May 2010
Held in Tustin
Instructed by Calvin D. Banyan, MA
National Guild of Hypnotists, Board Certified Hypnotherapist (BCH) and Certified Instructor (CI) and
Banyan Hypnosis Center for Training & Services, Inc. Instructor

"The Advanced Hypnotherapy training with 5-PATH & 7th Path Self Hypnosis is the best and ultimate in training. It offers all the tools to be in the 1% of the field. I have done several courses since my initial training since 2000 and nothing provides the clarity and insight into the depth of the subconscious and the process of hypnotherapy. For a beginner or existing Hypnotherapist, this is the best training you can receive."
Sallie Albertina
Palm Springs, California

Claudia Grosz

It was a very enlightening experience, 7th Path is an incredible program. It gives you the steps in this process, it's just incredible! I can't stress enough, if you are looking for that one course that just sets you apart from the masses, this is it! Thank you, Cal, I am proud to be a hypno 1%er!"
Steven W. Winchester,
Perryville, Missouri

"Instructor: best of the best. No-nonsense, down to earth I've ever seen. Shared all he's got, doesn't hold no info behind. Amazing. God bless him so he can pass on this info to many others. This course with the 5 and 7th Path has an answer for all presenting problems and thru the 7th Path you can help everybody find a meaning and a purpose for their lives. Complete."
Rene' Martina, MSc. N.D.
Almere, The Netherlands

"I thought this would be an interesting workshop but nothing prepared me for this.  This was at least four workshops working at the same time.  Fantastic.  Incredible amount of information.  Great structured teaching.  Cal is unlimited in his generosity, knowledge and motivation.  Thanks."
Mark Casey,
Totnes, UK

"This course provided me with the knowledge I needed to have the confidence to help people with hypnosis. As far as Cal, the instructor, I thought his teaching methods were perfect for all the information that needed to be learned. I enjoyed the metaphors, stories, and diagrams.
PS: 7th Path Rocks!"
Joey Martina,
Jupiter, Florida

"High speed unorthodox training and instructor teaches you how to be the best of the best. Has everything in it you need to know to jump from hypnowimp to hypnomaster!"
Andy Martina,
Leeuwarden, Netherlands

"Course was far more than anticipated. 7th Path was life changing for me and I'm inspired to teach 7th Path."
Rich Swiatlowski,
Port Orange, Florida

"This course was wonderful. Incredibly intense. I can't remember the last time I worked this hard. I am so excited, I can't wait to get home and start my practice. I came here with a lot of knowledge and having read a lot of hypnotherapy books and having written many scripts, but, Cal put it all together for me. He gave me a clear, simple system that incorporates my knowledge and adds to it HUGELY! He is an inspiration to me. I am especially thankful for the 7th Path Self Hypnosis training.
With an open heart, thank you!"
Laney Coulter, M. Ed.,
Portland, Oregon

"I thoroughly was inspired with the 7th Path and feel it's a calling to have been drawn to the class."
Karen Letourneau,
Turner Falls, Massachusetts

"I thought the course was excellent, although it should be longer. Think information OVERLOAD!
As for Cal....a very unique individual who I think is far more caring than he lets on. I really enjoyed his teaching style and take charge attitude. Thanks is not sufficient, but, it will have to do for now."
Steven E. Winchester,
Perryville, Missouri

"The Advanced 5-PATH and 7th Path class was everything I had hoped it would be and much more than that. If you are on the fence about the importance of taking this class in person, get off the fence and make your reservations.
I would like to thank Cal and his entire staff for providing me with the knowledge and confidence to become a better hypnotist and, through 7th Path, a better person."
Mark Hober, MA,
Hanson, Kentucky

