Sparks of Attraction Live Training    Compare

Okay, so I've waited from September until January to write this, because I wanted to be able to give a true statement of how going to Austin for a weekend with Nick would affect my life in the long term. A little background. I'm a 39 year old divorced father of 2, and I live in Sioux Falls, SD. I was in a less than ideal marriage, because for most of my life, I felt as though I didn't have a choice as to what kind of women I had in my life, so I stayed where I thought it was safe. It wasn't. After my divorce, I wanted to find a healthy relationship with an extraordinary woman, and I wanted to be able to enjoy the journey of searching for that person. I wanted to do that by being the most confident and authentic version of myself that I could be. Part of my motivation was for my own happiness, and part of it was to be an example of a confident man for my daughters. I did my homework before deciding to approach Nick, and my reason for choosing to work with him was that I could truly sense that his goals for his students are positive and healthy.

As for the weekend, I really enjoyed it, and feel very fortunate to have met some terrific people. In that, I mean both my fellow students, who are a great group of men, and also Nick and his team of coaches. Everyone involved was intelligent, unique, and brought their own set of insights. The activities we did were eye opening, and the nights out were a lot of fun. I learned a lot about myself, an didn't go home without dancing with and kissing a Texas girl!

After coming home, I had some roadblocks that I actually now see as evidence that Nick's training truly was life changing. You see, I had a couple of bad panic attacks in late October, the second of which landed me in the hospital. A very wise friend of mine told me that the reason for me having this happen was that I had finally realized that I could no longer go through life without showing the real me to the world, and that I was finally strong enough to face that down. I've come to believe that this is true. Since facing that issue, and taking steps to improve my emotional health, I've found that my real personality has truly come out, and Nick's training has had a chance to shine. Nick teaches foundational principles of human connection, and I've found that with these in place, other things fall into place, but without these skills, no amount of style changes, game, or anything else will really allow you to successfully put yourself out there.

So, for results, here's a rundown. I've been able to go through several very successful job interviews at my company that have allowed me to advance in my career, and I know the confidence to do this has a lot to do with my weekend in Austin. As for dating, I've suddenly found myself seemingly able to connect with women who I never dreamed I'd be able to, and that confidence just seems to snowball. As I sit here, I can honestly say that there are at least 8-10 women who want me in their life, and several are actively pursuing me. I've had 2 of them actually offer to have a threesome with me (maybe I should introduce them to each other....). I slept with 2 different women in the same night once. Not at the same time, but I digress! I've currently found a woman that I really like, and have been seeing her, but have found myself noticing women frequently that show signs of interest in me, so I feel able to say that, whenever I do choose to be in a relationship, it will be with a woman that I'm inspired to be with! I can also say that I've done all of this while being honest, and without compromising my integrity. I actually TOLD one of my previous partners about the night I mentioned above, and she then became one of the ones to offer a threesome! What I've found is that authentically connecting with other people, including women, makes you a better and happier person, and that's what I want to share with the world!

I attended Nick Sparks' Live Training course in Austin back in June '17. I'm glad Nick has a vetting process in place to make sure that what he teaches is going to be beneficial for his potential students--I've worked with other coaches in the past that didn't do that. This showed to me that he cares about his students--and this showed while I was in person at the training.

For me, the most impactful part of the training was the in-class sessions. The concepts were clearly, concisely taught with instant application of the concepts with the female instructors. Learning the concepts from Nick and being able to interact with the female instructors within a safe environment helped bring out new depths and dimensions to the concepts/skills that I hadn’t previously appreciated. I particularly enjoyed the instantaneous feedback I received from all of the female instructors--this helped me accelerate internalizing the concepts the most.

The sessions at night helped me further put the concepts learned during the in-class sessions into practice, and it was the excellent energy, support, and instruction from Nick and the female instructors. I found their tips and, more importantly, their constant encouragement priceless.

I firmly believe that if you are serious about making a change in your life, then you must attend Nick Sparks' Live Training course. I am forever deeply thankful to Nick and the female instructors for sharing their insights and feedback.

