1 on 1 with Discovery... SUPERMODEL PARTY!!

[Skyhawk]

If I could sum up this weekend in three words they would be FUCKING. UNBELIEVABLY. AMAZING.

My fellow student K--- and I arrived in our shared hotel room Friday afternoon about an hour before Discovery showed up. As it turned out, having a shared hotel room may not have been the best idea, since K--- ended up bringing two girls back to the hotel room from the supermodel party Saturday night for his very first threesome. I shit you not. They weren't the models but one was definitely a little hottie. My notion of what is possible has been profoundly and forever expanded by what I witnessed this weekend.

You can read and read and read about this game, but until you go out and experience it first hand with some true masters you will be forever stuck in your own intellectual headspace. To rewire your mind properly you need first hand experience in the field with people further down the path than yourself. Period.

So in walks Discovery at the hotel around 7pm Friday night... an eccentric, larger than life character, yet very personable with a special gift for making people feel comfortable. He sat me down for an hour or so and got to know a little bit about me, where I was at, what my goals are, etc.. I watched him deliver the subtleties of countless routines and was given a few to practice for the night. I was told that the first night he would basically be observing me and the heavy coaching would come on Saturday. Getting pushed into sets Friday night was just what I needed to start desensitizing myself to approach anxiety and how I am perceived by other people. I learned first hand how important one's energy, vibe, and body language are when delivering the routines. They are more important than the actual words.

Discovery also gave me invaluable fashion tips, numerous routines to practice, showed me how to better carry myself, how to improve my voice tonality, my body language, etc, etc, etc.. Oh yeah, and he taught me to SMILE. That element is so key. Then in the field he corrected me every time I had a serious, I'm-not-having-fun look on my face, was leaning into a set, or whatever, so that his tips were more than just intellectualized: they are well on their way to becoming permanently wired into my being if I stay on this path.

Shortly after Discovery's arrival at the hotel "Top Cat" would walk in. A tall, well built black man with style to burn, Top Cat was a fantastic coach and did countless approach demos for me in the field over the course of the weekend. He would join us Friday and Saturday night at the clubs, and watching him and Discovery in field together was a real treat. The two of them make a powerful team. Top Cat, followed me around the clubs throughout both nights and gave me tips and pointers the whole time. Oh yeah, and he forced me into sets which is what I need at this point. I was encouraged by funny stories of guys like Top Cat and Discovery earlier on in their journeys, which I took as encouraging evidence that I too am well on my way to getting this thing.

Okay, about the supermodel party. We had a table in the VIP room reserved for us with an amazing view of the entire club through the glass wall behind our table. In a very short time 10 women, including the 5 models, were sitting around our VIP table being entertained by us. Social proof and preselection is for real guys. All you had to do was lead one or two of the girls with you to the dance floor, have fun, be observed, and you could literally jump from woman to woman. I had my bracelet touched so many times throughout the night I lost count. One tall blonde took it off of me and locked herself in by strapping it onto her own wrist. Ohh yeah.

Thanks in no small part to all of the social proof and preselection I had throughout the night I had one of the models hanging on my shoulder the end of the night. I sensed she wanted to kiss me but I didn't expect to be this far down the road on only my second night out, so it was a contingency I hadn't planned for. No worries. Top cat whispered into my ear, " now ask her if you can smell her neck and then tell her 'you smell so nice, I am trying so hard not to kiss you right now.'" So I asked. "That's a bit sexual, don't you think?," she replied. I didn't react upset and merely turned my back on her and focused my attention on Top Cat who was giving me more advice and soon she came tapping on my shoulder to rewin my attention. Give a little, then take it away. That's what I learned. I would get my kiss from her before the night was through. The second time I didn't ask, I simply smelled her neck, told her she smelled nice, and then kissed her. A nice kiss from a model. Not bad for my second night.

My roommate K--- and his two new found friends would put my kiss to shame however. He had been making out with TWO girls that he had bounced in the club upstairs to our VIP table.

Myself, K---, Top Cat, and Discovery switched venues with the models and K---'s two new friends to a strip club abound 3 a.m.. With that many girls around us the whole social dynamics of the strip club was turned on its head and the strippers were wondering who the fuck we were! Nice. Top Cat's instructions to me as a half-naked hotties would walk by with their asses in my face: don't turn and look at them. I didn't. The effect of doing this is dramatic. They wonder wtf and naturally perceive you as a higher value guy when you rob them of their sexual prowess.

