Landmark

While I’m still disappointed with the process, I was contacted by a landmark representative and given a refund. It’s unfortunate it took a bad review to get a response especially when the intentions was just to be rescheduled.

Please, stay away!!! It’s a scam. They take advantage of hard working people, and on top of that, humiliate them by having them take part of completely useless, shameful and at times even disgusting exercises that are senseless and pointless to self improvements. It took me a year to write this review because I wanted to make sure that I could positively understand my experience at this place. it has been a year now since my horrible experience and I’m still scarred by what they put me through. They should be shut down. They are just looking for your money and to recruit more people to them.

Great stuff, great education, great technology to take your life to the next level. This is designed for people for a drive for success, non complainers and bratty people. If your someone that is a weenie, don’t come. This is for people for a drive for a next level in life.

3 stars because I subscribe to the philosophy they are teaching (i.e. Positive psychology etc).
These concepts were not new to me but I was hoping to take this course as a refresher and maybe have that «aha» moment everyone talks about. Well, I stuck with it till the last moment and even attended their seminars for several weeks but my «aha» moment never came. I can’t say it was a complete waste of time and money but I’m not sure it was worth it either. My life is as great as it was before the forum. All in all, I was really annoyed and disillusioned with their manipulative tactics to recruit people in your life. It was a huge turn off for me and completely ruined anything good I was able to get from it. I can’t stress enough that 80% of the forum is about getting people to enroll and recruit others. I know it’s a business and I wouldn’t mind if they were just «authentic» about their intentions. Their approach is really shady and made me very uncomfortable. It made the whole experience feel like a scam. I was also annoyed by the language. It was pretentious and at times even degrading. They try to make you feel bad about yourself.
Anyway, I did not recommend this course to anyone in my life. I honestly do not think it’s for everyone. That said, I know it has helped many people so I can’t say it’s all bad (hence the 3 stars).

For those who actually stay all 3 days to complete the course, it’s amazing! I started my own business, created the love of my life, paid off 30K in debt, and reconnected with my father whom I hadn’t spoke to in 6 years all from the tools they give you. Everything in my life is awesome because I took this coourse! Take it there’s nothing to lose!
You get to start being responsible for creating and causing greatness in every area of your life! They empower you and give you some awesome tools to do this!

Not all worthwhile journeys are a cruising cake walk; but often times, it ends up being the best diversion taken when you return to unpack your luggage.

Couldn’t have been more skeptical. Couldn’t have been more happy with the results. Utterly changed my view of the world and my role in it. Thank you Landmark!

Zero stars I called looking for help told them my story they refused to let me take their course DO NOT GO HERE they were very unsympathetic to my issues I even spoke to the manager Jerry this place is a joke don’t take their course

Changed my life! be open minded. The space that you are in when you come in to do it, is what you get out of it.

IMO — Waste of money, waste of time hosted by extremely rude and forcefully pushy and superior acting employees. It’s a cult-​like atmosphere that forces long hours over repeated days resulting in a brainwashing-​type scenario. There are some good personal growth tidbit takeaways but nothing you can’t get from watching Dr. Phil or reading a book from The Dali Lama.

I took landmark a couple years ago and my life was transformed as a result. My health, relationships, happiness, love, peace, logic — everything has been elevated to a new level as a result of Landmark.
There is a review below me by a person named «Terry S» who bashes Landmark and promotes a group called MITT. I have a friend who did MITT and ended up extremely suicidal as a result. I’ve heard other horror stories arising from MITT.
Landmark will change your life. Keep in mind, it is a business — they want to make money. As long as you have a backbone, you will have no problem taking as many or as little classes as you’d like. The thing is, the services Landmark offers, will transform your life.

One of my closest friends recently recommended me to attend Landmark because of its «empowering conversations» Unfortunately, I was strongly disappointed.
On the first day of the forum, the leader of the forum, Jenn, talked about, what she says, 5% of the information we will be learning for the next three days for seven hours, and according to her, «The first day is the hardest day, it gets easier after!» My question is, how is it the hardest day if we only learn 5% of the information we will be learning in total? In addition, she was EXTREMELY rude, to the people working and attending the forum. She would constantly roll her eyes at simple mistakes, and discourage you that, «You aren’t participating.»
Secondly, if you weren’t giving them what they wanted, which was of course loads of personal information about yourself, you were called either «fake» or «breaking your promise of the forum» This makes me laugh. I left after the first day, I couldn’t handle sitting in a chair for seven hours listening to other people’s problems, in which 95% of the problems were about having a bad relationship with their sibling.
All in all, let me tell you what you’re getting, you sit in a chair for seven hours, listening to a white housewife give you advice, for $ 600. I left after the first day, they promised me a refund, but according to some of the reviews seen I have read, they did not give people refunds, but instead they made them feel terrible about themselves.
If you’re the type of person that likes paying $ 600 to sit in a chair for seven dollars, then this is the place for you. Have fun!

