STATEMENT
One of the most rewarding and motivating things for me as a BJJ coach for kids is seeing our students evolve in positive ways; both on and off the mats. I think that my way of thinking can be summarized in one quote, originally said by Dr. Billy Graham: „One coach will impact more young people in a year than the average person does in a lifetime.“

STATEMENT
I’ve been training martial arts since I was a kid, and today I understand how important they have been for me as I grew up: for my character development, for the way I see the world, and the way I communicate, respect, and emphatize with other people. That’s why it’s been such a fulfilling role for me to be a kids coach at Frota Academy – I like nothing more than seeing young people grow up into responsible, respectful, and kind adults.
