Like most teenage guys, Steve Jabba become very interested in members of the opposite sex during his late teens, but, like many guys who get into pick-up, he was “pretty damn ugly”, in his own words, and had “bad skin, gappy teeth and big ears”. This gave him self-esteem and confidence issues, although he started to notice a change when he had his teeth filled in and sought advice on his skin. By the age of 19, he had finally lost his virginity. After his first sexual experience, he began to have moderate success with women and even garnered himself a reputation as a bit of a ladies man on his university campus. He discovered that he “had a natural talent for this stuff”, but that it was “masked by latent anxiety and depression issues”.

Steve developed his love of chasing women through pure “trial and error”, and was very determined to succeed in this field. The main attribute he developed through these years were escalation, dominance and how to seal the deal. Again, like most guys, Steve discovered ‘The Game’ by Neil Strauss. This helped him to realize that there was a whole world of pick-up that he had not yet discovered – cold approach pick-up during the daytime. Steve had been getting decent results in the the nightclubs and through what he calls, “warm approaching”, where he would “wait for girls that gave me a come on”.

In early 2006, Steve became more active in the pick-up world and became a prominent name in the LSS (London Seduction Society), although he was turned off by a couple of things: Firstly, he felt there were a lot of “maladjusted” people in the seduction community, many of whom were certainly not “role models with women”. Secondly, he took a strong dislike to all the of “fakery, gimmickery and nonsense” that was being taught at the time. Steve felt that all he needed to achieve success was to be funny and charming, which he often was quite naturally when in a “good mood”.

Soon after he began cold approaching, Steve Jabba became “very successful with women”, and did so quite quickly, as he already had the know-how and ability to close. Despite these successes, Steve still suffered from low-level anxiety and depression, which – situation dependent, would occasionally get worse. In late 2006, Steve met Richard La Ruina (aka Gambler). Steve and Richard became good friends, especially after going travelling around Europe together for 40 days. After learning and being impressed with Steve’s skills, Richard offered Steve a position with his upstart company, PUA Training. Due to his lingering anxiety and depression issues, Steve declined a position working for Richard’s company. Despite this, Richard would talk about Steve’s abilities in many of his seminars and videos, which helped to increase Steve’s profile as a prolific seducer of women. Richard describes Steve as, “the best guy that I have ever seen gaming”, and that, “he did some things… [on their Euro trip] where I was watching him and I couldn’t believe it… I was standing there shaking”.

Through his work in the seduction community, and with hard work and attention, by 2010, Steve had gotten a grip on his depression and anxiety issues – “I was pretty much in control of it at all times. Much happier, healthier, higher self-esteem and confidence”. Steve now considers himself to be at his absolute peak after 8 years in the game, and sees himself as “the pick up worlds best kept secret [sic]”. Steve Jabba now runs boot-camps under his ‘Authentic PUA’ moniker, and also posts regular articles and videos on his website and YouTube.

Tom’s rise to seduction-notoriety has been meteoric. He started off with little to no experience with girls or dating during his high school years. Riddled with chronic acne, a reversed bite and a ‘Mr. Nice guy’ personality, he was a prime target for bullying. As a result of his high school experiences, Tom Torero became a social hermit, who focused his attention on studying and revising, with the aim of enrolling at Britain’s most prestigious university – Oxford, where he would study Biology under the tutelage of renowned Evolutionary Biologist, Professor Richard Dawkins, author of The Selfish Gene, The God Delusion and The Blind Watchmaker.

Once at Oxford, Tom’s social situation remained largely the same; “Rather than the usual right-of-passage three years of socials, drinking, sex and friendships that my school friends were experiencing at university, I further buried my head in the sand like an introverted ostrich”, writes Tom in his autobiographical book, ‘Daygame’. This isolation, coupled with the pressures of studying at Oxford resulted in Tom suffering regular panic attacks, and he was later diagnosed with clinical depression by his doctor. As he himself concedes, “Girls were the last thing on my mind”.

