The seduction community was brought into the spotlight following the release of the best selling book "The Game" by Neil Strauss AKA Style. It had operated for years prior to that, mainly on newsgroups populated by a small number of geeky posters, the main pioneer at the time being Ross Jeffries
Mystery quickly took over the scene with his new approach which he later called the M3 model. Neil Strauss was assigned the job of reporting on Mystery and the community for a newspaper article and ended up living with him for two years in Hollywood. This time is well recounted in the book "The Game", and saw the emergence of PUAs like Tyler Durden, Bishop, and Juggler. Today the community is split and there is bad blood between Tyler's company - Real Social Dynamics, and Mystery's crew. There are stories of public arguments, nervous breakdowns, and other drama.
The big US names do not travel to London anymore for trainings, and there are no globally famous UK PUAs, but this will change very soon. The PUA training team realised after meeting Mystery, Tyler, and supposedly other best in the world PUAs that they are up to the same standard and in some ways better. In future, the community will continue to expand, with the possibility of a film based on the book. It will however likely stay underground simply because of the over-complication of the material that makes it seem daunting to newcomers.
The pick-up business has a slightly bad name in some parts, either for the idea that it treats women as objects, or the notion that it is for geeky losers. The fact is there is a dark side - men that have become bitter because of their lack of success and so have an unhealthy attitude to women. However, this is not the majority and it is very possible to find trainers and wingmen who love women and would just like to feel more in control of their love life.
The pick-up community has enabled many men to get better success with women - one of the fundamental needs of all men (Health, Money, Women, right?). Most spend a lot of time worrying about whether they will be happy in this area and the pick-up arts gives them the tools and techniques that never existed before. There was no good education on this subject before. You only had naturals and AFCs (Average Frustrated Chumps) and lots of useless advice. Now you have a third category - PUAs, and in the right hands, an AFC can outgame a natural within a short amount of time with intelligent directed effort and the right help.

Pick-Up Routine
We don't use routines or canned material anymore - we are direct, but it is a great way to get started. Students will usually start with a routine so that they know what they are going to say and don't have to think on the spot until they are more comfortable. A simple routine that was successfully used by us is:
Open (3 girls): (suspicious) Are you guys making mischief over here?
Transition
Universal Transitions
Cold read of group dynamics
Which of you guys gets hit on the most?
High 5
Transition
She is cute, is she house trained?
Roleplay
Can you cook?
Escalate kino with: do you like dancing/which of you girls is the toughest?
She wants me!
You are the coolest girls I’ve talked to…in the last 15 minutes!
You’re my new GF
Isolate by turning her
Fluff talk with PUA spice
Rapport on common interest
Deep Rapport™
Speed Seduction Gambler k-close pattern
K-close
C&F, Deep Rapport™
Extract.
F-close
Become a PUA
The natural progression from AFC to MPUA will usually follow these steps depending on pre-existing skills and how you direct your energy.
Game improvement from practice:
- Nothing. Nada
- Can date within social circle when girl makes it VERY obvious. Physical escalation slow. Boring dates
- Gets the guts to approach in clubs after long time staring at girl giving him IOIs, low success rate
- Learns how to approach easy sets in a club and get occasional n-close, but most stale out before then and most numbers flake
- Can get into comfort on date. Good rapport but sometimes run out of things to say. No idea how to escalate. Miss lots of opportunities
- Can approach a bit more, but still with nerves that they can see. No kino, go for kisses etc awkwardly on date 3 or something
- Can approach cold and gain interest and establish rapport. Cannot isolate or handle a group. No game for a noisy club. Can only number close or occasional k-close on a first meeting
- Can do quite good day-approaches with some success
- Can approach and isolate with a wing. Can get rapport, and can use basic kino and k-close
- Can isolate and escalate kino but too slowly, can get k-close and f-close with easier targets. (At this point you can quit and already be better than 99% and have this area handled enough for it not to be a worry any more)
- Dance floor game - approach, escalate, extract. In 2 minutes
- Can f-close easier targets but useless on day 2 when energy level drops - cannot ramp it back up
- Master day 2 game (80%+ f-close rate)
- Can handle a group approach and isolate without a wing. Rarely blown-out.
