“I started to learn Jiu Jitsu late. I always wanted to be a trainer of some kind of fight and at that time Jiu Jitsu was popular in Brazil. I saw some friends training and decided to try too. In a month my coach put me to compete and I won my first Championship. Since then I never stopped training. I did start late but I was working hard and training hard and also participated all the championships I could. In 2009 when I already had a brown belt my professors Rolker and Royler made me the following proposal: if that year I won all the championships of absolute category they would promote me to the black belt. So that’s what I did. I won a State Championship, the Brazilian and International Championships and received a black belt on the podium. After that I began to get different offers. I had offers to train in different countries but decided to come to Moscow with the help of my friend who has been living here for 6 years. When I came I started to give lessons 3 times a week and after some time I rented a gym where I’ve been giving lessons until today. ”
