I went to this workshop EAC because my cousin invited me to go. I went the first day which started at 6:30 at the Marriott hotel in Woodland Hills California. As soon as Sam opened his mouth and every other word was f--k this f--k that. I New this was not for me but I decided to stay for my nephew who was one of the robot staff. Sam was pushing a lot of garbage and he is good about drawing these vulnerable people right into his trap. The first day ended at 1:00 am and the way they ended it was by meditation:hypnotherapy So I went back for the second day and it was another day filled with shoving some crap down your throats and giving us the rules for the rest of the workshop. No cell phones no eating signs for asking to go to the bathroom to get water and to get a tissue. If you needed to go to the bathroom you give the sign and one of the staff members follow you and then walk you back. The second day was more speaking in circles by Sam. Anyone that questioned him was shut down immediately. He called someone a camel jockey he told a young black girl that "when you go black you never go back etc. we had all just come back from a dinner brake and sat down and Sam started in again with his brainwashing. A few people said they had breakthroughs and we had to listen to them. One girl was crying and asked for help and Sam handed a microphone to her and she proceeded to tell all of us that she had gotten rapped and she felt she wasn't worth anything any more and didn't care what she did and Sam told her it was her fault and made light of it. He then asked how old she was and she said 17 That was my breaking point. I left but not before I could give that young girl a hug. This company and Sam needs to stopped.
After my original review was removes from Yelp, likely because the owner, Ariya Malek, paid to have it removed, I decided to do my part to warn people about wasting their money on this scam therapy pyramid scheme. There are 5 classes, they costs thousands ewch, they're full of completely desperate and lost people looking for a miracle cure. What they get is an instructor who gets off on profanity, racial slurs (calles one guy a c***k with narrow eyes and another girl a Mexican who keeps popping out babies as a teen) sleep deprivation, classes run from 10 am to 1 am with no scheduled food breaks...only when the instructor feels like letting you out. The most fascinating part was having peer pressuring the entire class to put their heads in the toilet of the LAX Hilton and flush while yelling I am worthy ... (one would think that's an oxymoron, but hey, they're the professionals right?! Once everyone was berated and degraded to the instructors liking, then they all hug and listen to silly music, dance and stare into each other's eyes to incite some emotion. At one point they had us close our eyes and pretend we were clicking out inner child into car seats and waving goodbye to them...it was all so childish and silly and some incredibly damaged peiple were bawling at the top of their lungs...there were moments I wanted to actually laugh and other times I felt like I had a insiders view I to a psych ward. The entire 4 days were has dropping...and not in a good way. The staff, all former students look like they have had lobotomies...they don't look at you, speak to you or shoe any emotion besides bowing down to the coach. To say this is a cult is an understatement. But hey, if you have a couple thousand bucks to throw away...go see for yourself. It's a fabulous s*hit show of the most amazing train wreck of nutjobs you've ever seen. Just know you can't take your own water, have to ask for permission to go potty and need to be escorted by one of the brain dead staff members each time. By the time you get home at 2 am each night, you'll wish you and your inner child were dead. Enjoy!
This is run by a group on neer do wells. They believe they are super powers and they suck the life out of you. They harass you into believing that you are not a worthy person.
They beat you down until you no longer want to function.
They keep asking you what was wrong with your life.
Oh you moved so much, that makes you unstable, that's why you are the way you are. You were never grounded. They twist everything around. The weak get weaker. If you are a semi strong person, you get to leave and hope you never see there faces again.
I pray that it will get shut down.
Sam owned it, he says that he had to give up ownership because he had too much on his plate. Right? He was being sued so he says Ari owns it now. Ari is just a robot for Sam.
Please do not get sucked into there modern day witchery.

If you choose to attend these expensive seminars, prepare to be bullied, hear non stop racial slurs and profanity because they childishly think this will shock or surprise you into an 'awakening, or transformation'. He told a Mexican girl who had two children at a young age...well no wonder, you guys keep popping them out, and you dont care about them, just give them up for adoption!
The methods are almost dangerous, the resulting behavior is to end up like the staff members who devote their time to voulunteering after taking the classes themselves. They are all unifromly braindead. They look and sound utterly stupid, with a fake smile on thier faces and theat voice like you're trying to sell snake oil. The entire time they are not allowed to look students in the eyes, comunicate or show emotion...until the time they have to push the next level class...then all the sudden they become like telemarketers who will not give up.
Make sure you research this place well...you will regret throwing your money down the drain. But you'll me making Ariya Malek very rich.