At the end of the night I hung out in Discovery's hotel room for about an hour to give my roommate some space with his two girls. After an hour I thought to myself, "fuck it, I'm going in there and I am going to crash. The sun is coming up." So I entered the room, crawled into my bed, and threw the blanket over my body to the sound of K--- getting laid in the bed next to me. One of the girls crawled into bed with me and I got a little make out, but after the kiss from the model I wasn't interested in sloppy seconds so I just closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep with a girl's head on my chest, the sound of K---'s girl screaming and moaning across the room, and a head full of wonderment at new possibilities.

I'll be headed back next weekend for two more days and this time Mystery will be there. It will be hard to trump the energy of last weekend, but we'll see if it can be done by the great Mystery. Adieu until next week...

My 1 on 1 with Discovery in London

I proudly count the last weekend to the best times I've ever had.

We all have to decide what to do with our life's. Are you the type that acts when an opportunity presents itself or would you rather let it pass, possibly never to return?

I was stuck in Vienna when Discovery called to offer me a spot in a 1on1 in London, starting the very next day.. I decided to act. 15 hours later, on a rainy day In London's Camden Town, my perception of reality began to change and what would become the weekend with the most lasting impact on my life so far, begun.

Sat pm. discovery took us shopping to some vintage shops - wow - what you can pick up for £20!! Interestingly while Discovery was flamboyant in his style he did not look like the typical peacocked PUA - his colours were much lighter and friendly than the usual black, gloomy goth look. He explained that the *was much misunderstood by puas in that they take it too far and are usually miscalibrated with the environment, that they attract attention for the wrong reasons (being the guy others want to amog by looking like a target) *and said we should dress the coolest as possible for the venue we are going to and then with added uniqueness ( too much to go into here) he even demonstrated a story behind each items or necklace that he later demoed live in the club, much to the delight of the girls laughing at the punch line. what I did pick up on is that right at the punch line point of delivery he was already walking away (rolling off) which just made the girls chase him more.

The fashion angle was definitely hammered home when we were to meet up with a competitive trainer from Germany who Discovery had not met before and who wanted to join the VA Coaching team. As soon as I saw him and his wingman, I immediately got the typical black, gloomy, moody typical pickup look and in the hour that followed watching them both open sets during the day in shops etc, the difference between guys teaching and real Masters, the German Trainer (nice guy) constantly made approaches (confident) and Discovery would show us all the mistakes in body language, chasing etc, but when Discovery opened and it was like he was always smiling and speaking to people, it was as if he hadn't opened and every interaction was just by chance and a natural conversation, but beneath the banter, subtle DHVs, playful negs and roll offs, I recognised some very polished routines that he had shared with us earlier. *

SAT NIGHT - Super Models Summer Party

- tables for this event were £1000, but Discovery worked early contacting the club promoter to let them know he was sending 8 models their way and gave the names of some well known models he knew???, then he told them the group of 4 guys (us) would be arriving later and needed looking after - what could they do - they agreed ViP guest list.

He wasn't finished - we arrived at the club with 2 lines, one for VIPs, he walks straight past both and with an amazing presence, banters with the security then introduces himself to the hot VIP hostess, telling her she " too much black!" waits a split second till she is about to react, " however.... You pull it off well!" Introduces himself as Shaun-Michael (real name), you have a table for my guests and we absolutely promise (pause) to misbehave!" she warms to him and ushers him past the VIPs and he brings us all in - SLICK! She agrees a table for us (no charge) and then Discovery convinces her when we get there, to give us the biggest and best table, behind glass overlooking the whole club.

Then he says "let's go create a Party" before introducing himself friendly to the adjacent tables who looked a bit stale and boring. We head back down stairs, Discovery whispering to keep smiling (hard to keep up all night long), while walking slowly thought the just getting started club (we arrived early as he told us it would be better to warm up and other people and be heard). The hottest set were at the bar and rather than go straight to them, Discovery has us chatting and giving amongst ourselves, preventing us from observing the room. He had told us that objective tonight was to act and look like we belong, while having a fun, playful, none needy vibe - do that and the energy will unfold. I noticed that just by being into our own group and having fun, the attention it attracted (also a lot less pressuring). Then he ordered shots - funny even this seemed to have a style all of it's own, than just ordering a drink, he bantered with the bar maid, won over the bar guy with some interesting challenge and then had us drink the shots 'LA Style' with no hands which again just attracted more attention. I did notice that the girls adjacent (targets) asking for a drink, which he refused playfully and then told her "you remind me of my testicles" (Discovery always pushes boundaries and seems to enjoy doing it), for a moment it looked like he was about to get slapped, but the seconds later the were both laughing and grabbing at him. I would share with you the gambit, but we agreed not to post any of his personal gambits that he shares only with 1on1 students.

