Nic manages to blend being a great competitor with being a great instructor (a rarity since most people tend to only be good at one or the other) - he really knows how to deconstruct a move and convey all of the details & subtleties - well worth going to if you are in the area.

He is a great Jiu Jitsu man and it would be well worth attending this imo.

Nic has that Star Quality as a Teacher.

If he continues to develop he will go far in European BJJ. 15-20 years from now I think he will be one of the leaders of European BJJ.

You'll look back at this seminar and be glad you met him when he was relatively unknown.

Thanks guys, apprectiate the replys...

So far the session is a very small bunch will plenty of room left on the mats. To be fair I hope it stays relatively quiet so those there get the most from the session.

Simon: I haven't forget to reply about your session, just been busy with work at the mo. Will reply ASAP.

Cheers,
Dave
