General
Our founder, JT Tran, better known as the Asian Playboy, is widely regarded as the world’s best Asian pickup artist and the toughest instructor in the industry. He created the Holistic method of pickup and was the first dating coach to teach a uniform, repeatable curriculum instead of one-off tricks. He has coached more minority students than anyone in the field and specializes in interracial dating. His focus is the Asian men other companies turn away: guys with almost no social skills who have rarely dated. He was once unable to even breathe around women, so he built the exact system he needed and now teaches it worldwide, from direct and indirect game to social circle game and physical escalation. The Nichi Bei Times likened him to Tom Cruise. For the full media coverage, see the proof question below.
The primary difference between a Premium or Certified Bootcamp is who the instructor will be. Premium bootcamps are taught by the world famous JT Tran, “USA’s #1 Asian Dating Coach.”
Certified Bootcamps will still teach the holistic ABCDEF System by an instructor who has apprenticed under JT Tran himself. Each coach brings a different facet of their own personality and expertise to the already life changing ABCDEF curriculum. For example, Jeff Khan is a former ABCs client who was mentored by JT Tran personally and now excels at threesome, multiple relationships, and polyamory game in addition to being an expert at the holistic style of the ABCDEF System.
You will also find that the Premium bootcamps are a more intimate experience with higher personalization, but also has a higher tuition. While Certified Bootcamps are for the more budget minded and are very much worth the experience.
We’ve been on various television networks and have been invited to speak at Ivy League University events. JT Tran has spoken at Yale, Harvard, University of Chicago, and Wharton School of Business. The ABCs of Attraction has also been featured on Nightline, Her Campus, NBC, LA Weekly, and New York Magazine.

Here are the terms you’ll hear most often. For anything not on this list, just ask your instructor.
- AMOG (Alpha Male Other Guy) – Another guy who rudely intrudes on your interaction.
- Approach Anxiety – The discomfort you feel before walking up to someone.
- BT (Buying Temperature) – How much emotional energy a person has in the moment.
- Compliance Test (CT) – A request, spoken or not, that gauges how receptive someone is.
- DHV (Displaying Higher Value) – Communicating your attractive qualities.
- Fractionation – Moving back and forth between the steps of the ABC structure.
- Holistic Game – Combining pickup skills with real self-improvement.
- Kino – Deliberate touch used to build attraction.
- Shit Test – A woman’s remark that sounds negative but really asks whether you’re as confident as you seem.
Short answer: Depends.
Longer answer: We can only travel to the major cities and countries. While we would love to teach in your particular location, there are only so many weekends in the month and traveling too much takes a toll on the instructor which would degrade YOUR experience as a student. Instead, we put all our efforts into making the bootcamps in the major cities an eventful, educational and hopefully wonderful experience.
If you would like to inquire if we are coming to your location, fill out our contact form. It can’t hurt to at least ask!
It is 100% private, anonymous, and confidential so let your voice be heard!
About Bootcamps Programs
Ticket tiers (Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze) are no longer used. Ticketing has been simplified, so check the current bootcamp calendar for the specific tickets and pricing available for your city and dates.
Yes. Every review on our page is unedited and unpaid. One student, two weeks after bootcamp: “man my life has CHANGED.” Another walked in a skeptic and left on a completely different path. Read the unfiltered reviews here: abcsofattraction.com/reviews.
No, we keep alumni contact information private to protect their privacy. We do have video testimonials from real students you can watch instead: https://youtu.be/L1P8tGlYZ8c https://youtu.be/YdheIdu-6fY https://youtu.be/4Y-vCgYmYqY
Yes, for most students one bootcamp is enough if they put in the work. Results depend on effort: students who follow instructions and dress their best often see success during or right after the bootcamp, while those who make excuses or skip directions need more practice. Bootcamps cover a lot of material, so take detailed notes since the schedule runs straight through to the end. If you want a refresher, we offer a 25% discount on a second bootcamp or phone coaching, and your 4th bootcamp is free when you take 3 (1 at full price, 2 at the discount). Alumni gatherings and hangouts with coaches after the bootcamp are always free.
Absolutely! The ABCs of Attraction is more than just picking up attractive women. We’ve had students in the past who were married that took the program to better communicate with their wives and children.
Yes, the ABCDEF structure applies well beyond dating. Students have used it to ace job interviews, negotiate higher salaries, and maintain their long term relationships. Married students use it to communicate better with their wives and children. Some students credit it with helping them helped them break out of drug/party addiction, or repair broken relationships with families..
Three things set us apart. We teach a step-by-step system you can actually run within three days, not vague theory. We don’t sell overnight magic or make promises that sound too good to be true. And the ABCs was built by JT Tran from his own struggle learning this from zero as an Asian man, so the system is designed for guys who weren’t born naturals.
