Troy Dizon Dating Review

TEDDIE’S P.I. REVIEW

Hey guys!

I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to write this review. Troy and his crew woke me up to so many things in late July that I’d found it overwhelming to write something that could do them justice. Then yesterday it hit me: I’d been thinking LINEARLY about it instead of just SPEAKING MY MIND like I normally would (and like I picked up from Troy at the beginning of the year) when I’m not putting any pressure on myself. Looking back, everything I went after without thinking too much about what order it was in always got more done in a shorter amount of time than when I’d make things too complicated. NON-LINEAR BABY! And when it comes down to it, nothing I write could ever do these guys justice. TDD is just that good.

Simply put: I GOT MY ASS HANDED TO ME.

This is what I paid for: an honest assessment of my current life situation, where I’m going with it, and what I can do NOW to improve upon it. And this is exactly what I got and more. IN SPADES.

Friday, July 24th

We meet at the Sheraton. Of the many things covered and reviewed on the first day, having Troy show me what it looks like to switch from Fun to Dominant vibes was key. Then that night we headed to Six Lounge where Troy taught me some basic skills through application and revelation. In order to show me some of the effects of LOS (Line-of-Sight), Troy had me approach a hot chick telling her I need to get some dance practice in. And there ya go: I was dancing with one of the hottest and clearly the most energetic girl on the roof. While we were dancing, Troy stealthily passed by on his phone yelling “HIGHPOINT! HIGHPOINT!” and I totally missed it! At first I couldn’t hear him and then when I realized what was going on it was overkill. At the time, I didn’t know it could happen so fast. It was the time for a slightly bigger lead or even a kiss. I had no clue. But in the end, no other guy did that. Everyone saw it. LOS was working for me. Later one of the bartenders even said she liked how I just jumped in there.

Here Troy also taught me about reading the vibe of the room, looking for where the energy flows. Upon approaching a few more groups of standing and seated women, Troy had me read the vibe of each girl to see which one wanted me the most. This was something I hadn’t looked for or thought of before either, but now it’s something I can’t help but see whenever I talk to a group of women and people in general. As the weekend went on, creating space by stepping back also became more second nature. When we went back inside, I also learned that apparently I walk like an old man! Troy had my walk across the room and back, and I couldn’t help but laugh when it was clear that no one was looking. I gotta admit it was kinda funny, but DAMN!!!!!

But then the BIGGEST lesson I learned this night… and part of me is afraid to admit it publicly… is that I outright disrespected Troy in front of a girl, making her disrespect him, and all before I even realized what had happened. Troy was ready to give me my money back and send me home! I DIDN’T KNOW! I just said something I thought was funny without any ill intentions. I didn’t know I was being a bitch! (Unfortunately, the next night in Dallas I was being a smartass again out of habit, Timmy actually noticed it and pointed it out to me, and Aaron just solidified their advice.) I had no idea it was that big a deal, but I’m glad it was brought out in the open. Turns out this was a nature of behavior I’d cultivated within my circles of guy friends for years. I grew up in harsh humor from my family and friends, and I just thought that’s how family treats each other. In my attempt to treat Troy like a “true bro” and how I talk with any of my other bros, I actually made him look bad in front of a girl. This is NOT how bros treat each other. Not QUALITY bros.

Anyway I’m jumping ahead… as later that Friday night, Troy gets a call from Aaron and gives me the option to either stay in Austin or head to Dallas to meet up with Aaron and Timmy, and I thought this was an opportunity I could not pass up!

Saturday, July 25th

Ahhh… the drive to Dallas. After hours upon hours of life lessons and what seemed to be the longest and most revealing verbal beatdown of my life, I got to meet Aaron and see what a REAL bachelor pad looks like. And I swear, from walking in, noticing the cheezily romantic curtain in the distance… to realizing it drapes over his bed in front of the sunny balcony, tapestry on the wall, candles, dimmers, a guitar, a bed in the living room with 500-thread count sheets and minimal furniture… any girl who walks into here is FUCKED. LOL! I know what I’m looking for the next time I’m in the market for a one-bedroom/ studio apartment!  Aaron also had some great, specific tips on posture and overall swagger and learning to channel your best self at all times. Since the PI, I’ve actually pinpointed how high-energy and magnetic I am with one of the jobs I enjoy doing, and I’m learning more and more about how to be that guy 24/7. It’s positively and consistently changed the way I am with my friends and how I carry myself in my other jobs as well as various social situations.

