this video means a lot to us. it shows me a lot of character from young people. I am so proud to see that I was always able to appreciate the success of those around me. this video is from 2011 worlds, I won light-feather (closing out w ary),rafael won featherweight and durinho won lightweight. we were on our early 20s and we were training together since we were 15/16 years old. everyday pushing each other and making each other better. their win was my win, and I could feel that my win was also their win. people that create a team atmosphere and are happy when others succeed normally are also working hard to achieve their goals as well, and they will get there. in our talks on the way home or after training we were always sharing our dreams and plans for the future, we all wanted to have beautiful families, use our passion to provide for our family, and while rafa and I dreamed about becoming multiple time world champions and having a jiu jitsu powerhouse in the US, durinho always made it clear that his goal was to become a black belt world champion and then start his career in mma, to become the UFC champion. in a couple of days he will have the opportunity to achieve this goal, and we will be watching him to celebrate his success like we always did. fly high brother.

studying jiu jitsu vs just practicing – theres a huge difference in results if you compare those athletes who are totally committed to study techniques, understand details and develop systems vs those who are just natural fighters who battle to win at any cost. at young age both can work well, but overtime you will see the first scenario producing consistent champions, great instructors, and people that are able to reap the fruits of the skills they developed during their grow in jiu jitsu.
as an instructor I teach people how to analyze situations and find answers, I never show the solution because in jiu jitsu every problem given is unique – I teach the students how to approach the match understanding different scenarios and to forecast the opponents most likely reactions so they can be creative in their own way and build their own style.

estudar jiu jitsu vs apenas praticar – há uma grande diferença de resultados se você comparar os atletas que estão totalmente comprometidos em estudar técnicas, entender detalhes e desenvolver sistemas vs aqueles que são apenas lutadores naturais que lutam para vencer a qualquer custo. enquanto jovem ambos podem funcionar bem, mas com o tempo você verá o primeiro cenário produzindo campeões consistentes, ótimos instrutores e pessoas que são capazes de colher os frutos das habilidades que desenvolveram durante seu crescimento no jiu jitsu. como instrutor, ensino as pessoas a analisar situações e encontrar respostas, nunca mostro a solução porque no jiu jitsu cada problema dado é único – ensino os alunos como abordar a luta entendendo diferentes cenários e prever as reações mais prováveis ​​dos oponentes, assim eles podem ser criativos à sua própria maneira e construir seu próprio estilo.