Hi Value for your money is a 9. For some reason I cannot click on the Value for your money rating. It's a bit expensive, but it's fair for what you get.

Nick Sparks' Sparks of Attraction coaching is a life changing experience. Nick places an emphasis on being yourself, letting go of your insecurities, and strengthening communication skills. This was my first time taking a formal coaching class. I took the weekend class in Austin, Texas, and loved it!

Nick is friendly, charismatic and provides great constructive criticism. I really benefitted from his class, and made some new friends while I was there. During the day, we did exercises with his female associates to establish a foundation. Then at night we went out in Austin (which is a great city to visit) and practiced what we learned. Nick is well prepared with material, and provides helpful guidance throughout the entire weekend. He pushes you to go outside your comfort zone, and the benefits are immeasurable.

Before taking this course, I always felt like I could get more out of my love life. I was disappointed, therefore, I decided to get some help. I am completely satisfied with my decision and would recommend this course to anyone looking to improve their relationships with women, and other people in general. It is not easy to do, but if you remember your training, you will get better at making new friends, appreciating other people, and just get more out of life.

The best part about this course is that it is not about becoming someone you are not. On the contrary it is about becoming more comfortable with yourself. This course not only improved my love life significantly and immediately, but has also made me a better human being. I hope you choose to take this course. You will not regret it!

This course can seriously change your life and taking it is one of the best decisions I've ever made.

If you want to get in shape, hire a personal trainer. If you want to get better grades, hire a tutor. If you want to improve your relationships with women, hire Nick Sparks.

As for the course itself, you practice different drills during the day with female coaches under Nick's instruction, and then apply them at night. At first, I wasn't sure if the drills would translate into real life, but as soon as I went out that first night, I got pretty great feedback, which only got better the next night. The results speak for themselves.

As for specific improvements, I went from being neurotic and "in my head," to much more present and "in the moment." So much of this course is about turning off the negative voices in your head, and it was incredibly helpful for me. Second, the course totally reframed how I look at rejection. Before, I was usually scared to approach women I found attractive for fear of rejection, but Nick turns this fear around (just make sure he tells you the parable of the two farmers). Nick will get you talking to EVERYONE, and by the time you see a really attractive woman, it's simply a reflex to say something. Third, the course de-mystified the attraction process and showed me that it's a tangible feeling/energy/physical sensation, and now I'm much better at creating and identifying that feeling.

Overall, take this course. Your only regret will be that you didn't do so sooner.

Nick teaches the foundations of REAL connections between people. No PUA lines, scripts or "moves." Nick teaches how to connect as human beings - deeper and more powerful than words could ever be. It's about building the energy between people before words ever come into play, and that makes your words flow and resonate the way you want them to. I felt an immediate shift in the way women responded to me, have noticed that women open up and connect with me much faster now, and I'm having even more fun and less anxiety around meeting and developing sexual connections with women. If you're looking to step up your game - your REAL game - do yourself a favor and work with Nick.

I am a graduate of Nick Sparks’ weekend live coaching program. And it works. Trust me, I’m living proof of that. But it will only work if you do what Nick says. Not just for the weekend, but every day. Like, for the rest of your life. It is a commitment, and for at least a little while, it isn’t easy. But it’s the best thing you could ever do for yourself.

If there’s one thing I know for certain after working with Nick, it’s that most dating advice (or “how-to-finally-get-laid” advice) puts the cart before the horse. They might teach you words to say, words not to say, behaviors to adopt, counter-intuitive insights into the opposite sex, and all kinds of things that may make you marginally better with women and help you to not be a completely clueless pushover, but still don’t get to the true heart of the matter, the most important elements you need to cultivate in yourself. It’s still building a house on a foundation of sand.

Nick will give you the solid, cement foundation you need on which to build everything else. He will teach you how to change your state of being. And from that, everything else you want will follow. But again, you HAVE to do what he says.