NOW I see hoe the game really works!!!!! - while he is leaning against the bar, running a story with the girls, 2 other models walk by and he says something to them, they immediately start touching him and competing for attention, he then introduces them to the other 2 girls and all of a sudden we have 4 hotties in our group. We are right now observing and Discovery introduces us to the girls which he had given guys names to and who themselves introduce themselves by the guys names he had given them. At this point we are the most vibrant group and based on a what he explained was huge 'pre-selection' a girl I opened while walking by, just a blew open and within seconds she had dragged me to the dance floor. Everyone could see us laughing and playing and based on that and our group size with hot models, we just got more attention.

It was then that Discovery negged a hot Blonde 9 walking by, (probably e hottest girl in the club) and within minutes they were part of our entourage. He ran some 'humour tracks' to keep the girls warmed up and then just as he was getting ioi's *from the 9, stopped mid track to speak to a new group who had just walked in and who he apparently knew as the lead girls gave him kisses on the cheek. I could see that while this was going on the 9 just hovered waiting for him. He then said something like "fuck it! Let's go create our own bubble" he then lead us and my girl (10+ girls and 4 guys) to the VIP entrance, where the security guard stopped us and said VIPs only, but it was only our group of 4 that had the VIP stamps. The energy seemed to die without the girls, but Discovery kept his smile and said something confidently to the security bouncer that sounded suspiciously like an NLP pattern and the next thing he moved the red barrier and let us all in to the delight of the girls. this Discovery explained later was a display of the core attraction switch 'Leader of Men' and couple with such 'Pre-Selection' said was 80% of the game.

I realised Discovery never once mentioned the VIP table as a pull, but kept it as a surprise when they all got there. The girls all loved being so high up for all to see and a party that I will remember for rest of my life erupted!

It is worth noting too that even when we seemed like we had achieved our objective with having the hottest UK models all round us, Discovery continued to roll off and engage others, especially the leader guys of other tables, the women seemed to sense he was the 'main guy' in the whole room and everyone just flocked to him, including the reporter and his cameraman, who just kept taking photos with him and the models, which he later explained was 'flash game' and just attracted more attention.

At one point it went quiet in my set and Discovery leaned in and gave me what he called an AI - Accomplishment Intro, but rather than some cheesy line about me dating other models, it was about thanking me for looking after his family when he had to go a way for a day awhile they were visiting him" this he explained was a comfort AI as he said I already had done the attraction phase and now needed to build comfort.

Discovery took the 9 with him to the other tables and then brought some key guys to our table to try and even out the balance of 10-12 girls for 4 guys. One he place with my sets obstacle and others he just introduced to the girls and again rolled off. It was an amazing feeling having the hottest women party with us and the other cool guys all hanging round us.

The guys didn't do too well and Discovery moved them around, at that point he leaned in to the obstacle and my target and said something about "sharing the moment". Seconds later I was making out with both and Discovery was ready, camera in hand :-)

I took them to the bar upstairs and gave the LA-shot routine a try myself. It worked great! One of them had Jäger drip into her cleavage, I liked it out! It was on, there was enough attraction for them to bounce to the next club with us and from there back to the hotel for my first 3some!

My gratitude and respect go out to Discovery, who opened my eyes and showed me how much is possible.

Hey guys,
I am the competitive Trainer from Germany as yama described so ;D
I met Shaun and his two students on Saturday afternoon. Shaun has a very impressing presence and even more self-esteem than me, which impressed me much. He also has a great personality and uses it for authority. He is a very talktative and never stopps giving the students even more material and feedback. He is also a very bright guy, who communicates with his ambience so that he is always the center of the actions, that especially woman are noticing. I have no doubt, he has great game, it was nice to meet him and the 2 students, who where likeable guys. I am already giving Seminars, Workshops & 1on1 Coachings in Germany, but I think, there are some points where I can still advance. I saw Shaun, and I am looking forward to get coached by some Master PUAS like him, Mystery, Lovedrop & Matador. I will definitely attend the Coach Development Programme and I feel honoured to be chosen. Thank you.

