We Are The Champions!

Nicky takes the Gold

Tommy wins the Silver

Tommy is going for the take down

Nicky is waiting his turn

The Arena

Our team from Pindamonhangaba




Tommy and Nicky took home medals this last weekend! We traveled to the city of Guardatinguata for the boys first competition. Nicky brought home the Gold and Tommy brought home the Silver in their first tournament. The arena was large and the crowd was fierce. Tommy and Nicky are both white belts. This is the first belt you achieve while training in jujitsu. They have been training for 8 weeks at our home church Sara Nossa Terra (Heal our Nation). Tommy fought a kid from Rio de Janeiro who was a yellow belt. We are very proud of both of them. It is difficult for them to understand instructions during their matches because their coach/trainer only knows Portuguese! Their Trainer Daniel is fighting for the Sao Paulo Championship next week.