"This course was the most amazing thing in my life that I have "EVER" done. I have learnt with the BEST tutor Hypnotist that I could ever learn with. The information was the clearest and nost profound that I could have wished for and more. Cal is strict but fair, his humour makes learning fun. He knows just the thing to do and say to make sure that you get and understand 5/7 Path. All the other staff are helpful and as thorough as Cal. Maureen is supportive, helpful and a credit to Banyan Hypnosis Centre.
Thank Δ Delta (God) I found Cal Banyan & 5-PATH® and 7th Path Self Hypnosis®!
What an amazing journey. Thank you, Cal & team.
PS: If you take yourself through this incredible journey, don't expect to sightsee, but get immersed in 5/7 Path!"
Julia Robinson,
Birmingham, UK

"This is my second time through Cal's course and it was more meaningful, because I was able to benefit from the foundational experiences of the 10-day course. I experienced 5-PATH with some hypnosis already under my belt and it will help me to make the necessary course corrections. I enjoyed 7th Path more, too, seeing the advantages of using a tool to redress misperceptions from my past and create feelings of peaceful gratitude."
Marc R. Bertone, MA, JD,
Irvine, CA

"Once again, the second time around is even better. Content is superb, the best. Even a greater appreciation than I originally experienced... I feel privileged and grateful to partake once again of the elegance, brilliance and efficacy of this system of hypnosis. It is truly evolutionary, as both an art and a science. The jewels of 5-PATH, 7th Path and the Secret Language of Feelings is unparalleled in the hypnosis world, taking hypnosis into the necessary psychological literacy it so deeply requires."
Kate Fountayne, BE,
Ashland, OR

"Lots of information and very useful techniques, always presented in a comprehensive manner. This advanced certification really turns around the way you look at your future hypnosis practice."

NGH Hypnotherapy Certification (Plus 5-PATH® & 7th Path™)

March 2010
Held in Tustin
Instructed by Calvin D. Banyan, MA
National Guild of Hypnotists, Board Certified Hypnotherapist (BCH) and Certified Instructor (CI) and
Banyan Hypnosis Center for Training & Services, Inc. Instructor

"Powerful course. I have been very grateful for the spiritual component to it and how it can be blended with other healing arts. Cal's instruction was at "times", was strict, but the abundance of information in the course was a necessity to the success of the system and had to be taught in such a short time frame. His great sense of humor made up for it."
Savanna Martinas
Laguna Beach, California

"This course is fantastic. I recommend this course to any serious potential student. Calvin Banyan is a great instructor with a lifetime of experience in this field. The staff at the Banyan Hypnosis Center is extremely friendly and helpful."
Anthony Rizk, BS., MBA.
Lebanon

"The great thing about this course is that it's 2 weeks for under $3,000. It's a lot of information, but everything that doesn't get into your brain is in the manuals provided. It's a system of hypnotherapy that you can start doing after some studying and review that you can apply to any & every problem a client may have. The instructor/owner/published psychologist plays the "bad (military-style) teacher" and ruffles a few feathers but he is a very generous and good person who wants to help people."
Anna Linx, BA.
West Hollywood, California

"Difficult to imagine what would be better. This is the quintessential learning point. So very fortunate I found this school. Thanks"
Tom Lord, MA., C.A.S.
Laguna Woods, California

"This course is for the person who is serious about learning hypnosis & having a hypnosis business."
Janet Westley, NHD, Ph.D.
Greenwood, Arkansas

"This course exceeded all of my expectations. The subject matter, 5-PATH® & 7th Path, is unique in the field of hypnotherapy, and due to its systemization, any practitioner can apply it with successful outcomes. Cal Banyan is a genuine guru and a thorough and organized instructor. Additionally, all course materials are top-shelf, adding to the courses effectiveness. Lastly, the facility was comfortable, right down to the plush chairs in the classroom. The Banyan Hypnosis Center is a world class, professional organization from top to bottom. I highly recommend this course."
Guy Buxman,
Aliso Viejo, California

"This course has wonderful introspective components. It enables you, as a 5-PATH® hypnotherapist, to release and neutralize clients' issue that are stopping them from living their dreams and helps you as an individual to address your own issues, making you aware of things that you did not even know that were there. With that insight, your reality is changed & life is easier. What a gift! Everyone needs to be exposed to this process."
Debra Lensky,
Laguna Beach, California