After losing his virginity in his early 20’s and finishing university, Tom became a primary school teacher, and around the same time in 2005, he discovered Neil Strauss’ book The Game. The basic psychology and routines documented in the book, as well as Tom’s desire to improve his skills with women made the book appeal greatly to his sensibilities. He started doing indirect game – routines, scripts and magic tricks as a way of interacting with women. As Tom Torero himself puts it, “the crappy magic tricks and rehearsed stories gave me some structured material. It was all very clunky and contrived, but at least it was something”. He continued to enjoy sporadic success using indirect techniques in bars and other public places – usually during the daytime.

After a brief absence from the Game, Tom discovered videos online of a young Australian pick-up artist doing indirect approaches during the day. He enjoyed these videos, particularly as he had “never been naturally at home in bars and clubs and felt an affinity for the guy’s conversational approach and relaxed style”. From then on, Tom dedicated himself to hitting the streets of London with his routines, scripted lines and openers. Often he would ask girls for directions to a cafe, or if they had a tube map (London underground map) he could borrow as his an opener.

After enjoying decent success with his indirect style of game, Tom discovered Yad‘s famous kiss-close video. From then on, he decided to switch permanently to direct daygame. Later on he would meet Andy Yosha and become an executive coach for Daygame.com. Demonstrating his progress, Tom released his paper-back book, ‘Daygame’ in the autumn of 2012, where he would write about his adventures with women, including 100 lay reports.

Tom Torero’s style of daygame is relaxed, cheeky, direct and conversational, and he regularly gives updates on his latest adventures around the globe.

Originally from Switzerland, Julien’s major passion prior to pick-up had been music, and he had harbored dreams of living an artistic and unconventional lifestyle. Blanc quit a prestigious European business school in his second year in order to make the move to the Los Angeles, California, where he was taken under Cook’s wing. It was at this point that Blanc was introduced to the tope end clubs in the Hollywood scene by Cook, despite his insistence that Julien had “no idea what he was doing”, an opinion which rapidly changed.

Julien started out as many others do: from humble, ‘newbie’ beginnings. “When I started, I had so much approach anxiety that I could not approach on my own” he explains in one of his FreeTour videos. Julien quickly overcame these difficulties however, and is now well known for his manipulative and intense style of game, his tremendous work ethic and his prolific creation of video and blog content. Owen Cook claims that Julien Blanc’s results are “the best I’ve seen with my own eyes” and that Julien’s understanding of the game is “on par with me… if not possibly better”. Julien is the perfect example of transition from crippling approach anxiety to consistently dating, in Cook’s words; “legit nines and tens”.

Julien Blanc developed his skill-set by going out with Cook for four to seven nights a week for two years. In his early days, he was too “passive” and “unfocused” in his life, however under Cook’s guidance, Julien would fearlessly approach the hardest sets possible in the clubs. He went to extraordinary lengths to gain entry to the hottest clubs, such as posing as a club promoter in order to trick bouncers into letting him in. Julien learnt a lot about pick-up through RSD’s older products, but it wasn’t until he became infected by Cook’s notorious work ethic and high standards that he really became an elite player in the game. Even advanced level players stand to benefit greatly from Julien’s coaching, such is his level of mastery, understanding of subtleties, and ability to recognize what is happening in any given moment during an interaction.

When she was 23 she met Adam Lyons in a nightclub in London and their “relationship” started when Adam invited her to help during some of his classes. As she would personally admit with a laugh, that was not love at first sight. In 2009 they already got married. Shortly after, in 2010, her career was launched by the new co- founded business, Attraction Explained. Her task was to provide the needed female perspective during the organized workshops, bootcamps and trainings. Mostly, her job is to teach the men the art of seduction and help them work on their self-confidence. Amanda Lyons participates in the creation of DVDs for their company on qualification, attraction, comfort, sexual escalation. Today, she works side by side with her husband as a dating expert, enjoying the satisfaction to travel around the world.

