Maybe I just got lucky, but this seminar addressed particular issues that have been diminishing my romantic relationships with women. What's particularly powerful is that these are very subtle issues that I might not have EVER picked up on. For example, I've always had a habit of looking at a lovely woman and appreciating her beauty. That sounds ok, no? Somehow though it was a tough haul to open that up into a conversation and relationship. What I found out in the exercises with the women was that they feel I am looking at them as an object. I looked CREEPY and I had no idea that I was doing that. When I expanded my awareness of them as human beings, and looked at them that way, they would smile or laugh and openly invite me to join them. Sure enough this change, this "fine tuning" is manifesting itself HUGELY in real life. It is a friggin' spectacular change in my ability to attract women that is by itself worth the entire fee of the workshop. That may NOT be one of your issues. The seminar designers do their best to create exercises where you experientially discover what is blocking you with women. Another issue I found I had was that I appear too eager to please women. This turns them off big time. I got excellent and HELPFUL insights from MOST of the exercises. Ironically, I had heard about the breathing exercise ahead of time and figured that I'd just have to tolerate that one to get to the "good stuff" but it turned out that one was just as helpful as most of the others. Instead of me writing up a storm here, please feel free to contact me at my email [email protected] if you have further questions. I am only representing my own experience and to some extent that of my colleagues in that one seminar. By the way, at the start of the seminar the leaders request that anyone not getting good value during the seminar please speak up. Also there is a money back guarantee, as I understand, although I have obviously not tried to invoke it. Everyone in my AMP weekend found it valuable but I don't know if that is true for other AMP weekends. I don't see why it would not be. Oh yeah, the group of us attending the January 2009 AMP session have been in contact since and that is also a valuable outcome - ongoing support among peers. I personally recommend that you study the work of David DeAngelo for more of a focus on "outer game" - that is, behaviors - and then the work of Decker and Bryan (AMP) for a more "inner game" focused approach. I find the combination has changed my life in VERY positive way. Again please feel free to email me: [email protected] I have NO commercial interest in AMP, directly or indirectly. Just a happy client. Art

I've taken a number of courses on relating with women and the Authentic Man Program was by far the best. A number of my friends have taken this course as well and we all had incredibly powerful, life-transforming experiences there. My experience doesn't match that of whoever wrote this negative report. No one forced me to cry or become angry. In my experience, the work at AMP is all about authenticity and I didn't feel like anyone working there had an agenda about what kind of experience I had, other than that they wanted me to get more in touch with myself and to have more freedom in my life. This was an intense course, and there is a good chance that you will have some emotions come up if you take it. If you don't want to deal with any of that stuff, then this is probably not the course for you. I personally found it to be one of the deepest and most empowering experiences of my life. Before I took this course, the work I was doing to get better with women was like putting sugar coating on the problem. AMP helped me get to the core issues that were in my way and were running my life. I had totally new and exciting ways of connecting with women open up to me as a result. The descriptions given in this report of some of the exercises don't match my experience at all. They are misleading or false and seem to miss the point of the exercises all together. I had a really profound experience doing the breathing exercise, for example. I remember feeling totally alive and ecstatic afterwards, and thinking that this exercise alone made it worth coming to the course, even if I didn't get anything else from it. But I actually got a ton more. The best part was the exercises with the women on Sunday. I couldn't believe how perceptive they were it was like they could see right through me. They were also totally supportive and I really got how much they cared about me even as they pushed me beyond the limits of my comfort zone. In fact, what really struck about the Authentic Man Program was how genuine everyone seemed to be. These guys were not in it for the money - they didn't try to pressure us to buy anything else at the end of the course. They obviously really cared about the men taking the program and really believed in their work.
