Book Jason Cyrus through The Keynote Curators

Biography

Born in the small coal mining village of Minto, NB, and son of country music legend Joey Knight, Jason Cyrus is renowned for his big heart, quick wit, great sense of humor, family values, and charismatic personality.

A true Canadian at heart, Jason’s love for hockey matched his talent and skill. During his hockey career, he played on AAA teams, earning numerous awards, including Most Valuable Player. His dedication led to an invitation to try out for a Junior A hockey team in Ontario, where he secured a position, opening doors to further opportunities.

Jason Cyrus discovered his passion for magic, theatre, and hypnosis at a young age, performing with his school drama club in Minto, NB. He officially made his stage hypnosis debut on October 19th, 2007, with a LIVE show in Sussex, NB. Since then, he has risen to prominence as one of Canada’s top entertainers. Dubbed “Canada’s Stage Hypnosis King” by Niagara Falls, Jason quickly became a sensation, captivating audiences in major theatres and casinos nationwide. His world-class performances, packed with laughter and excitement, consistently attract sold-out crowds, making his shows some of the most sought-after events. Beyond public performances, major corporations also book Jason as headline entertainment for their events.

In 2016, Jason developed the powerful keynote Achieve the Unthinkable, and in 2024, he launched the highly anticipated Unlocking Business Brilliance, designed specifically for corporations. His keynotes teach three simple, powerful, and transferable techniques to internalize personal and professional goals into the unconscious mind, while also demonstrating how to apply scientific principles in both business and personal life through the power of hypnosis, focus, and visualization. Combining world-class entertainment with a transformative message, Jason has become one of the busiest speakers in Canada, captivating corporate audiences nationwide. Dr. David Scott, Associate Professor in the Faculty of Kinesiology and sports psychologist for the Montreal Canadiens, calls Jason’s message “life-changing” and notes that his presentations leave audiences “spellbound.”

Beyond his stage shows and keynotes, Jason is recognized as one of the top hypnotherapists globally, working with clients virtually and at Evolve Health Solutions in Moncton, NB. He is a certified clinical hypnotherapist (C.H) through the International Hypnosis Association and the National Guild of Hypnotists, and is certified with the Mike Mandel Hypnosis Academy in Neo-Ericksonian Hypnosis. Additionally, he is a Naturopath (N.C) certified by The Academy of Naturopaths and Naturotherapists of Canada and a member of the Alliance of Professional Naturopaths and Naturotherapists.

In 2022, Jason became a Neuro Change Practitioner (NCP) through the Neuro Change Institute in Australia, studying under PhD-level teachers from top universities such as Harvard Medical School, The University of Queensland, and Yale University. His studies covered beliefs, mindset, emotional intelligence, the subconscious/unconscious mind, and neuroplasticity.

With a love for sports, Jason trained with Brian Cain, a leading authority on Mental Performance Mastery, to become a certified Mental Performance Coach.

Jason helps his clients reach their true potential and enhance their lives, specializing in working with athletes. His successful shows and speaking engagements have expanded his clientele, drawing people from afar for private consultations. While Jason enjoys performing and speaking to large audiences, he finds one-on-one work with clients equally, if not more, rewarding.

In 2024, Jason released two books: Mental Mirrors: Reflecting on Mastering Your Mind and Unlocking Business Brilliance. Mental Mirrors provides a comprehensive guide to mastering mindset with practical tools and techniques to boost confidence, enhance motivation, and overcome self-limiting beliefs. The book emphasizes consistent action and positive thinking, empowering readers to break through barriers, achieve goals, and create a life beyond limits.

Unlocking Business Brilliance is an in-depth exploration of Jason’s acclaimed keynote, offering strategies to align mindset with business objectives for exceptional results. Through engaging stories, practical exercises, and proven methods, Jason shows professionals how to unlock hidden potential, drive innovation, build resilience, and foster high-performance cultures. Perfect for entrepreneurs, executives, and teams, Unlocking Business Brilliance serves as a blueprint for achieving breakthrough success in today’s competitive business world.

In his personal time, Jason enjoys playing hockey, weightlifting, and golf. His true dedication lies with his wife, Catherine, and daughter, Chloe, cherishing the time spent with them.