Today, AFC Adam Lyons is affiliated with the “PUA Training” company and bravely continues to build his own personal reputation. Even though he tried to keep a low profile, rumors are that in 2007 he picked up Shabnam, a Big Brother celebrity, the same night she left the house. In 2009 he got married to Amanda Torres (now Lyons), after 2 years of dating. As a former student of Mystery’s, he uses a lot of his concepts, but pushes them to extreme limits.

Some of his method still rely on the social proof concept and pre- selection, but are somehow altered and upgraded. AFC Adam Lyons so called formulas start with building comfort, the stage where you befriend your target and establish the social proof. Then you continue towards the break rapport, where you take away your target, and continue towards building more value and make space for the girl to qualify. Only then you directly perform escalation to sex, resulting in instant attraction. Some of his convictions are that a great part of being happy in life is being comfortable in your own skin, and that happiness comes from within. He defines “pre-selection” as a situation when you surround yourself with people that want you, making other people (you want) to feel attracted to you. As a person, AFC Adam Lyons does not find satisfaction in a simple lifestyle. It is not enough for him to have few stable friends, a dull job and joy of drinking in the pubs and clubs over the weekends. He teaches his students to get out of the routine and make themselves more interesting.

He is a published author of many books and trainer and coach at many courses. Some of his most popular products are: “Principles of Attraction”, “Beyond The Game, “The 21 Convention 2012 (North America)”, “Real Man Conference 2008 DVD”, “Spectrum Series: AFC Adam and Speer on Social Proof”, “Real Man Conference 2008”, “Ultimate Natural Game”, “The 21 Convention Event Footage (2007-2009)”, “Instant Attraction Training Course”, “AFC Adam VIP Monthly Training”, “Lifestyle Seduction”, “Attraction Explained VIP Membership”, “Secrets of Transitioning to Sex”, “Street Seduce”, “The Guru Black Book”, “Breaking Rapport”, “Understand Attraction”, “Valentine’s Day For Singles”, “Adam Lyons Qualification” and a lot more.

During his intense work experience, Adam won many prestigious awards among which “Thundercat’s Seduction Lair Top 10 Pick Up Artist List 2009”, “TheLSS.com 2007 to date”, “World PUA Summit 2007: Number 1 Ranking UK” and many more.

Over many years of work, DJ Darren Fuji helped even thousands of hopeless cases to start experiencing the intimate side of life, develop relationships, and some of them even got married. He works with both men and women in large groups. His methods start with eliminating all of the negative energy and concentrating on building one’s self-confidence. Afterwards, the process includes intensive work on the social skills and body language development, spicing it up with appropriate sense of humor.

Once the cycle is over and the individual finds himself in a relationship, DJ Fuji may help them maintain their sexuality and manage their relationship with great quality. He operates through conducting different seminars, conferences, workshops or infield training, individually or in group.

Believe it or not, as a spacecraft systems engineer, JT Tran wasn’t always ‘smooth’ regarding interaction with women, not having one single date while he was in college. Applying his knowledge in system engineering over the skill of romance and dating, the Asian Playboy developed a quite specific and complex structure, named the ABCDEF, composed of three important components: thoughts, words and actions. This is a unique concept intended to teach men how to develop and adjust their attitude, how to change their appearance through the way they dress and the way they wear the actual wardrobe, and how to reveal and leave impression with their sexuality while dating women.

Mainly, his teaching is aimed towards self-confidence and communication skills development of really anxious Asian men. According to his techniques, the first step includes “kino” or kinesthetics. Just gently lay your hand on your target’s shoulder while for example, asking her to dance. She is most likely to say yes if you touch her. JT Tran openly says that the Asian males on American land are not perceived as the most alpha males when it comes to attraction and dating, but he is convinced that after a change in the behavior (starting with the removal of, as he would express himself, the “Asian poker face”) the situation will be completely different.

