Steve Bayner

From a magician as a child performing for the neighborhood, to a garage band in junior high school, an actor in the making in college and even a dance instructor, Steve Bayner found his niche and passion as a stage hypnotist.  Steve says, "Hypnotizing people is something I love.  Each show is as different as each personality is different.  Every show is a challenge with new people and new experiences."  The combination of wit, stage presence, over four and a half hours of solid material to draw from, and a very charismatic stage personality are a few other reasons for the shows success.  Steve's crowds are standing room only everywhere he goes.  He always leaves them laughing and wanting more.  The Steve Bayner Hypnotist Show was once recognized as the best performing hypnotist show in America by the President of the Washington Hypnosis Society. 

At the age of twenty, Steve attended college and began studying hypnotism and found it  fascinating.  Combining his early entertainment experience, and his knowledge of hypnosis, at the age of twenty-two, The Steve Bayner Hypnotist Show was born.  Today, over a decade later, The Steve Bayner Hypnotist Show is one of the most sought after successful shows of its kind.  Steve has performed before millions of people each year at fairs, corporate events, conventions, colleges, casinos, and innumerable specialty events.  Steve has worked with such stars as Kevin Bacon, David Haselhoff, Debbie Dunning (The Tool Time Girl), Three Dog Night, Juice Newton, Paul Revere and the Raiders, E.L.O. and the Little River Band to name a few.  His show has been performed all over the United States as well as abroad.  It has been featured on television, radio, in newspapers and magazines, and on his own cable television show. 

Steve Bayner continues to strive to maintain excellence and growth in each show for himself and his clients.  Steve will tell you that one of the most difficult things to deal with is his concentration level.  It has to be 100%, before and after each show.  He begins his show with a short monologue mixed with comedy molding the material to fit the occasion.  A short explanation dispels myths and creates a positive image for hypnosis.  People are fascinated watching the volunteers participate and love to see the different reactions from each person on stage.  Many return to watch several shows and are never disappointed because each show is different, calling on the hidden talents within each audience.

It is common for people to comment that Steve's show is the funniest show they have ever seen.  It appeals to both young and old.  Everyone walks away from this show feeling totally entertained.  Steve says, "After performing for many years now, I still enjoy what I'm doing and I believe that my show is the best of its kind."
