Brazilian Black Belt BJJ CAMP  

This video is awesome! It's a video with many moments of our 5 th BJJ CAMP.

We have the dates for our next BJJ CAMP check out page!!!
Once again It will be 10 days long, but we will provide you all the support if you want to stay longer.

BJJ CAMP

Brazilian Black belts have decided to open their summer house located in Búzios, the greatest watering-place in the Rio de Janeiro state! It's the place where, traditionally, they train themselves for the important tournaments.

They have decided to make a BJJ CAMP for everyone who is interested in learning Jiu-jitsu that is being taught and practiced right now in Brazil along with a lot of fun. Even better, it's going to be in the wonderful state of Rio de Janeiro.

The purpose of the CAMP is to teach the best BJJ available, hiding no secrets and with the teaching methods that have been making those guys step on the first place podiums for several years

NEXT CAMP
At the Brazilian Black Belt BJJ CAMP, that take place twice a year (April and August), we assure that you will get the best possible instruction in the most exclusive Jiu-Jitsu training program in the WORLD

THE HOUSE
The house is amazing, not only for its beauty but also because it has a perfect harmony with the surroundings. Its architecture helped inspired the city's style. The architect that made the house is considered the precursor of Búzios construction. It's also located right on the beach, you walk out of the house and step in the sand. Even better, the beach (Geribá beach), is the most popular beach in the city where everyone likes to hang out.
NUMBER of STUDENTS
It may sound weird, but we don't want to have a lot of students, the reason is that to guarantee a high quality standard of instruction, we limit the maximum number of students to 17. We could increase the maximum number, but we want to give something that you will get NO WHERE in the WORLD.

We are sure that no other school in the world will give you the chance to have so many TOP black belts teaching and grappling at the same class at the same time.
STUDENT´S 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.
BENEFITS
Through a high quality lifestyle, we have the intention of helping our guests make BIG steps with their techniques. We are SURE that everyone will go back home with a feeling that they have NEVER learned so much in such a short time. We are going to teach the concepts (the way things work) so it can be incorporated into your own BJJ game.
Besides the BJJ improvement, you will mix this with the best vacation of your life. Búzios is a place you will never forget, its beauty is outstanding and you will probably make plans to come back.
INVESTMENT
The accommodation: five meals a day, transportation from the airport and back and all the classes are included. The investment is only US$120 a day.

We find that to be a very reasonable, especially considering that is usually what you would pay just for a room in any nice hotel. The CAMP last 10 days
SPECIAL BJJ CAMP
The special CAMP is made for close groups, let's say you have a group of friends who want to come to the CAMP or you want to bring your students, in this case you don't need to wait the regular CAMP, you can schedule to when is the best for your group.You choose the dates and how long you want to have it.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Rules: Do you have a question? 

Felipe Costa was ask to comment about this fight, since one of the fighters was unhappy about the referee’s decision.

Check out Felipe’s comment and feel free to send us your video and get our comments:

“here is my opinion on this fight  play by play:

48seconds 2 points sweep for Karol  (white KIMONO)

1:00 looks from the camera angle that Karol (white KIMONO) is on Bagis (black KIMONO) half guard, if that is the case, it would be an advantage to him

2:00 The referee should give a verbal warning to Karol (white KIMONO)for not moving

2:27 more than 20 seconds have pass and Karol(white KIMONO) haven't improve his position. The referee should have give him a stalling punishment, witch means that Bagi (black KIMONO)  get an advantage in his favor  and Karol a -1.

At this moment the score would be:

KAROL  (white KIMONO) 2points / 1 advantage / -1 for stalling

BAGI (black KIMONO) 0 points / 1 advantage 


2:50 and Karol (white KIMONO)is still in the same position, the referee should stop the fight, put both of them back up, give Karol the second "punishment" , and 2 points for Bagi (black KIMONO)

So the score at this point would be:

KAROL(white KIMONO): 2 points/1 advantage / -2

BAGI(black KIMONO): 2points / 1 advantage


BUT, as he didn’t do this, lets ignore this fact and just follow the fight from 3:45 when they finally change position

4:53 to 5:46 and Karol(white KIMONO) is still just holding and not train to open the guard, since it would be his third call, he could be disqualify already

7:15 advantage for Bagi (black KIMONO)for the choke attempt

7:58 when Bagi(black KIMONO) establish the back and Karol puts both Knees on the ground, that is a sweep = 2 points


So at the end, even if the referee had made a mistake and  never gave the warning points AT ALL, the fight would have end with a even score of:

KAROL(white KIMONO) : 2 points (sweep) / 1 advantage (half guard)

BAGI(black KIMONO): 2 points (sweep) / 1 advantage (choke)

No doubt the decision would go to BAGI(black KIMONO), because he was more active during the fight AND at the end of the fight, also his advantage came from a submission attempt while Karol advantage came from a half guard control.

So in the end, the result was fair.

Congratulations everyone and good job. Felipe Costa