Day Game Workshops are lighter and more flexible: 2 days, 10 hours total (2 hours lecture, 8 hours in-field), that fit your schedule. Bootcamps are our flagship program: an intensive 3-day, 2-night course of about 30 hours on a fixed schedule that can’t be altered. Friday and Saturday focus on night game, and Sunday afternoon is a shorter day game session with coaches.
We offer multiple long term coaching options, skype/phone coaching, residential coaching, and single night sessions.

No hard age limit, but some restrictions apply under 21. We’ve taught men up to age 65, and our system works across ages and backgrounds. Most domestic bootcamp night sessions happen in bars or clubs with age restrictions, so if you’re under 21 we may not be able to include you in those portions (international age limits vary, so ask). Under-21 students can still attend the daytime lecture portion at half the normal cost. For an all-inclusive experience with no age restrictions, we recommend one of our Day Game courses instead.
No. About 25% of our students are Caucasian, alongside Asian, black, Latino, and Indian clients. JT (The Asian Playboy) built his reputation teaching Asian men to handle racism and prejudice in dating, but the ABCs of Attraction system works for everyone regardless of race. There’s a video testimonial here from a non-Asian student, and you can read “Can a Non-Asian PUA Take An ABCs of Attraction Bootcamp?” for more.
Pre Bootcamp
Your deposit unlocks the pre-bootcamp homework: videos, handouts, and audio to help you prepare for the bootcamp weekend. Study it thoroughly so you don’t fall behind once the weekend starts.
You can also call or email staff with any questions about the homework before the bootcamp.
Yes, because it gives you the structure most self-taught daters never get. This is Johnny Wolf, Founder of the SoCal Lair and Co-Founder of the PUA Summit.
The ABCs is holistic: fundamentals, order, structure, and growth. My game grew tenfold after I found it. Before that I had pieces of good game (opening, building comfort, closing) but no way to connect them, and my results still came down to getting lucky.
The ABCs taught me when and how to transition between each stage. We call it HOLISTIC GAME: Inner Strength, Outer Confidence, and Verbal Attraction, built into every phase of the ABCs Model from A to F.
Most PUAs build on a pieced-together foundation. Students who show up with a pile of bad habits just take longer to unlearn them, so learn the structure first. The ABCs is simple enough for beginners but leaves room to grow into direct, indirect, natural, and social circle game.
– Johnny Wolf (former ABCs student-turned-Certified Instructor)
No, it’s optional. We highly recommend completing the pre-bootcamp homework package to get the most out of your bootcamp experience, but if you signed up last minute we don’t expect it. It’s a bonus package meant to shorten your learning curve.
If you don’t have time to finish it, that’s fine. Don’t let it hold you back or intimidate you.
Yes. Many of our attendees come as referrals from guys who’ve taken the program before, and bootcamp graduates often buy a future program for a friend, family member, or coworker. We’re happy to accommodate.
The person receiving the gift needs to schedule directly with the main office and confirm which program they’re attending. They must attend within six months of purchase unless the office approves an exception.
During Bootcamp
Come dressed and ready to go out each day.
Hair, glasses, odor: bring contacts if you wear them, skip gel, and use a pomade like DiFi, Sculpte, or Gatsby (Axe is the lowest acceptable brand). Wear body deodorant like Old Spice or Axe, chapstick or lotion for dry skin, cologne like Christian Dior Fahrenheit, sugarless gum for breath control, and Crest White Strips if your teeth are naturally yellowed.
General fashion, if you don’t already have a strong sense of style: black dress shoes or nice boots (no tennis shoes or hiking boots), designer jeans with no rips or tears (H&M carries a decent affordable pair), a fitted black or grey blazer or vest if you have one, and a long-sleeved white, blue, or red collared shirt.
Avoid all black, grey, plaid, and sweats, at least on the first day. A colorful accent (red tie, blue handkerchief, silver jewelry) is a nice but optional touch.
You, your fellow students, and a team of certified approach coaches who assist the main instructor. We aim for a 3-to-1 student-to-instructor ratio, so we bring in coaches to hit that number.
These coaches are former alums with years of experience and hundreds of hours running the ABCs structure in field. They’re not a substitute for the main instructor. They’re supplemental coaches and wingmen who support you during the day game drills and the night portion.
We take it seriously and follow your lead. We like to take photos during the bootcamp for fun, but if you don’t want to be photographed, we’ll respect that. The tradeoff is you won’t have photos of the weekend or social proof shots (like the one of you kiss-closing a 10).
We also ask students to post a review on our online forum, a safe place where every member picks an avatar so nothing they write is tied to their real identity. Posting there is optional.
