Andre gomes
Jiu-Jitsu Instructor
I started training jiu-jitsu in 2000, and in 2002, I decided to dedicate my life to the sport with the dream of training with Roger Gracie. In 2009, I met him at the European Championship and moved to London to train under him, earning my black belt in 2011.
After that, I moved to Abu Dhabi, teaching in schools and military bases. In 2014, I opened my academy in Barcelona, and in 2018, I was invited to teach in the United States, working in several states and specializing in teaching individuals on the autism spectrum.
Now, I am ready to bring the best in human development for children and adults to Florida. See you on the mats!
