About Paul Ramsay

I'm the founder of Best Hypnosis Training. I've been working as a hypnotist full-time since 2004. Before that I was a high school English teacher and a student affairs professional at a state university. My background in education, coupled with two decades of experience working as a hypnotist, gives me a unique dovetailing of skill sets.

What I Learned from Co-Founding a Professional Association for Stage Hypnotists

They imagine that a better sales page, a burgeoning social media following, or the aid of a savvy agent might be the key to unlocking a flood of bookings. However, this perspective overlooks […]

Are You a Professional or a Hobbyist? The Differences are Important.

Hypnotism is a Skill. Entertainment Hypnotism is an Art.

Hypnotism is not a mystical power or ability; it's a skill that anyone can learn. As a skill, it is not particularly complicated and can be taught relatively quickly. Here's the catch: knowing what to do with people once you have them hypnotized is a considerably more complex issue, and requires much more learning and […]
