    Ryann was my first ever Jiu Jitsu Coach up until 2017/18 - and has since remained a huge mentor in my life and especially my Jiu Jitsu career. Ryann is so attentive in his classes and it’s obvious that he has a vast amount of knowledge when it comes to Jiu Jitsu for all styles; from beginner to advanced.

    On top of all of that, he is just a brilliant guy on and off the mats. I’m happy that I can call this guy a friend since I joined one of his classes - my first Jiu jitsu class - back in 2014.

    If I was home in Australia right now, I’d be at Rhythm Jiu Jitsu.
