I like to wrassle up.
His way of coaching is one of the best in the game, no useless words, just techniques
Great addition to the game
Great stuff! I'd love to see Nicky Ryan come out with more instructionals
I found Nicky Ryan’s instructional really useful, especially for improving my guard retention. It also covers positions like butterfly guard and the dogfight, which were gaps in my game. Short, clear, and very practical.
Really good
Great technique show. By Nicky. Would have loved some more reps and from different angles to make the teaching more memorable
Goood
Very good explanation and breakdown of the techniques, it should be compulsory for people that can't wrestle and only pull guard 😊
Good
Great video, but a little advanced for me. By the next belt, I’ll be able to apply these lessons
One of my favorite instructional on wrestling up.
Implementing techniques straight away. I was having trouble with people not engaging with my seated guard but now I’m be taking them down. Nicky explains the technique perfectly.
Great
A really thorough and well thought out system for wrestling up from guard
Expanded my understanding of wrestle ups
Helped me improve my confidence from open guards and opened up pathways to takedowns.
Original and unique at its time of release. Now there are several wrestle up videos out there.
great series, he does a good job breaking down the wrestle up in terms everyone understands.
Nicky Ryan’s Wrestle Up Series is a masterclass in modern grappling, showcasing his elite technique and strategic brilliance. A must-watch for anyone looking to elevate their wrestling and jiu-jitsu game!
Nicky Ryan’s Wrestle Up Series is an excellent resource for anyone seeking to improve their open guard game with wrestling-style sweeps. It is highly recommended for no-gi enthusiasts at all skill levels.
Have been watching Ryan pulling these techniques on various opponents. Its great to finally have a breakdown
fist frame!
Nicky Ryan is a fantastic instructor.
Everything you need to know about wrestling up
Def integrated many of these techniques into my own game and my students
Good content on bridging ground game with wrestling technique
A must have for your no gi bottom game.
gojd

Really good content. This is probably my favourite instructional I've seen.

très bonnes explications, contenu très complet
good
Nice instructional
Packed with good concepts and techniques.
Nicky teaches in a clear and concise manner. Able to implement these concepts right away.
This is very good not just for bjj but mma and self-defense situation too. It is like you train for one but good for three. Image you get pin then Escape the pin and know how to technical stand up then run away to protect yourself in dangerous situation. It is just so valuable. This is for all level not just for black belt.
Great video! I highly recommend it for everyone.
Great coverage of wrestling up in the different situations, standing, kneeling, etc. Use the techniques right away.
gud
Overall good. Theres alot of content and its straight to the point which is bice to refwr back to
lots of high percentage wrestle ups on this video. I keep returning to it again and again.
Amazing
Super helpful and a ton of fun
been taking beaches down
a lot of good details to be good at wrestle ups!!!
I've watched Andrew Wiltse's wrestle up instructional multiple times and absolutely love it, but this offers good contrast to Andrew's methods. I like how most postions lead to similar finishes and tactics.
Nicky gives you details for the techniques and the scenario in which you would use them without a lot of extra talking simple to the point