Being only a recent incomer to pickup, social skills and the game, every week is a new journey that opens my eyes to what's possible. But none more so than spending time with the masters, this is an acceleration process in your game that matches Formula 1.

Having attended a bootcamp in New York just to sample what this was all about (I didn't attend the infield but looking back that was a mistake), I decided that I wanted to really progress quickly, and signed up for the inaugural VA California Road Trip. I'm going to diary this trip in another post as there were so many highlights, but in summary it was a week of hanging out with 5 other really cool guys, having fun trying different adventures that gave us new DHV stories, creating a lifestyle rather than just sarging, fashion tips, health tips, fitness tips, and nightly pickup. During the days, we travelled to new locations, vibing in the car and learning / practising new routines, and at night we went infield in bars, clubs, casinos, strip clubs, and private parties.

So it comes down to this, the message that kept getting hammered into us - the game is played (and practised) infield. Sitting in front of a laptop learning new routines and reading about others' success stories will help to some extent, but there is no substitute for getting out there, desensitizing, and getting actual responses that allow you to calibrate and modify your delivery based on what actually works. Remember, 93% of what you 'say' is body language and delivery, only 7% is the actual words - remember that next time you want to sit in and read new DHV stories.

But if learning infield is the key, learning with a master like Discovery is like having a skeleton key that opens all doors - not only does it let you see your own perceptions and 'glass ceilings' being smashed as you see what is possible, but it gives you real and instant feedback on delivery, body language, creating a fun vibe, being the ghost and flame, and the importance of preselection. And it helps to see just how all that technical overload that a bootcamp puts in your brain really works. Discovery has a great vibe that instantly creates attraction, he is constantly pushing all of the attraction switches with what he says and what he does, and creates a persona that I want to emulate, not just being a master at pickup, but you can see how this extends to his whole lifestyle - getting into VIP areas, walking to the front of lines, hotel and flight upgrades, and generally bringing some pleasure into the lives of people he encounters. Whether a 9.5 or the concierge at the hotel, people seem to leave him with a smile and that look that something special has just happened in their day.

As to the success stories, I opened more sets than I had in any week before, kiss closed a Seattle businesswomen and a Czech model, and created enough attraction with a stripper to take her home (Discovery pointed this out to me and the fact that her boyfriend was jealously hanging at the end of the bar was the only thing that prevented it). And only logistics prevented closing the Czech model; I was sharing a room with my wing and she was rooming with family. So not having kiss closed for months, this was a real measurable improvement to my game that I attribute to learning from Discovery. And it was worth every cent, I can't put a price on how that week made me feel. Bg shout out also to Colgate who got me through my boundaries in the strip club, taught me so many routines, was great at analysing infield game, and just great fun to hang out with.

Since the roadtrip, I've been infield with Discovery in Miami and Vegas, and am still gradually moving down my own path of learning. But every minute infield with this guy gives you valuable learning, and is a hell of a lot of fun. I roomed on the roadtrip a couple of nights with the guy above who got the threesome, and hearing the story firsthand is hilarious, it really made me believe that this is possible for me (and really anyone). With the right coaching and instruction, and plenty of practice, you can be a totally different success story in only a few months. I've now met Mystery, Matador and Lovedrop at different bootcamps, and each brings a unique style, and each one very successful, and this has allowed me to try different styles.

I'm just really impressed with the professionalism from VA, in an industry I was always a bit sceptical of, and where training from the top industry leaders is possible - where else can you say that? Can you get business coaching with Richard Branson or Bill Gates, fight training from Olympic Gold medallists or martial arts' experts, swimming lessons from Michael Phelps, soccer training from Sir Alex Ferguson, football coaching from Peyton Manning or Drew Brees, baseball skills with Derek Jeter, acting lessons from Al Pacino or Cameron Diaz, or golf lessons from Tiger Woods? Well, maybe Tiger could join VA and coach pickup skills, but I guess you'd need fame and a lot of money to play his game. But my point is, you can get real infield training with the best of the best. And isn't attracting hot girls and creating a high-value social lifestyle much more important than golf, swimming or baseball?

I'm now investing in my own development with Discovery and the rest of the VA team, because I've seen the results (and instant results) it's had on me. I would encourage any of you to do the same if you really want to get this skill nailed. And with proper instruction, coaching and hard work, you could be passing on your new skills to others as part of the VA team.

At my first bootcamp I heard "the few who do are the envy of the many who don't", I'm so glad I just took that first small step to get involved that changed my life.

Happy sarging (but do it armed with some real skills)