When I came to Nick, I was recently divorced and having a very hard time connecting with women. I had literally gone on over ten first dates, and never got a second. Not once. The dates were all quite pleasant, with conversation flowing freely and both of us enjoying each other’s company. I even made out with some of them at the end of the date. But while they all liked me as a person, all of them—unanimously—only wanted to see me again in a platonic way. I didn’t know what was going on or what I was doing incorrectly. I truly believed that something must be fundamentally wrong with me, and I had no idea what it was.

When I talked to Nick on the phone, he assured me I was not alone, I was in good hands, he knew exactly what was going on and how to fix it, and that after returning home from his workshop, I would be a “Tinder Terror.” I would be unstoppable. It sounded too good to be true.

My biggest fear was spending the money, taking the workshop, getting all my hopes up, then returning home, going on another bunch of first dates, and having the same thing happen. I would have to resign myself to being that same lonely, frustrated guy forever. The fear of feeling that hopelessness was very real. But somehow, there was something about Nick that I just trusted. I’m very much a realist—I always think “snake oil” when I see ads that say things like “Say these five words to make any woman do whatever you want!” Most of that stuff is clearly created by douchebags for douchebags (just try being married, guys!). It’s pretty much the same game as faith healers. The reason they’re so successful is because their target customers are in a very emotionally vulnerable place and desperate for a solution.
The cynical part of me said that Nick was probably just another one of these repackaged faith healers. But watching Nick’s videos, there was just something about him that was so insightful and down-to-earth. His revelations about sexual chemistry were like nothing I’d ever heard before, and it was clearly based in sincere curiosity and fascination. He didn’t see women as opponents that you needed to out-think and out-maneuver until you got what you wanted from them. I thought, here was a guy who lived on planet earth and genuinely wanted to help people connect and find happiness, not demean women and sell snake oil. So, I took a shot and signed up for the course. It was the best decision I ever made (or maybe the second-best, behind getting divorced :) ).

I won’t go into what Nick teaches you over the weekend (it’s his bread and butter after all), but I guarantee you, if you’re reading this, there are mental habits and processes—neural pathways that your thoughts go through—that you don’t even know exist. These pathways sabotage your interactions with yourself and the opposite sex, and cause you to involuntarily think thoughts and feel feelings that are counter-productive to connecting with others and creating sexual chemistry. But right now, you don’t know what they are. And it’s not your fault that these pathways are there. Believe me, that was one of my biggest sticking points. I’m always the first one to declare that you’re responsible for your actions, not your parents or your peers or society, etc. But as you’ll learn if you work with Nick, these pathways have been constructed without your knowledge or permission since you were in diapers. But you can change them. You can re-route them, the same way you can lose weight or build muscle or learn a martial art or learn to play a musical instrument. You can cultivate a new state of mind, free of the fear and insecurity that’s held you back your whole life. If, and only if, you DO WHAT NICK SAYS.

I soon went on my first date since attending Nick’s workshop. I was sleeping with her two days later. Then I went on another date with another woman. And another. And another. I’m now seeing multiple women at once (which brings on a whole new set of problems in your life, but definitely better problems to have!). I’m seeing the entire world anew, in a way I can’t explain here because it’s something you have to experience to truly understand. But I can tell you that in my social interactions, I don’t worry about what to say or do, I don’t worry about what I just said or did, and I enjoy the moment, whatever it may be. And all I’m doing is what Nick taught me.

Go take the course. Do whatever Nick says. Ask all the questions you need to. He’ll answer them. On the last day, Nick will give you a game plan, written down, to follow when you get home. Read this every day. Put it on your phone. Read it in the can. In every interaction you have with every person you encounter, male and female, practice the things Nick teaches. Keep reading Nick’s book. Read at least a chapter before going to sleep at night. When you finish the book, go right back to page one and re-read it. It’s a very quick and easy read. Do this until you get to where you want to be (and don’t forget the articles on his site. Keep reading those too. That’s great stuff as well). It WILL happen for you. Trust me.
You may have to face some hard, painful truths about yourself along the way. I know I did. You will probably screw up along the way. You might be embarrassed. You might be kicking yourself. You’ll probably question yourself a lot and wonder if you’re doing anything right at all. You might get THIS close to success and then make one wrong move see it all crumble away. That’s a really shitty feeling, believe me. But you have to keep going. This stuff runs deep. Clearing it out isn’t easy. But only you can do it. It’s like being in a jungle of weeds and thorns and brush with no path to walk. Nick will give you the machete. But you have to forge your way through. Most people won’t even consider beginning a journey like this, because of what they’re afraid they’ll find and the emotions they’ll have to feel. But if you’re reading this, you’re at least considering it, so hats off to you! As someone who persevered and came out the other end, believe me when I say it’s worth it.

