REVIEW BY BRYAN , instructor of BKK BJJ ACADEMY in Thailand:

Felipe was kind enough to let me tour his website/ online school a couple months ago.

The lessons Felipe has available online, in my opinion, can be described easily- concise, organized, easy-to-follow, practical, effective, and well though out. If you've ever had a chance to attend one of Felipe's seminars or classes, you'll quickly notice his online lessons are presented exactly the same as he would teach with a class present.

The question of whether people can learn from online videos has been around since the advent of YouTube. Every instructor dreads getting the 'I saw this video on YouTube. Can you show me how to do it?' question. Usually this comes in the form of something like a flying arm-bar or berimbolo transition that the student has no business attempting with regards to skill level.

What Felipe has outlined in nearly all the lessons I reviewed on www.BrazilianBlackBelt.com is a teaching method which allows the student to truly understand the technique(s) being shown from the ground up. He works from simple to more complicated variations of the techniques. He also has his lessons and programs organized in terms of his belt level recommendation (white, blue, purple, etc.). There are many high level lessons as well.

If the question being asked is, "will I become a better BJJ player by just watching the videos?" My answer would be, "probably not." (I'm sure Felipe would agree.) If, however, you drill these techniques with a partner and attempt them in a sparring situation, then your chances for success are very high. Nothing can substitute for actual mat time, and Felipe's lessons really emphasize the 'practice, practice, practice' portion of BJJ.

I've seen a lot of online programs and feel this is one of the best out there. Nice work Felipe! Looking forward to seeing more of your stuff in the future.

YES, the CAMP is not made for any specific team. Everyone is welcome, despite the team or level of instruction.

Do I share room with someone else?

Yes, you will share room with up to 3 people. Unless if you come with your wife/girlfriend, on that case you will have your own room.

Arrangements can be made if you would like to stay by yourself at one room, but an extra charge will be applied in this case.

Can I bring my wife and kids?

Yes, many of our students do and if they don’t train they will have a big discount, plus you will have your own room.

What are the students level?

As we teach the concepts (the way things work), the different levels of students is not a problem. We have had students from white belts to black belts and they were all pleased at the end. We have had martial arts lovers who had never put on a BJJ gi before, but at the end they were feeling quite comfortable with BJJ.
We will be giving FULL-TIME attention during the classes, not only teaching but also rolling while correcting the mistakes. This will allow us to address everyone´s BJJ needs with 100% satisfaction.
How much rolling will I get with Comprido and Felipe Costa?

Both Comprido and Felipe will roll everyday, so chances are that you will roll with him everyday or at least a lot.

and Felipe will answer you personally in less than 24hrs.