This night was more of the last. More intensive, more approaches, but also more fun. We started off at the Kona Grill (where Timmy ended up correcting me on my bad unbrotherly habit) with Happy Hour sushi, dumplings, sake bombs, more lessons, and went on to hit up some venues. By this time, creating space was second nature, and approaching women with men turned out to be fun and funny! Here you could clearly see how open and sociable it was around 10pm, and then you could see it pack more and more by the half hour. Still reading the vibes of the crowd and seeing how the energy picks up. Aaron showed me some basic dance moves that Troy showed him long ago to get him started, and now this guy’s got a style all his own. Now you wouldn’t think it at first glance… but Aaron Dan is SICK on the dance floor! SO SMOOTH. Making my ’rounds about the venue, I saw him meet and dance with a Latina chick. No words. Just feeling, touching, giving space, breaking contact, spinning, and biting.  Ya had to be there. He was late to debrief with me and Troy afterwards ’cause he was too busy setting up some dates for some frozen hot chocolate, lol! This was also the night that I realized how tight knit the TDD Brotherhood is. It made me realize how poorly my friends and I treat each other and how if it doesn’t change, I’d have to build a new crew.

Sunday, July 26th

The next morning was pretty funny. As soon as Troy gains some consciousness, the first thing that pops out of his mouth is: “Teddie you need to work on your VISION MUSCLES!” The guy just wakes up and he’s already back to work!!!!! Hahahhahahaaha!  Furthermore, it was eye-opening to learn that while my life’s meta-gameplan may be far-reaching, it was still blind. I would only go so far with a plan and then that’s it. If I’m going to make a product or DVD, what’s on the cover? What color is it? This is the same attitude I need to create my own bachelor pad as well as other decisions I make in life. What goes on the walls? What color scheme? What material of sheets, curtains? What is your blueprint? Be specific and realistic… with EVERYTHING!

The rest of the day was spent debriefing over lunch, more good times, finding an internet cafe to play “Left 4 Dead,” learning more about sexual escalation from Aaron Dan and more dance moves from Troy, and going to Gold’s Gym to workout, learn some weight training tips, and some basic Jiu-Jitsu. By this time I asked Timmy, “So you guys do this all the time?” And he’s like, “Yeah. All the time.” THIS IS WHAT LIFE SHOULD BE LIKE! What the fuck have I been doing with an employee’s mentality with too much on my plate, almost no sleep, and lots of “fake” fun? I’d just been exposed to a mere fraction of the TDD Lifestyle, and I want more of it!!!!!!!

Aftermath

Now the thing about working those “Vision Muscles” is… on these long drives between Austin and Dallas, it was blatantly obvious that the flow of my life and current schedule has been horribly inefficient. I basically hold 3 jobs as a barista, teacher, and performing musician and don’t usually get much more than 2-4 hours of sleep a night. BAD BAD BAD for my attitude and energy levels. What’s worse is that I’d been doing this for years! IT’S NO WONDER I had so little energy to keep up with these guys the entire PI. I was already in such a negative state that lots of what Troy would point out was how soft spoken and mumbly I was, not engaging, not powerful at all. All of this was confusing to me considering how different I am when I’m working on the clock and having fun! And then the mere fact that I’ve been thrown into a situation completely outside my element was more of a shock to the system. And then back at home where my overly busy schedule dominated my life… by losing so much sleep, it actually affected my attitude to the point where even my coworkers and bandmates didn’t want to be around me.

NOW WHO ELSE IN THE INDUSTRY WOULD EVER KNOW HOW TO POINT OUT SUCH INEFFICIENCIES IN THE FLOW OF YOUR LIFE???????