In an ABC News interview, JT Tran reveals some excellent tips and advice about certain behaviors during the first date. The date location choice is of great importance. Try to go out someplace you know well so you can have control of the whole situation. If the first date is going to be a place offering a certain activity, always pick an activity that you’re good at. For example, if you are good at playing pool, take her to a pool bar where you can teach her few things and impress her while doing so. Think about the conversation topics before the date, even write them down. The trick is always to assume that you will be in charge of the conversation stream in the first half an hour or an hour. Even if the woman you are with is strongly attracted to you, she will expect you to take the lead at the beginning. When arranging the date, be sure you are in control of the situation and be aware of the possible problems that may arise, for example if your date is allergic to certain kind of food, be sure not to take her to a restaurant that serves that food. Even though you had planned a perfect evening, bear in mind to stay flexible. Maybe your date will want to see a movie that evening, so be spontaneous and head towards the cinema to see when that movie is on. She will be strongly impressed by your bowing to her wishes. During the seminars arranged by ABCs of Attraction, in just three days filled with lectures and going outs, his clients are being advised on how to dress suitable, how to walk, act and smile, how their hair should look like, in order to become more attractive. The overall cost for a seminar like this is an amazing amount of $ 3 500.

Asian Playboy’s most popular products are: “The Importance of PUA Homework”, “Deterring AMGOs”, Game”, “Handling Female Tests and Approach Anxiety”, “Conversation Master Class”, “Alumni Exclusive Special Programs”, “Text so Sex”, “Practical Day Game” and many more. JT Tran had many appearances in the media including VH1 Pickup Artist, Nichi Bei Times, ABC, Enterpreneur, D Magazine, Chicago TV, Rutgers, Harvard and countless more. Not so long ago, the Asian Playboy launched his own AMWW (Asian Men and White Women) Magazine. “Building Attraction Through Storytelling”, “Learning Threesome

He is now well known for his Day Game, being forced to learn because at his beginnings he was under-aged and couldn’t go out in nightclubs and bars, which led to the development of the Day Game seminar for Mystery Method. Going out five nights of the week and reading most of the dating literature, evolutionary theory, books on masculinity, social psychology, feminist literature and other disciplines, he used some of the most “natural” ones, testing them in real life situations. Jonathan Lee’s own unique system is the “natural attraction” developed after many years of practice, allowing people to seduce the opposite sex by being themselves. As he would admit, after the research and reading, he got laid much more often. He works with men teaching them how to develop or enhance their skills being them natural selves and how to make women comfortable around you – comfortable enough to make them feel sexual towards you. Sinn was an instructor for many today known dating coaches, who went to work in Love Systems and other well-established companies.

Jonathan Lee’s advises had proved productive many times! Some of his books and other products include: “Destination: Girlfriend Coaching Program”, You”, “Secrets of 5 Minutes Chemistry”, “Beyond Seduction: 3 Days to Mastering “Breakthrough Comfort Formula”, “How To Get Girls To Chase Confidence and Techniques With Women”, “Flake Elimination Toolkit”, “The Seduction Roadmap”, “Conversation Master Class”, “The Social Training Camp”, “Advanced Strategies For Sexualized Comfort”, “Sinn’s Inner Circle”, “Interview Series Vol. 1 Approaching and Transitioning”, “The Complete Day Game From A to Z Mastery Program”, “Interview Series Bundle Pack 1 and 2” and a lot more. He has many workshops, boot camps and training courses, helping many lonely men to seduce the women of their dreams, just by being themselves. He has notable appearances on many television programs and interviews in magazines. He works extensively on his company’s DVD courses and training releases. Sinn was ranked as No.1 Pickup Artist in The World by TSB Magazine.

His game style is, as some would say, slightly metrosexual, a style that can be confusing for some of the men in the group, but it is a great strategy to invoke positive reaction from the ladies. He was one of the first PUA gurus posting PUA videos of himself online. He traveled the world interacting with different women (even approaching 5000), and luring them in bed. After using the methodology he learned in theory, he decided to develop his own based on the experiences he had.

