anyone training in NLP, hypnosis or simply interested in improving their communication skills! In fact, I am sufficiently impressed by the quality of this set that I am going to seek out the other DVDs in Jonathan's "Skill-Builders Series"!

     When Jonathan announced he was releasing an updated NLP skills builder set on DVD I jumped at the chance to purchase it. Jonathan has a world-wide reputation as a NLP trainer and I was excited about the opportunity to experience his work.

     Having just finished watching the third DVD of the set I can say that it has been a fantastic investment of my time and money. Each DVD is well structured, the quality is outstanding, the exercises are well presented and the material is first class. They undoubtedly stand alone on their own merits and, when combined, offer an extremely powerful learning experience.

     Building Hypnotic Rapport is great fun as you can do the drills with a partner and unpack them alongside the students on the DVD; Sharpening Your Influence was an excellent way to learn some extremely powerful language patterns; and, as a Coach, Unbridled Motivation was my personal favourite as it offers a wealth of techniques to use with my clients, I just love “propulsion systems”!

     If you, like me, are not yet able to train with Jonathan personally these DVD’s are an excellent alternative, with the additional benefit of being able to review them again and again.

     You will be delighted with this DVD set, there are gems in every one for everyone…

     Jonathan's skill builders DVDs are incredible. Learn about building hypnotic rapport by pacing and leading others breathing patterns. I synchronized my breathing with several attractive women at coffee shops and malls in the last month. Each turned their bodies toward me while I sat across a room. They gazed at me for several seconds. I felt that I connected with them on an unconscious level. I later spoke with them and were amazed at their friendliness to a complete stranger.