I want every man on earth to get to where I am right now. I wish that the things Nick teaches were taught in public schools. I can’t begin to imagine how much happier so many people could be. But since our culture isn’t ready for that, you have to go learn from the man himself. So please, for your own sake, and for the sake of all the people in your life, the ones you know and the ones you’ll meet in the future, go take Nick’s course. And DO. WHAT. THE. F*&#. NICK. SAYS! You’re welcome. :)

I've followed Nick's work for a while, and just reading his book a few times was a game changer for me. When the opportunity to do the workshop presented itself, I leapt on it.

The best and worst dating advice ever received is 'just be yourself' - because it is the most important and also the hardest for most of us to understand. What Nick does, in a nutshell, is teach you how to be totally cool just being yourself. I can't tell you how refreshing it is after years of being peppered with pathetic openers, lines, routines, and whatever else - to just know that actually the sexiest most attractive thing about me is me.

I can't quite put into words what a gift it is not having to think about something clever to say, to just connect to people I feel inspired to connect to, and to know that in seconds of meeting someone I can form a deeper bond than most people can form after weeks and months. Yeah, it's about learning how to connect to women - but truthfully I don't even have time to follow up with all the amazing women I've connected to in the weeks following the program. Dates in multiple cities with gorgeous girls from multiple countries that are doing inspiring things with their lives, well that's just kind of my reality now.

It's also been a game changer in work - I am absolutely crushing it in my career and social life too. Human connectivity is what it is all about. All at the same time, Nick teaches you how to be totally fearless and also so self-accepting that you can just roll with whatever life throws you.

And the best part - its all experiential. I have three sentences jotted down from the weekend in case I need a reminder, but the whole thing is built so that you leave transformed, not needing to review endless notes and study. Do it man!

Nick is a highly charismatic and inspirational man. I flew half way around the world to attend his course. He has a way of identifying people's strengths, helping to capitalise on them, while dispelling insecurities and self doubt. When Nick talks to you, you feel good about yourself.

It's not so much what happens at night while you're there, but what you take away from the daytime sessions that is so important. There are no pickup lines, routines or gimmicks. Instead, there is a focus on inner re-wiring of your brain. Achieving a self-belief, an anchor, an honesty that transcends what words you actually say.

The day sessions were deeply moving. Nick's female assistants are exceptional. Dynamite to interact with, yet compassionate to the core.

There was a one to one ratio of staff to participants - very impressive.

Our group of five participants were so moved by the course and the connection to everyone and each other, that we started a whatsapp group to stay in touch and enjoy each other's progress as we move on in life.

As for me? I found a lot of people in the evenings who were not in the right place to interact with me. But I also found a girl who was. I went on a date with her in the few hours I had spare between our final session with Nick and my fight home. She wants me to come back to Austin...

Does that sound like a positive review? ;-)

Going to a coaching event you never really know what to expect. Having spoken to Nick on the phone during the intake and selection process, I was impressed by his candor and demeanor, but that really did not prepare me for what I would experience during the live training. What I will say is that this training will change you on a fundamental level IF you are in the right head and heart space for it.

This is not traditional PUA training based on coming up with lines to say or "getting" girls (which, frankly, wasn't what I was looking for). This training is based on human connection and getting the fuck out of your own way (more on this later). I decided on this program because I needed a catalyst. I knew I needed that push to get me going in the right direction. I showed up, Nick delivered.