We stay in touch with alumni on Facebook and would never post anything incriminating on your wall or discuss you publicly. Whatever privacy you want, we’ll work with you to give you the best bootcamp experience.
Post Bootcamp
After you complete your bootcamp. We believe in building your core foundation first before adding extra resources like Modern Asian Man, Text to Sex, or Practical Daygame, so Early Bird bonus products unlock once your bootcamp is done.
You can request early access before the bootcamp, but doing so waives your right to a refund on the first day.
Once you’ve completed the bootcamp, allow 24-72 hours for an email with your username and password to access the products.
Interns and Employment
Occasionally, yes. We accept interns based on:
1. ABCs bootcamp alumni status (have you taken a bootcamp with us?)
2. Active involvement in our forum and on Facebook
3. Strong potential as an instructor who can run the ABCs methodology
Read this article for more on how to get started.
Media Relations/ Inquiries
For all media inquiries, please send an email to support@abcofattraction.com
We will reply to your inquiry within 1 business day.
Payments / Finance
Yes, we do. We proudly donate 10% of all proceeds which go to support An Orphan’s Prayer Foundation. This charity has established relationships with global missions to help restore children’s lives through orphan care. Currently AOP is sustaining a village of 60 orphan children in La Hatte, Haiti and your dollars are going there to help. AOP is providing food, clothing, medical care, and education for the children in La Hatte. Our financial support also provides placement of Christian ‘mommas’ to love and care for the children. For more information about An Orphan’s Prayer Foundation or to donate directly to the cause, check out their website. http://www.anorphansprayer.org/
Our refund policy is designed to give you peace of mind to sign up early for our bootcamps without worry. Also we are so confident that you will enjoy the bootcamp experience and find it worth every penny if not more, just as hundreds of our previous students have, we offer a full, prorated refund policy.
The full prorated refund means if you stay 1/3 of the bootcamp, you’ll just pay 1/3 of the price minus the event and credit card transaction fee.*
Bootcamp is 3 days, 3 nights, so if you stay 1 day, 1 night, you’ll only be charged for 1/3 of the full price. (Example, if a bootcamp’s total cost is $1,500, and you stay one day and one night, you’ll be charged $500 only)
* Refunds have to be requested IN PERSON during the bootcamp to one of your trainers. You must speak with your trainer laying out your concerns and obstacles that you’re currently facing and give him full faith effort to rectify and address any grievances. If you still want a refund after discussing your situation with your trainer in person, then we will process your refund 48-72 business hours after the end of bootcamp. Simply not showing up to class will not be cause for a refund and your payment will be forfeit.
FOR DOMESTIC PROGRAMS: There is no fee or penalty to cancel if more than 30 days notice is given-you’ll receive a 100% refund.* The penalty for cancellation with less than 30 days notice, or after pre-bootcamp homework has been accessed or after plane tickets and travel arrangements have been purchased, is the first day deposit.
FOR INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMS: Due to the high cost of international airline tickets, the penalty for cancellation before 30 days notice is $300. If airline tickets have already been purchased or notice is given with less than 30 days, the full payment is forfeit. Again, this has to do with the high cost of traveling overseas and the prohibitive price of flying trainers to another country.
FOR 1-ON-1s AND LONG TERM TRAINING: The nature of 1-on-1s and long term training programs (like, but not limited to, our 12 Weeks Of Fury) means that your trainer has to shift his schedule a significant amount in order to accommodate you. This means rearranging his personal, family, romantic life as well as professional life in order to accommodate you. This is especially true if he has to fly to your location. Because of the huge commitment in time and resources that the instructor and and company have to commit to you, no refund is possible once your deposit has been made. This supersedes any other refund policy.
If you simply don’t show up, and make us wait around trying to figure out what happened to you, the entire deposit will be forfeited or you can have a full credit towards another bootcamp with a $300 penalty. You can also receive full credit towards a rescheduled bootcamp if you inform us before the 30 day time limit.
Rescheduling is limited to one time only and is at the discretion of the lead instructor. Excessive rescheduling requests will result in the forfeiture of the deposit. This is to prohibit bootcamp spots form being taken up by cancellations.
So please let us know ahead of time if you can’t make it.
ACT OF GOD CLAUSE: If a cancellation is requested within seven days of a program, all deposits and payments will be considered forfeit except in the event of extreme circumstances limited to acts of God, or family death. In the case of these extreme circumstances, the bootcamp attendee will be scheduled for the next program in or near the event city within six months. If the attendee is unable to reschedule, the deposit and/or payments will be considered forfeit. All other cancellation requests will be denied and the deposit/payments forfeit.
