What is Four Pillars Online Training?
A private online training library built around the Four Pillars Combatives self-defense curriculum. Members can follow lessons and track their progress.
What does my membership include?
Access to the four-section core curriculum, the Eskrima and MMA collections, and future core lessons. Private lessons, seminars, and in-person training are separate.
What does beta mean?
Founding Members join during the early development of the platform. Courses and features will be added over time. Specific release dates are not guaranteed.
Is there a monthly fee?
Founding Lifetime Membership is a one-time purchase with no recurring fees. The price rises at each successive founding tier. Once lifetime enrollment ends, a $35/month subscription is planned for new students. Existing lifetime members never need to subscribe to keep their access.
Is the Facebook community included?
Yes. Access to our private Facebook training community is included with a paid Online Training membership once the group launches. Students request to join through their member dashboard, and group membership is approved after verification.
What does lifetime access mean?
Access to the core online library, including future core updates, for as long as Four Pillars Combatives operates the platform.
When do I get access?
After your one-time purchase is confirmed, you can sign in to your student dashboard. Your membership also covers new core lessons as they are released.
What does VIP Founding Membership include?
VIP includes everything in the standard lifetime core training membership plus four 60-minute online coaching sessions (to be used within 12 months of purchase), personalized training guidance, quarterly VIP group Q&A sessions during the first 24 months, priority booking subject to availability, a 10% discount on eligible in-person seminars and a permanent VIP Founding Member badge in the student dashboard and access to the separate private VIP discussion group. Sessions are requested through our contact page and scheduled by mutual availability. VIP founding enrollment is limited and prices increase at later VIP tiers.
How does VIP-only written Q&A work?
VIP members join a separate private Facebook discussion group after membership verification. Once each quarter, a text-based question thread opens for VIP members; questions and the instructor's written answers remain available in the group. No camera, live video, or Zoom call is required. The quarterly benefit applies during the first 24 months of VIP membership.
Is this training beginner-friendly?
Yes. Four Pillars Combatives Online Training is designed for beginners and experienced practitioners alike. Lessons start with fundamental concepts and progressively build toward more advanced skills. No prior martial arts, self-defense, or firearms experience is required.
How do I get started?
Explore the curriculum and create a free student account. Creating an account does not reserve a paid membership or unlock paid lessons; any lessons marked free for registered students will be available to you. Founding Lifetime Membership purchases become available when paid enrollment opens, at the current tier price. Prices increase with later tiers.
Are purchases refundable?
The Founding Membership is a one-time purchase that provides lifetime access to the core online training library, including future additions. All purchases are final. If you have questions about the membership or what is included during beta access, please contact us before purchasing.
