NLP Practitioner
This course can enable you to change your personal and professional life and make it more the way you would like it to be. As it has for hundreds of others.

Skills for making the changes you want.

Would you like to know how to get better results and improve your quality of life for the rest of your life?


This NLP Practitioner training has been refined by John Seymour over 25 years to do just that.  Our feedback shows that it does for the vast majority of students. How?

Every month you will spend two intensive and enjoyable days in Bristol, UK,  learning the most generative skills and techniques that NLP has to offer.  You will learn the core practices that will enable you to become one of the most skilled practitioners of NLP, including reflective journaling and regular practice group meetings, from a teacher who attracts highly motivated students. The NLP course tutors provide individual attention in a supportive environment. Month on month the developmental changes add up and become more natural and ingrained, leading, for most people, to quite dramatic benefits by the end of the course.

The full 18 day Practitioner is divided up into three 6 day Diplomas. The Introduction Seminar forms the first part of Diploma One. The full syllabus is outlined below. Many consider it to be the most comprehensive in the UK.

What difference will becoming a Practitioner of NLP make in your life?

Here is what some our previous students say:

This programme starts fascinating, becomes hard learning, evolves to light bulb moments, then explodes to WOW! I’d do it all again.
Andrew Whibley - Management Trainer, Transport for London

…the most practical course on any subject I have attended. It encouraged me to look at opportunities to make changes in both my personal and work life. Thank you.
Lorraine Green - People Solutions Consultant

I would recommend John Seymour for NLP training to anybody who wishes to have time to apply the skills learned to themselves and others. If you are curious about NLP but wish to avoid the show business hype or are worried that it is all about sales hype and poor ethical behaviour, I can only say that I haven’t seen ANY of that with John’s courses.
David Gulley - Business Change, MOD

I find the foundational skills of questioning, structuring and supporting clients through their issues invaluable for my day-to-day consulting work.
Laura Watkins – Consultant

Investing time in the NLP Course… has been one of the best investments I have ever done or am ever likely to do.

One of the main benefits of the course was having fun

I have been able to decide for the first time what’s really important to me
Genevieve Wood

I can now start to get the specifics about exactly in what way I’m going to use what I contribute to the world outside of me.
Lucinda Gray

I am… more positive, more confident, more flexible, more tolerant and understanding and a better communicator overall – an excellent outcome.
John Skevington

… doors have opened. Not doors that I expected, but changes in and around me have created opportunities and possibilities I would not have considered, it feels very positive and right for me
Jane Fry

I have taken the first step towards mastery of these NLP skills; skills which I know will be invaluable in my business and personal life. I look forward to being able to run with them.
