Always looking to improve their fight game, Academy instructors Dave Coles and Simon Small have been making the 130 mile round trip to train in 'Brazilian' Jiu-Jitsu under Bráulio "Carcará" Estima at the Gracie Barra Academy in Birmingham.
Bráulio was the 2002 World 'Brazilian' Jiu-Jitsu Champion (open class) and bronze medallist in 2001. He is a Brown Belt under Maurício Motta Gomes, the founder and Head instructor of Gracie Barra UK and fights for the famous Gracie Barra Academy based in Rio De Jenerio Brazil.