Now to be honest, dance clubs aren’t my cup o’tea, but it’s something I could get used to if I devoted more time to it and if it were more relevant to my niche. If nothing else but to become more aware in an arena that puts your senses on overhaul. I’m a musician by trade and the kinds of women I tend to meet aren’t really into dancing. But then again, maybe that’s why lots of them have been boring! HAHA! Since the PI the caliber of women I’ve been meeting has gone up 10-fold, and even more surprising to me is that I don’t really get nervous, even if that means stepping away from making coffee to talk to the hot girl at the condiment bar of my job while everyone else is working.  Not to mention that within the week of my PI, I could stop the hottest girl walking in a bar, make her blush, make the guy who’s BEEN trying to get in her pants for years come over and get creepy protective of her, and on my way out of the bar, she CHASES ME to give me a hug and wants me to come back to the bar sometime (I won’t). 2 weeks after my PI, I took a friend of a friend to a coffee shop for our first hangout and conversation ever, and within the next 2-3 hours she was giving me a BJ in my car (and then in her car). It was all about putting your beliefs out there in an agreeable way, switching vibes, and sensing the highpoint! A week or so later, I go to a bar with another one of my circles and end up making out with one of those girls with a handjob and tits in my face in her car as well. And there are more girls who’re waiting for me to call them to meet up (if I remember to). For some reason… this progress just doesn’t feel fast enough! But it’s still faster and more consistent than anything I’d done before.

The biggest thing I learned from Troy, Aaron, and Timmy all weekend was how quality people treat each other. How fun and good times are enjoyed without a hint of mediocrity. I never ONCE heard these guys tease each other in an overly insulting way, at the detrimental expense of one another, or in front of anyone else. Just PURE POSITIVITY! THIS is how a crew rolls, and I highly doubt there’s anyone else in this industry who can show you what it’s like to live this kind of fun, hustler’s lifestyle. I’ve also introduced my friends to “Left 4 Dead,” got the gym key to my apartment, got back into guitar for fun (I’m a drummer first), and created a much more flowing schedule that allows me to have more rest, peace, and quiet… just enough to fuel the attitude and energy necessary to live it up with my homies! REST IS SO ESSENTIAL! I’ve raised the standards of how my friends and I treat each other. I’ve found more ways to have fun and still be productive.

Mediocrity is a filthy disease. STOP THAT SHIT.

Overall, I just feel like I’m going somewhere again. What could’ve taken years to learn on my own has now been cut down to months (or even weeks), and I’m really excited to see how things turn out for me by next summer, if not the new year!

Thanks Troy, the TDD Crew, and friends!

By Adam, Texas

About me:

I’m 24, and several years out of college.  The past couple of years while trying to find a job, I’ve completely put my social life by the wayside, yet now that I have recently found my dream job I’m ready to become that social monster and ladies man that I always wanted to be.  During college I had many great friends by being the warm, friendly gentleman, yet women never really saw me as a potential romantic partner, which was one of the areas I wanted to improve during the PI.  Another huge sticking point for me was being able to have a conversation after meeting a complete stranger and not having it completely fizzle out after about a minute.

Why I Took a PI with Aaron:

I selected Aaron as my instructor because I believed his personality and style would be a great fit or mine, and that certainly was the case.  For weeks before the PI, we talked frequently over the phone, with Aaron gathering details of my life so he could customize the instruction especially to me.  He also lectured over the essential philosophies of TDD for social interactions, so that the actual time spent with him in person could be used most efficiently for instruction on non-verbal techniques.

First Night of the PI:

Our first night out I was completely blown away by what I experienced.  Now during college, I was always a house party type guy and this was my first experience in a night venue, so needless to say when I first arrived I was a little overwhelmed.  In my first interaction I approached in a half-assed way, and I was blown out.  Both Tim and Aaron pointed out that I MUST commit!  From this point, I worked on approaching with a committed vibe while working to further my conversational skills as far as possible.  At first I was having trouble leading conversations, until Aaron pointed out that I should simply concentrate on listening.  This was huge for getting “out of my head”, and in interactions afterwards I made some huge improvements.  The biggest eye-opener was having Aaron right by my side to demonstrate when my interactions started to fizzle out.  He is an absolute beast; he’s more of a natural than someone with contrived game, just a great guy with some killer techniques and non-verbals sprinkled on the side.  This is something that you can not just read about, you just have to have it revealed in the field for it to totally sink in.

