Our Team.

I started training Jiu-Jitsu in 1998 in Rio de Janeiro, together with my cousins. There were six of us training together, and we felt almost like the Gracie family.

We spent all day talking about Jiu-Jitsu. And we still do! Three of us are now black belts, and we still have fun talking about Jiu-Jitsu every day.

My dream of making a living from Jiu-Jitsu began back then, in those first years of training alongside my cousins. And that dream has stayed with me ever since.

In 2015 I received my black belt from my professor Leonardo Tapias, “Nado”. I feel very honored by that. He is a success story in the Jiu-Jitsu world, loved and respected by everyone, including me.

Simple: Jiu-Jitsu is the mechanism for absolute evolution!

I started in 2003 in the town of Alegre, Espírito Santo, while studying veterinary medicine. I always loved sports and Jiu-Jitsu made me curious. After a few classes I realized I was in love with the martial art.

I received my black belt at the end of 2019 from Master Nado, in a promotion ceremony that was very special to me.

Jiu-Jitsu means quality of life and physical and mental well-being. Jiu-Jitsu is my balance point.