The first day there while going through conversation drills I got stuck. I froze and had a complete block. Nick ran through some improv material with me, then I took a few steps back. After some deep breaths and shaking it off, I was able to step back in and continue. Later, during the night training, I hit another wall. I was supposed to notice and go talk to 3 people about something interesting in a crowded bar laden area of town. I wasn't able to complete the assignment I was so frozen. After pulling me aside to speak, he then took us into a bar. Pointing out a game in the corner, he had to literally (physically) push me into talking to a group. At that point, I didn't have a choice but to react go with it, but you know what happened? They responded openly and I ended up playing Jenga with a girl in that group. There was the shift I needed.

After the training the next day, we all went out for "infield" training. While at a packed bar, Nick noticed some girls wearing the same t-shirts and suggested one of us go see what that was all about. I was able to walk right up and start a conversation almost completely at ease! I'm pretty sure I spoke to almost every girl in that bar before we left as well as getting offered a phone number! We then left to go to another place with a completely different vibe to it. The groups there were more closed and less open to conversation. We ended up starting a conversation with a group that was looking to go dancing, so we all left together. We then had great conversations and danced until the end of the night.

The next day after training, I struck up conversations with two women at brunch, a few others while waiting in line at the airport. I currently have a date scheduled for Sunday (less than a week later) and have started numerous conversations. I'm catching women glancing at me out of the corner of my eye. It's an amazing feeling.

I cannot say enough about the quality of this program, but as I mentioned before, you need to be in the right head space and heart space to get the most from the training. What I mean by that is that the training is given with the underlying respect and love for women that Nick has. The women in the program are absolutely top notch, intuitive, intelligent and honest and whom I can't say enough good things about. If you're trying to decide whom to train with or you're on the fence about training with Nick, give yourself this gift. You will thank yourself for it.

Nick Sparks is the real deal. You've heard about him from YouTube videos, and The Social Man products, and read his book. I can tell you that I was very curious how it would be actually going to a workshop...whether it would truly truly be worth it.

Well, I found out Nick is completely genuine and completely congruent with what he teaches. He is completely into making sure you reach your goals and realize/see your potential at play. Realize how you're really at levels way higher than you think, if only you stop doing the wrong things, and practice to maintain the right mindset.

By mindset, I don't mean some logical one you can just repeat to yourself. I mean being in your body and completely connected with others and with your feelings. Throughout the program, I would start going in my head again and worrying about what was going to come next. He would pull me aside and connect with me and take me back to the place I needed to be.

And let me tell you, when I was connected like that, things I said would just hit. In a way I was NOT used!

Also, a note on the women he brought in to practice with us. These were not come random girls there to act nice to us, get validated, and make some quick cash. These were extremely genuine, attractive, high-quality women that were also there with only the one goal of helping the men in the group become better. They gave honest feedback and the practice learning to connect with them in the moment was absolutely priceless.

This was not practicing techniques. This was practicing finding the place where if you're coming from there, you're acting as your true confident self. It's like I'm communicating with attractive women the way I always imagined it was like prior to going to college and being slapped with the reality that women would not respond to me like I thought they would. That's were all these bad patterns started and it's really fucking hard to let go. But it feels so right when you do.

My mind was continuously blown as I got good responses from women I was not used to getting them from, from "cold approaching". I told him one of the days, that I keep having all these ideas of what is possible and not and he just keeps shattering them for me.

I'm writing this review because I truly want other guys to experience the same. I wish there were more Nick Sparks clones to go around so he could help everyone.

Also, note: I waited about 7 months after the workshop to write this review. I always doubt testimonials/reviews given immediately after a workshop. It's often just seminar high. But I still believe every word I believed then. And he gives you packets to write things out in, so that days/weeks/months/years from now you can come back to those same realizations/feelings/breakthroughs you had during the workshop if for some reason life got the best of you and you weren't able to upkeep the mindsets. This was extremely helpful for me.

I don't know if this thing will let me receive emails, but I'd be happy to reply to any questions. This is my way of showing gratitude. And there was no compensation whatsoever for this.