PRE-BOOTCAMP HOME STUDY COURSE: Each bootcamp purchase comes with a free bonus home study product in order to get you in on the ground floor running and to supercharge your results even before the start of the bootcamp. It includes a package of audio, video, and written guides aimed at getting you the most bang for your buck. However, it is entirely optional. If you choose to access your home study course, you waive the right to request a full refund before the program begins. Our standard prorated refund policy to ensure your peace of mind then applies.
* DISCOUNT RATES VOID REFUND POLICY: If you qualified for a discount and accepted it (this also includes discounts on products), then the refund policy is void. For example, in 2013 we offered Early Bird Discounts, which meant clients who paid in full early received a discount. And in the majority of cases, our bootcamps and Tours are sold out. However, by asking for a refund at the last minute or for whatever excuse, you denied someone else the opportunity to attend that bootcamp seat. Thus, you have two options: either accept the discount (only if one has been offered you and you qualify) and waive the right to a refund OR pay the full price of the ticket and be covered by our “Peace Of Mind” Refund Policy. This is a very similar and reasonable policy that major hotels and airlines have when it comes to selling their tickets at discounted prices in advance or selling them at full price.
But we hope that you never have to use our “Peace Of Mind” Refund Policy and join the ranks of the tens-of-thousands of ABCs Of Attraction students around the world who have joined the elite rank of bootcamp graduates and been satisfied by the elite level of instruction and personalization that we provide. We hope to work with you soon!
Students are responsible for their own individual hotel, flight, food and drinks.
HOTEL: We recommend getting a hotel a week in advance of the program and making sure it’s refundable with 24 hour notice in case the seminar location changes for whatever reason. Get a hotel near the seminar location or the downtown area of the city. You can also split a hotel room if you want to save on expenses or stay at a hostel.
FLIGHT: For flights, we recommend flying in either a day early if it’s a long flight or flying in that morning/afternoon. Generally (look at your individual event page for specific, up-to-date details), weekend programs start on Friday at 4pm. Give yourself time to get to your accomodations from the airport, freshen up, and relax.
You can book an inexpensive hotel and flight at either Kayak.com or Priceline.com.
MISC EXPENSES: The students are responsible for the club entrance of both themselves and only one trainer at a time, so expect to spend $50-$100 per night or- in other words- a normal night of going out expenses anyways. This will obviously depend on how much you drink (if you choose to drink) and other misc random expenses, but can range from very little if you are frugal to more.
TRANSPORTATION & TAXI: The students are responsible for both their own and their instructor/coach/intern/winggirl’s transportation during the infield portion of the bootcamp. Each individual is responsible for getting to the seminar and then to venue with whomever and whatever form it takes. This may be your own vehicle, a shared ride, or splitting a taxi. BE ON TIME!
IN SUMMARY: Basic rule of thumb for all of the above expenses is to bring at least $100 cash each night. This should cover everything explained above and more of a “worse case scenario.” We do not actually expect you to spend that much, but it’s better to err on the safe side. You don’t want to get stuck at night without taxi money after all…
Saturday may be more expensive so plan for that, possibly $150. For Sunday fashion, if you plan on shopping, budget $400-$600 for a new wardrobe (this option is generally only for Los Angeles and New York City). Paying for your instructor/coach’s food or drinks is not required, but always highly appreciated.
A 6 month, interest free payment plan offered through Paypal’s Credit (previously Bill Me Later) program which is subject to credit approval. This is a great option to get free financing. Paypal offers six months same as cash (that means 0% interest and no finance charges) on purchases over $99 so a bootcamp qualifies!
Here are some quick instructions on how to sign up for a botcamp and pay using Paypal’s Credit. Please note, you must have an existing Paypal account in order to apply for this service.
For more detailed instructions, go directly to Paypal Credit itself here.
-Go to the bootcamp city page you’d like to take your program in and select your ticket. Click “Order Now” and proceed through the prompts (choosing both deposit and paying the remaining balance, or which portions of the balance you want to apply for Paypal Credit).
-After you’ve filled out your personal information, at the bottom of the page click the “Check out with Paypal” button. You will be redirected to Paypal. You can now log in to your existing Paypal account. Select Paypal Credit (previously Bill Me Later) as your payment method. A window will appear on your screen asking for your birth date and the last 4 digits of your Social Security number. Once you accept the terms, approval takes just seconds; Bill Me Later will then be added to your PayPal account automatically.
-You will then be able to complete the bootcamp payment transaction and receive an email receipt from Paypal with the terms and conditions.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The payment plan does not go through the ABCs Of Attraction. If you do not receive approval from Paypal, you are still responsible for paying the remaining balance before the start of your program.
It’s that easy! If for some reason you do not get approved for the line of credit, contact the main office at support@abcofattraction.com or call +1-323-317-2431.
