My background as a physical trainer began in Brazil, where I was raised and first gained experience. As a trainer, I had both the opportunity and privilege to work with several of the greatest athletes in the fighting world, such as: Wanderlei Silva, Rodrigo Minotauro, Rogério Minotouro, Ronaldo Jacare, Andre Galvao, Phil Barone, Robert Drysdale, Demian Maia, Cris Santos, Xande Ribeiro, Royler Gracie, Junior dos Santos, among others.
I would like to thank all of the above mentioned athletes, who gave me the opportunity to show them my work and methodology.
