Improved my Half Guard!
Great insight and an excellent resource.
Excellent insight in how to play this position. A great resource to reference.
Good comprehensive, advanced, modern nogi HG instr.
Need to watch this a few more times working my way through it, really good stuff compacted into a smaller package than a lot of drawn out instructionals
I was looking for some new tricks for z guard to start attacking legs, and I got that from these videos, but I found Kichuk's tips on grip fighting and off balancing even more helpful. I love the way he gives you pathways for your attack sequences starting with an off balance and grip battle, leading to more and more complicated scenarios based on defensive reactions. Very clear instruction, multiple angles, easy to see and hear.
Kichuk's teaching is clear, well articulated and detailed. He covers a variety of pathways to attack from half, beginning each sequence with the most basic attack and concluding with the most advanced. I was most interested in his tips for hand fighting and off balancing - I put those into effect right away and they made a big difference.

The best half guard instrucional on site !!
Great video
very informativ instructional good details can recommend very much must have for half guard players
brilliant details
This is an excellently organized instructional. I have a lot of half guard instructionals but this one brings a lot of new things to the table and does a great job covering the new school half guard you see out of current competitors. He also presents the material with 4 specific "attack paths" so the strategy, grip fighting sequences, and technique selection are all leading to a specific path and all the possible opponent reactions are covered. So even if your opponent knew what you were doing he'd have a hard time stopping it without just fully disengaging and running away. Excellent instructional by an excellent instructor. Also don't miss out on his False Reap instructional, it's also the best coverage on the subject.
Great details. Succinct. Good value for money. Techniques for all levels.
Off balances and leg entries
Kieran shows high percentage half guard attacking systems which all work extremely well of each other. Kieran is a great instruction and communicates how to execute the techniques in a clear and concise manner. Highly recommend. The knee crunch section is worth the price alone
great instructional and good explanations and demonstration of techniques surprisingly easy to apply and caught my regular training partners of guard
the order of importance Kieran gives is very helpful
all of kieran’s content is amazing
