A private online training library built around the Four Pillars Combatives self-defense curriculum. Members can follow lessons and track their progress.

Free students can view published lessons marked free, track progress, and use Events & Seminars, Private Messaging, and Find Training Partners in the Community Hub. Messaging and training-partner discovery are opt-in. Instructor-assigned Members receive only the training sections and Community features their instructor enables. Founding Lifetime Members have access to the core training library, including future core lessons, and VIP Founding Members receive additional VIP benefits. Your signed-in dashboard shows what is available to your account. Private lessons, event bookings, seminars, and in-person training are separate.

Founding Members join during the early development of the platform. Courses and features will be added over time. Specific release dates are not guaranteed.

Founding Lifetime Membership is a one-time purchase with no recurring fees. The price rises at each successive founding tier. Subscription plans and pricing may be offered later, but no monthly enrollment or price is currently being advertised. Existing lifetime members never need to subscribe to keep their access.

Free accounts include Events & Seminars (view and express interest), Private Messaging (with opted-in members), and Find Training Partners (opt-in and general-area discovery). Founding and VIP memberships include standard member Community access, and VIP adds exclusive discussion spaces. Instructor-assigned Member accounts see only the features enabled by their instructor. Only features available to you appear after sign-in. The separate Facebook group is for verified paid members only.

Create a free student account to open any published free lessons. Instructor-assigned Members get their selected training sections after their instructor saves the assignment. Founding and VIP lifetime training access begins after a confirmed one-time purchase. New lessons are added as they are published during public beta.

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 written Q&A discussion threads for 24 months, priority booking subject to availability, a 10% discount on eligible in-person seminars and a permanent VIP Founding Member badge and access to the members-only VIP Lounge and VIP Written Q&A forum. Sessions are requested through our contact page and scheduled by mutual availability. VIP founding enrollment is limited and prices increase at later VIP tiers.

Verified VIP members can use the exclusive VIP Written Q&A forum in their online member community. Quarterly text-based question threads and the instructor's written answers remain available to members. No camera, live video, or Zoom call is required. The written Q&A submission benefit lasts 24 months after VIP enrollment.

Yes. While signed in, your video position saves automatically during playback and when you pause. Open the lesson again to resume at the saved time, including on another device. You can choose Start over whenever you want. Video viewing does not automatically mark a lesson complete.

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 are available when enrollment is open, at the current tier price. Prices increase with later tiers.