I am just back from the free introductory class. It great! A very good friend took took me there. I’m so happy he did.
I signed up for the Forum, and can’t wait for that!
Seems like it’s a very powerful, life changing experience. At least a few of my friends, that have been through it, the have all más some wonderful changes in their life’s with the program.
I’ll update this after I finish the program in July.

I first participated with Landmark 35 years ago… seems like it was only last week. I consider it the best gift I ever gave myself… I’m still on fire about it. The weekend is the most loving and life giving gift one can give to themselves. The Forum kicks major ass.
Two thumbs up. WAY UP!

I took The Forum and Advanced about five years ago and got great results in my life, such as improved relationships, better income and performance at work. I highly recommend it to anyone. Their marketing can rub some people the wrong way but the organization choose to only do word of mouth so it makes sense from that point of view. Over 2 million people have taken it worldwide and almost every single person did it because someone close to them told them about it, which is proof that it benefits people.
There are a few really negative reviews on Unilocal.Here is why — your get results by taking a hard look at yourself and your actions. Some people really don’t like what they see, leave the course and write negative reviews.

I took the Landmark Forum, Advanced Course, Introduction and Leadership Program, 3 courses for life curricumlum in 2010 –2011 in Bangkok Thailand. I also finished Self Expression and Leadership Program in 2013 and 4 – 5 seminar. After the Landmark Forum, I’ve got my family back, my father & mother & 2sisters completed the forum, we always empower each other. My life is totally changed, I live in empowering context and create empowering conversation. I do love Landmark Education.

Life changing.
With the tools and the knowledge learned taking the courses at Landmark, I am a more responsible, compassionate and successful person in all areas of my life.

I took the Forum in 2008, I believe, then completed a whole slew of other courses– the full Curriculum for Living (Forum, Advanced Course, Self-​Expression and Leadership Program), 2 Communication Courses, a handful of seminars, and even continued by coaching the Self-​Expression and Leadership Program! I then decided to go further and start leading courses, so I took the required Introduction Leaders Program (ILP).
I will say that my life changed completely through the Forum and every other full course I did or coached. I learned skills and approaches that have served me throughout my life since then, and many things shifted for me. Lots of positive results.
However, the seminars were mostly a waste of time. They’re essentially remedial, weaker versions of the Forum, and almost nothing happens in each session. They’re like a church club, where all attendees have something in common and have an excuse to meet once a week and talk about their problems. Sure, it’s cheaper than therapy, but not my cup of tea.
Then there’s the ILP. The further I got into this 6 – 7 month course (and the more required volunteer hours I put in at the office– though we’re told to not call it «volunteering», we are telemarketing for Landmark for free and being evaluated on the number of conversions we make), the more I saw behind the curtain. Basically, my experience comes down to this: the Landmark Forum is like Nike Air Jordans. It’s a product that is great for its purpose, isn’t necessarily for everyone (hey, you might like Adidas instead if they fit you better), but is ultimately made on the backs of people who legitimately suffer during that process and are not paid fair wages. I’m talking about the office staff, not the volunteers.
Anyway, I eventually removed myself from all contact lists during the ILP except those directly related to my course, but this request was ignored dozens of times. I emailed, called, and asked in person to have my name and number removed, but I got so many calls still that I ended up filing not one but THREE official reports with the FCC.
And yes, I finished the course– though this time, the only thing I got out of the course was a huge reality check and a large dose of disillusionment.
So– can one ethically keep buying or recommending Air Jordans knowing both their source and their potential results? Not sure. Take what you will from this. I personally haven’t been back.

HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND!
I was coerced, pressured, harrased by Antonia Limon from this Landmark organization to attend. Even after cancellation was supposed to credit back to my account, it was reversed, then again charged back to me. I have called and emailed, as of today, I am in their reoccuring $ 200.00 fee nightmare! I had to file a police report with our local authority, hopefully this Landmark organization will cease from these repeat charges occuring on my account.
UPDATED 11/​17/​2014: Spoke to Alyssa B from Landmark, refund promise on 11/​11/​2014. As of today 11/​17/​2014 still NO refund. Now seeking legal advice from my attorney.

RE: Letter of Demand
Dear Landmark Education:
I have made many many requests to Landmark for issuance of refund to me; request made on August 9, 2014, August 21, 2014, August 26, 2014, August 28, 2014, November 10, 2014. As of today, November 11, 2014, not only was I charged $ 200.00 on August 18, 2014 by Landmark, AND another additional $ 200.00 on November 7, 2014.
I hereby request immediately refund and credit of $ 400.00 back to my account within 24 hours or I will proceed with legal action for the unauthorized deduction of $ 400.00 from my bank account plus punitive damages for overdrawing from my bank account, the inconvenience Landmark has caused, AND all the stress and emotional damages Landmark has caused me.

Having recently moved from a longtime standing on Century Blvd., the new digs in Culver City is a welcome refined look. Plenty of free parking, on the weekends and after 5, it’s easy to get to this location from the 405 or La Cienega.
With this massive endevour, the Center hasn’t skipped a beat on it’s integrity, professionalism, and communication.
Look forward to the new branding, Landmark Worldwide, check out the new website layout at
