I took a high school team from 30th to top ten by sending the core group to Purler and bringing Purler into our room. On a personal level, Nick and Tony took my sons from okay Colorado wrestlers to new heights. My youngest son, Colton, will graduate this May as the pound-for-pound best high school wrestler in the country. He also won a world championship with the Purler go behind, “the easiest two points in wrestling.” Thank you Nick!

I don’t often comment on technique videos I’ve purchased, but you seem to allow yourself to be approached by others, so I thought I would let you know what I thought.
We started practice today. I have a team that comprises of about 27 kids, and about 10 of them started wrestling as freshmen. They are my most experienced kids. Using your handfighting skills and positioning drills, I was able to avoid the wanting to wrestle live comments. They were able to focus on better set-ups to utilize their growing shot repertoire.
My assistant came up to me and, although I feel as though I run good practices, made it a point to tell me how much more engaged the kids seemed as I didn’t allow for much down time and tried not to be an explaniac. I feel this was partly due to the handbook you provided with guidelines for practices.
I’ve felt all summer that we might be a sleeper team in our league. If we truly perform to our potential, some of that thanks will go to you.

I am enjoying watching/studying your wrestling DVD from a coach’s standpoint. I’ll be coaching wrestling full time at the junior high level. I’ve helped out the past two years, so this will be a new and exciting experience for me.
The small details that are demonstrated in the DVD, and the how’s and why’s of each move, along with the mental aspects, are very helpful. Good luck with your future endeavors in wrestling. Your concepts of how to be successful in the great sport of wrestling are a huge plus to people that want to and need to improve.