Second Night of the PI:

I made huge breakthroughs Saturday night.  A big key for me was by before going out, just getting myself in a nice positive frame mind that “I was going to have fun tonight and meet some new friends.”  After going over dance game, we meet up with Troy at this bar.  After the guys demonstrate using LOS concepts, I approach a bachelorette party and the interaction just went great from there.  After chatting for a good while, I bring Aaron over yet Troy comes in and points out that there are more groups within the group that are just waiting to be approached, so I engage them and after having a great conversations, I leave on the high points.  This breakthrough was huge for me, compared to the point from where I started.  This pretty much got me over the fear I had of talking to women who are complete strangers.  After this we bounced over to a dance club, which was another first-time experience for me.  I practiced the dance-game we worked on, while also having Aaron, Tim, and Troy demonstrate.  Again, seeing these techniques in the field is huge.  Eventually, all the new experiences and the revelations I received, along with being in club environment for the first time became too much, and I felt like I hit a proverbial wall, so we headed out and for our post-night briefing.

Sunday Debrief Session:

On Sunday, Aaron synthesized everything I learned during the weekend, and most importantly, how to build it into my life.  I cannot recommend Aaron highly enough, he’s a proof that you can be more of a low-key, nice, gentleman-type guy and still have amazing success with women by using some basic TDD concepts and having a sexy edge.  Since the PI, I’ve been working on skills in baby-steps, getting into as much social situations as I can find, and I’ve made huge breakthroughs with conversations with strangers.  The next step with me is moving on to escalating interactions with women to a romantic outcome, and I’m getting there.  I would like to point out that this system is best learned by revelation in the field, and if you had ever considered taking some live instruction from TDD, even if you are a complete beginner, then trust me, TAKE THE PLUNGE AND DO IT, it is well worth the cost!

FROM PUA TO A REAL MAN

So, this my experience with Troy Dizon

Background: I am 24 years old and until last month I had never even kissed a girl. Growing up I never had any girlfriends. In fact, my friends would try to hook me up and the girls would reveal to them that I was repulsive. However, there were a few times when an occasional girl hit on me, but I was so socially stupid I couldn’t do anything about it. So, I went through jr. high, high school, and my first years of college with no girlfriend(s) and an ever decreasing number and quality of friends. Even to my family I seemed a lost cause. Then, about 2 years ago, I found the community while randomly surfing the internet. Like most people, I started with DYD. Since I didn’t know ANYTHING about socializing in general, much less women, I thought everything D.D.A. said was unquestionably true. So, I went out to the local grocery stores and busted out a couple of CNF lines fully confident they would work and for the first time in my life what came out of my mouth actually made women laugh and want to talk to me more. So, I figured the community was the real deal. I studied DYD religiously and started doing more approaches and gaining confidence. However, my success didn’t last long. My CNF and DYD teachings began pissing off everyone I came in contact with. So, I started reading MM, RSD, Pick Up 101, but still no improvement (I don’t blame them I probably wasn’t executing their teachings correctly).

Discovering Troy: Awaiting more success, I devoured the ebooks and read different seduction blogs by the end of the next week, studying and preplanning day and night. Ironically, as with my experience with DYD, everything went down hill from there. Unknowingly, I started sounding very mechanical, fake, and my calibration sunk to very low levels. However, from my past success with the method, I knew it was just me that was not executing it correctly. So a little over ½ a year later, I talked to Troy and signed up for private instruction with him. Logistics at the time did not let me sign up for the 3 day boot camp, as did some beliefs I had, so I asked Troy to come to my town (I was to pay his lodging, travel, and food expenses), which was only 3 hours away from where he lives. He agreed, which surprised me because I had never heard of a coach who did so much to help out a client. So, that said a lot about what type of guy he is. The guy was so energetic, charismatic, and just pumped me with enthusiasm. He gave me a couple of free phone coaching sessions and preps before the big day. Then it happened, I met them both and got to see the his concepts fleshed out: the powerful vibe, leading, presence, etc. I’d say the difference between reading the blogs and seeing this guy in person was the difference between night and day. I learned a ton by just watching how he carried himself, how he treated me, how he talked, body language, etc. However, I am not sure if it was because of my stage fright or because I was a plain pussy, but whatever the reason, I ended up chickening out of most approaches and had him do almost all of them to demonstrate to me.