- Learn non-verbal pick-up
- Learn how to lead, escalate, quickly isolate
- Able to open, build comfort, escalate, extract, close in any environment including daytime same day f-close
- Threesomes, women chasing you, 5 in a week, etc etc. You made it!
- Superhero PUA, you give off an energy that women find irresistible and you only have to look at them
We have had students get from zero to stage 11+ in one day and progress even further in the following weeks.
We have also seen guys spend thousands of pounds on other bootcamps and products and still be at stage 4!

Bad Chat-up Lines
As a by-product of researching the area for years, and talking to lots of hot women who have to listen to this stuff, we have collected a huge number. These are some of the funniest and are here purely for your amusement. Use at your own risk.
- Hey, the word for the day is legs, let’s go back to my place and spread the word
- Pardon me miss, I’m drunk, are you cute?
- Are those f*ck me eyes or f*ck you eyes?
- If I were you, I’d be all over me
- Do you have any raisins? No, then how about a date?
- Is it just you or is it hot in here?
- You might be asked to leave soon, you’re making the other women look bad.
- I’ve got this magic watch that tells me whether you are wearing underwear or not. You're not. Oh damn, it must be an hour fast.
- Anything drugs can do I can do with my tongue
- My place. 10 O’clock. Bring a friend
Recommended PUA Products
There is a lot of junk out there. Gambler spent 6 months in his house, for 8 hours a day studying the theory. Some of it was useful, a lot of it wasn't. In this section, we used to recommend 3rd party products, now there is no need to.
The reason is that the Home Study Course from PUATraining is the ultimate resource, it has everything you could possibly need to know in order to be able to get the hottest girls, and all at a price that makes it a no-brainer. We purposefully set out to make something that represented the next evolution of the pick up arts and you'll love it. Get it handled today.
Recommended Books
These books will make you a more well-rounded and attractive person. The Game is the intro to PU, but in terms of useful info, it is light. Comedy Writing Secrets teaches you how to be funny. If you apply it, it works. Uncommon therapy is an intro to Milton Erickson, the genius who NLP and much of influence in communication is based on. Impro is a great book for helping to be spontaneous and features great stuff on status.
Speed Reading People teaches you how to read any person accurately using Myers Briggs, if you put in the work, you can cold read people amazingly accurately. The Selfish Gene puts reproduction in a biological way that stops you thinking too much about doing something natural. The next two, Frogs Into Prince, and Introduction to NLP... are two good places to start in NLP. Absolute Pleasure is the best of a bad bunch in this area.
An Actor Prepares is the classic acting book about getting into role, it's useful generally but relating to PU for state control, story-telling, etc. The Mystery Method book will be a much better starting place than The Game in terms of useful info. The Cube is some chick crack, but it actually works and tells you true things about them! The Alphabet of Manliness, you need those masculine qualities sometimes. Handwriting Analysis, is the bible of handwriting analysis books. Prometheus Rising is a personal choice, it is one of Gambler's 5 favourite books and is life-changing.
Published Author
The definitive book on seduction is obviously The Natural Art of Seduction by yours truly
Teach Yourself Alexander Technique is worth a look for posture. Neil Strauss/Style studied Alexander Technique. Taken too far the posture is not very manly, a little bit though will help you stand straight and look your best. Art of Seduction is from the writer of 48 laws of power, it has some interesting ideas but is quite heavy. Influence is the classic for sales, marketing, and influencing people.
Recommended by David D and given to students of Style's Annihilation Method. Way of the Superior Man is by the excellent David Deida, we also recommend his audio products available on his website. Seamm Jesani is very good for relaxation, energy, and all that cool stuff. Gambler uses the breathing exercises.
Roger Dodger is the closest we have to a PUA film. The Canon Ixus 800IS is the official PUAtraining.com HB pics camera. Best for night-time, in-club pics with flash, fast start up time, small, and looks cool. Movie mode for HB movies (!) is near-camcorder quality. Ipod is necessary for state control. Record affirmations, pick-up lines, onto MP3, get some PUA audio products, meditation stuff, self-hypnosis, some music that pumps you up, and you are set.
