Chris Cowboy (Purple Belt) - San Diego, California – USA: “Thank you for the opportunity and hospitality you all showed me while I was in Brazil. It was an AMAZING time. This was my 3rd trip to Brasil and by far the most fun and informative BJJ experience I have ever had. I left the camp with many incredible memories of the people and places that we met. The level of all of the instructors and facilities of both BTT & Nova Geracao were the best!!! I left with so many new techs it was like being at an epic BJJ seminar everyday…The camp structure and information that was presented to us daily was also incredible. Everything was laid out perfectly everyday in clear and concise instructions and we were kept extremely busy. The hotel and activities were great and more than we expected. I would HIGHLY recommend this camp to anyone that wants to truly experience Rio and take their game to the next level! Don't miss out on this experience! “
Rune Brinckmeyer (White Belt) - DENMARK: “JJ Camp promised a chance to roll with some of the best BJJ players and delivered. Both training sites BTT & Nova Geração, provided a rare opportunity to train with really skilled people that are on the top of their game. Both places managed to present a friendly and relaxed environment, without ever compromising training focus and a serious approach to the learning process. I found the instructors highly inspirational, the focus on technique, form and training drills to be top-notch. Instructors and students of the academies had every intention to make me a better player, showing attention to the fact that people are different, and thus needs to strengthen different parts of their game. Definitely a camp I would like to return to! It met and even exceeded my highest hopes for it, obviously with respect to BJJ, but also in terms of learning a little about how cariocas (the people of Rio) go about important business such as beach- and party activities as well! Coming as a White Belt, I got away with a lot of insight on how the landscape of BJJ looks, and I am eager to explore it given this new knowledge. I'll be back!”
Cliff Keltner (Purple Belt) – San Diego, California – USA: “First Class BJJ Camp went far and beyond what I expected for my two weeks in Brazil. The camp is extremely organized and you get to train at some of the best academies in Rio. The staff and instructors are professional and make you feel welcome as soon as you get off the plane. Between the training, tours, nightlife, seminars and competition, you definitely get the most for your money. This is a great camp for the first-timer to Brazil as well as the seasoned traveler. I would highly recommend this camp to anyone involved in brazilian jiu-jitsu and I plan on attending next years camp as well.”
Morris Williams (Blue Belt) – Higley, Arizona – USA : “I thought the BJJ camp was outstanding. I enjoyed the training, as well as meeting some of the top BJJ players and MMA fighters. The instruction was top notch. From the privates to the seminars. I would definitely recommend this camp to any serious Jiu Jitsu player". * Morris won 3 fights (submitting 2) becoming International Master Champion!
We designed this camp to improve student 's interest in BJJ, Submission and MMA trainning and give them a opportunity to follow BTT routine. Last time we received many students from other teams and they returned to their home teams with more enthusiasm to train and brought friends to their academies.
If you want to come with your students that may be interest in our camp, you are more than welcome ! If you can't come, we'll take care of them.