In essence, seeing Troy in action was watching a Picasso. The guy demonstrated solid game set after set. He single handedly completely took over all sets he approached and both girls and guys loved them. To this day I have not met anyone with the same or more charisma than Troy. Just about every person he and his entourage came in contact with melted before my eyes. It was like magic. From the first set they did I knew they were the real deal. So, I just watched and soaked in as much of their energy level, vibe, the way he interacted with people, and everything I could learn from him.

Admittedly, however, I was a bit disappointed. I knew I had learned a lot and that the knowledge and experience would one day at least leak into my game, but I was frustrated that that was all I got out of a boot camp that cost me nearly $2,000. So, after much thinking (little approaching) and frustration Troy called me up about a week later to see what was up with me. That surprised me in a good way. I thought he was like the rest of the marketers who just get your money and forget about you, but by freely phone coaching me that time, he proved otherwise. He started picking my brain more and role playing with me to figure out what was so wrong with me. Within that session, he started really finding my main sticking points. Up until then he had given me 3 free phone coaching sessions so I signed up for a fourth. That one was the golden one. We role played for like an hour an identified my main sticking points that were holding me back from success, mainly too much verbiage, playing too much by the rule book which prevented me from being in the moment and interpreting situations correctly, and not listening to people. That session, coupled with reading his blogs more closely resulted in a giant leap to success. I suddenly found myself being able to actually hold more interesting conversations with people and expressing my self better. That was such a relief – to finally be able to talk to people for more than 5 minutes (lol). However, as much of a break through as that was, I still knew I was missing something. I knew I did not fully understand the stuff Troy taught me since day one, but I couldn’t figure out what. With the hunger to succeed, trying to find clarity, Troy’s phone coaching and actually implementing the game plan we had talked about, my success with people then sky rocketed to levels I couldn’t previously imagine I would ever reach. I started reading people’s social situation, meaning behind their words, voice tonality, facial expressions, body language, etc. and started having massive success with people in general. From that listening skill, I developed super charged conversations that instantly connected me to people. All these amazing social skills I didn’t even previously know I had in me came out of me without my consent. For the first time ever, I started having conversations where I didn’t even have to worry about running out of things to say and I experienced what real genuine interest, emotional connections, confidence, leading, escalation, and everything else Troy teaches really is. So, since then my task has been to just practice and hone those skills more. Right now I have 2 girlfriends but meet new women and friends all the time. It has gotten to the point where I worry more about how to get rid of extra people in my life and keep only the best than about getting. I literally had and have to get rid of women and guy friends all the time because I don’t have time for all of them!

Mainly that is my experience with Troy, but these are some of the main lessons I want you to get out of it:

Strict adherence to ebooks and rules can be one of the main obstacles to one’s social skills. They will prevent you from being in the moment and will not allow you to calibrate your unique self and the unique situations you will always find your self in.

PRIVATE INSTRUCTION WITH TROY by Kojones

To tell the truth, I was kind of freaked out about meeting Troy for the first time. I listened to his podcasts and read his posts. Some of the private instruction reviews on him scared me. I expected him to be a PUA drill sergeant (ie. “Did I teach you to do that sh*t? ! Did I?!”) I almost wanted to back out. But I’m glad I didn’t.

Turns out Troy is just a regular guy, and easy to talk to. He’s a good listener. Obviously he has keen insight into human behavior and boundless energy. My instruction was held in a pad which overlooked the bay in San Francisco. This was Troy’s friend’s place. It was private. That made it easier to talk about my goals and experiences. I was impressed that Troy’s friend (whose pad it was) was in a healthy committed relationship with a quality woman. In other words, Troy’s friends were not all player-types. That made an impression on me.

Troy talked to me about my goals, got a sense of who I was, and then started fixing me – my posture, my movements, my clothes, etc. As we prepared for night game, he drilled me on how to lead, how to kino, how to escalate, and the logistics of club game. I took tons of notes. Then I went back to my hotel to rest, and to prepare for the night ahead. I was nervous. Night game scares me.