Today, his company is greatly known for its fun routines and most of all, their “pure-kino” technique. Basically, this is a sort of improvisation of strong kinesthetics intended to give rise to the whole process of attraction. As it was previously proven, if you kindly touch someone during a simple conversation, the feeling of bonding grows deeper. He even pushes the theory further, adding the “ass slap routine”, where if you are in a good understanding with a girl, you may slap her behind and the gesture will be received as flirting, giving a certain form of social proof.

His philosophy is simple – build up your self-confidence in order to grow further. He proudly offers methodology by which every man can learn the skill on how to approach and seduce even the most beautiful women. Building up the self-confidence will show results not only in one’s intimate interactions with women, but it will influence one’s life regarding his personal and professional development and overall success in any field.

Some of his and his company’s products include: “Get The Girl! Manual – Nightlife Edition”, “The One (der) System”, “10 Second Sexual Attraction”, “Accelerated Attraction System”, “Infield Insider Vault”, “NSA System”, “Magnetic Smile”, and a lot more books, videos and step-by-step programs. He made countless appearances in the media; on MTV, Current TV, Wealth TV, in Saturday Night Magazine, Cosmopolitan, on the Playboy Radio, on the YoungHolliwood.com cover, on MTV True Life and so forth.

Starting his appearance in the underground seduction culture in 1990s, he was the first pickup artist offering live on-the-spot training. In 1997 Mystery replies to someone else’s post on a seduction community Internet forum, so this is the first time he actually appears on the PUA scene. As he would admit, he was a “late bloomer” himself, spending his time playing Dungeons and Dragons until his twenties, having absolutely no success with women. An interesting fact from his early age is his great interest in magic (even David Copperfield was his idol). He was performing magic tricks at children’s birthday parties, working full-time as a magician. But driven by the desire to give and receive love, he spent over ten years experimenting with different people and situations in the nightclubs (sometimes, as he would say, seven nights a week).

After countless rejections and errors during the learning process, he finally managed to put all of the results and theories in his “Venusian Arts Handbook”, which later became his bestselling book named “The Mystery Method: How To Get Beautiful Women Into Bed”. Some of his other products include: “The Mystery’s Method: Mystery’s Video Archive (5 Volumes), “Venusian Arts Bootcamp”, “Annihilation Method”, “Magnum Opus: The Mind of Mystery”, Beyond The Game”, “Revelation”, “Complete Sexual Mastery”, Exotic Dancers and Hired Guns”, The Pickup Artist: The New and Improved Art of Seduction” and many more.

By close observation of people and their social interactions or their behavior during the beginning of their relationships, combined with some of the theories from the evolutionary psychology, he succeeded in finding applicable theories of his own and translating those theories into methods and techniques, adding different analytic aspects in the field of seduction. He is directly responsible for coining some unique terms and concepts (taken from the evolutionary psychology) vastly used among the seduction community (also often used by his former student, Neil Strauss). Some of those concepts include: peacocking (where a conversation opener is a piece of eccentric wardrobe or an interesting detail), neg (throwing a compliment intended for ignoring the ‘target’ and leaving space for proving herself worthy enough, or qualify, another of his theories), the 3-second rule (where you must approach a girl in only 3 seconds after seeing her or the anxiety will build-up) and set (actual group of few – male and female – people which must be befriended by you in order to woo your selected target).

Aside from the coined terms and concepts, Mystery is practicing professional advice’s composed of step-by-step programs on maintaining of one’s emotional balance adjusted for every individual, and working on the skills and mind unity. Later, he uses these results to prepare and properly train men to approach and seduce the women of their dreams. In 2007, Mystery was a guest on the TV show “Late Night with Conan O’Brien”. Also, he received many awards. He found himself ranked among the “Top 10 Pickup Artists of The Year”, even making to number one in 2007. He won the award of “Best PUA In The World”. He has notable appearances in the People Magazine, The Star Magazine, on the CNN and countless more.