"The course was very rich in information, very useful information. I thought hypnosis in general should be able to treat psychosomatic illness. After this course, I am deeply convinced about that. There is so much information to give in 10 days, and I don't think that anyone else other than Cal, can push us to do that..."
Jad Wehbe, MA (Osteopath)
Beruit, Lebanon

"Course is well structured, and gives you the skill set and confidence to go out in the real world and begin building your hypnosis practice. Plenty to learn and keep you interested throughout the course. I have attended a number of other training's and this is definitely the best course for a person wanting to understand, learn and apply hypnotherapy in order to get to the top of their profession."
Paul Dixon,
Auckland, New Zealand
Online Student

"I am grateful to Cal Banyan & the crew at the Banyan Hypnosis Center. Beginning with my first phone call, I was treated professionally, & courteously, and assisted through the registration process. Also before the class I received training manuals, books, dvd's, cd's, and other support material - totally preparing me. The course was fantastic! Cal's passion and knowledge is truly holistic, which made for excellent training and preparation for being a hypnotherapist. The 5-PATH® hypnosis process is comprehensive and can be used with nearly every client! The process totally prepared me to feel excited & confident. 7th Path was profound and fulfilling. The group experience was helpful & fun, even hough I took the class online from a distance."
Mary Vilcheck,

"The course has been really intense - in every way. The structure and the way the class has been conducted, has been very professional and I have learned more in 10 days than on any other 10 days of class than ever before. Cal is a great teacher - direct and provocative. It has been a personal journey for me to meet him and I will take with me insights that only he could make me have. Thank you."

Held in Malaysia
Instructed by Calvin D. Banyan, MA
National Guild of Hypnotists, Board Certified Hypnotherapist (BCH) and Certified Instructor (CI) and
Banyan Hypnosis Center for Training & Services, Inc. Instructor

"It was the eye-opening event of my life!! I really got much more from the course than I can ever imagined. I got into it thinking that I am 'just' going to learn hypnosis and what I have gone through was mind-blowingly awesome and is definitely much much more. We are so luck and honoured to have Cal Banyan, our Instructor. What can I say, he's the MAN! The way he teaches are clear, precise, and make it simple for us or to me (at least) to understand. He really gives his heart and soul into teaching and was totally patient with us in some of the more trying times. He is truly an inspiration for me."
Islina Esa, LLB (Hons) UKM
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

"Thank you Cal! You are a great teacher and outstanding instructor. I am so happy to participate in this class and I learn much more than I expected before I join the class. 7-Path is so effective and it helps me to feel good about my past. This is amazing, I recommend to anyone who are interested to be in the hypnosis profession and would like personal development. I will do my best to use the techniques I learned to help others. Life is good, we can go for a better future!"
Kia Chua
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

"Cal Banyan is an incredible, powerful teacher. His knowledge and experience can make you feel confident in taking care of your clients. The class was fun, full of insight tips from an expert that has been doing this for a long time. This course is not just for your career but for your life transformation. Cal always insist on the therapist helping herself first before helping others. The 7th Path is an on-going self development that empowers you to help yourself and others."
Dhitinart Na Pattalung, MSc.
Bangkok, Thailand

"First 3 days was very hard, because I did not have a chance the read anything before. I am a person who needs time to understand everything and everyword, so the language is my main issue (I am not fluent in English).
The class is Super Best, worth every penny and even all the things I learned, made me see myself and understand other people, how to help them and how to deal with them. This class has made me more ready to do anything that I have hesitated to do before."
Lilly Rahmann
Deux-Montagnes, Quebec
Canada

"This course transformed my life. I came in thinking I would help people, and I will. But, most important, I helped myself! I feel like I got ME back!"
Marilyn Alexander, R.D.H. Dip. Dental Hygiene
Dubai, UAE

"This course was very, very, very... powerful! It restarted my life (like new life) with that power. In this course, I got both: hypnosis as knowledge and business in hypnosis. Another thing most useful, is I can recover and renew my life with both positive things and be more successful and powerful in the future."
Mulianta Marcelles, SE