It’s been said before that Troy is the real deal. He lives what he preaches. In the club, he did real approaches. And he didn’t just do the easy sets, either: He did the hard sets, dealing with the sh*t tests. He took a stripper by the hand, snagged her from the couch where she was sitting next to her boyfriend, and danced with her in the middle of the floor, social-proofing the room. He swung her around, grinded, and then returned her to her owner, a handsome guy who looked like he stepped out of a GQ cover. This expanded my idea of what was possible. It also taught me strategy: He danced with the eye candy and built social proof in a matter of seconds.

Some of the stuff that Troy teaches about night game you will never find in the JM ebook or anywhere else. It’s stuff that he learned through trial and error in the field. I love JM but some of the stuff won’t work in noisy club environments. It was fun walking through the club with Troy while he dissected everything going on.

Imagine walking with Morpheus through a noisy club while he freeze frames and says, “Do you see it Neo? Do you understand? This guy with the cowboy hat is about to get blown out because he is hovering and doesn’t have the balls to sit his ass down. That girl over there in the three-set is the weakest link because she’s not engaged in the conversation. And the entire room is about to become ours because the strippers are with us.” Walking through a club with Troy’s mind racing and dissecting everything in sight was an eye-opening experience for me. I’ll never look at a club in the same way anymore.

I opened a girl sitting on a couch at Troy’s suggestion and sat down next to her. She wasn’t the kind of girl I expected to meet in a club – just a down-to-earth girl from a small town in North Carolina. Later I opened a two-set that Troy had softened up earlier. Troy taught me how to properly run a two-set without a wing, which was eye-opening for me.

While on this topic, I’ll say that the PUA body of knowledge is constantly changing, as girls become socialized by so many approach artists. Girls have become wise to traditional wing tactics. Troy knows this. He blasts through the pretense of traditional pickup. How many sets have been blown because the wings always come in at the same time and always says the same stupid thing?

The most important lesson for me was learning how to lead. I moved a two-set around the venue. Later, I took a girl by the hand and led her downstairs and danced with her. It was awesome. I did Troy’s patented dance move and couldn’t believe I was doing it. I’m scared to death of free form dancing, but I actually had fun. The main thing is that I learned it is not as hard as I thought. It’s a skill that can be learned.

The next day, Troy gave me some good pointers on crib design and crib logistics. We also talked at length about Facebook design. This was big. I’d never given much thought about how my Facebook page was set up and maintained. Troy distilled this down to a science. Now I manage my Facebook page like a PR campaign.

I’m an older guy, 39. I’m interested in women, but that’s no longer the only thing. On some level, pickup is about designing a life to bring women into. Troy taught me about attracting other things into my life: quality people, business, money, etc. He talked about engineering a life that is fun 24/7, so that pickup is not just a role that you play. As you go about your life, you are the party. After sarging at the club, I hung out with Troy and his crew at a diner. Troy surrounds himself with quality guys, real guys. We swapped stories and chatted about developing skill, life lessons, adventures, and of course, women. This might sound weird, but it’s the first time I’ve ever had fun hanging out with guys.

Troy savors every moment of the day and is enthusiastic about the little things in his life (like his new iPod game) and the big things (like his LTR). This was the lesson I walked away with: how to live my life. The game can never be bigger than the way we live our lives. And the way we live our lives ultimately will determine the quality of women that are drawn to us.

RESULTS:

When I returned to my small hometown, I opened a cute Asian girl in the Laundromat, late one night. I practiced physical leading and we ended up salsa dancing while our laundry dried. A week later, I was approached by an exotic brunette in my gym who thought I was the dance instructor. I didn’t let her leave, though. I practiced physical compliance and got her to demonstrate her capoeira moves on the dance floor. Then I number closed her. Last night I found myself drinking wine in her bedroom. In two weeks I will fly to Dubai to be with my beautiful Russian babe to greet the New Year. I love this life.

I’m thankful I was able to take private instruction with Troy. Wish I could have spent more time with him. I had a lot more questions. I’ve met some amazing women this year. And I know this is just the beginning.
