March 11, 2014Great hypnotist show
Julius was a hypnotist at my daughter's sweet 16 birthday party. She and her friends had a great time and he made it a very memorable event. They are still talking and laughing about it at school. She said he was exactly what she had hoped for in a hypnotist.

About
"Julius" Gyula Kovacs, B. A. Psychology & Certified Hypnotist has not only entertained audiences in two continents but conducted individual and group Stress Management, Smoking Cessation, and Self-Hypnosis seminars in the past with great success.
From Fire walking to Self-Hypnosis, he experienced the power of the mind personally before he became Stage Hypnotist and Hypnosis Instructor for the National Guild of Hypnotists. Besides the guaranteed entertainment value at every event, Kovacs always makes sure to tell volunteers about the benefits of being hypnotized. Those who are hypnotized would be able to tackle personal challenges easier in the future as they have learned self-hypnosis skills.

Testimonials
"We hired Julius Kovacs, Comedy Hypnotist, for our Project Graduation and it was the perfect ending to the evening. By 2am, the kids were exhausted and were more than happy to sit back, relax, and be entertained. Entertained they were! Before long, Julius had them in fits of laughter as they watched their “sleeping” classmates perform absolutely hilarious acts. Before they knew it, an hour and a half had flown by and it was time to board the bus for home. We would recommend Comedy Hypnotist, Julius Kovacs, for any event."
– Gorham High School
"We recently hosted Project Graduation for our 2012 graduates in Barbers Hill. What a great night we all had!! One of the highlights was the hypnotist show by Julius. The students and parents alike were settled in and mesmerized!! Working with Julius during the planning of our event was wonderful, he is a true professional. Any question or concern was handled with the utmost care. I would highly recommend using Julius to add a great feature to your next event!!"
