Leticia Ribeiro & Fabricio Morango
Marcelo Garcia & Tatiana Tognini
Andre Terencio & Hannette Staack
Megaton & Luka dias
Brian & Sheila Bird
Fabiov & Juliana Holanda
Thaysa & Thiago Silva
Kid & Susie Peligro
Felipe & Sofia Amarante
Please only post facts and a link to verify (there academy website or something)
Ill edit/add to the OP as people post

Cant find anything on them in Google... whats there Lineage in BJJ? They have a website?
megaton and luka dias
.
both are nova unaio black belts and part of SBGi
and both got the bb from Wagney Fabiano
the sweeneys are in Canada. perhaps that's why u don't know.
they are under wagney.
super nice and technical. GREAT facility as well. i used to go there to train a bit when i was visiting my wife's family in Ogdensburg NY (a little over an hour away over the border). i'd always get weird looks by the border patrol because i'd see the same guy or girl on my way to and back.
"WHY DID YOU GO FOR SUCH A SHORT STAY?!"
"Just went to work out and train."
"Open the trunk please"
"ok"
nothing like a sweaty GI and a dirty jock strap to convince them of why you went over.
i believe this is it:

hopefully one day it will be me and kyra or beatriz.
My wife is a purple belt, training for over 10 years (took time off for kids).
Someday I hope she'll be my first black belt.
In my club we currently have 5 couples training...3 of the couples are already Blue Belts.

It's funny, no Gracies.
I don't think any Gracie has ever stayed married to one woman long enough for her to get a Black Belt.
Blue MAYBE, then she's out the door!
Rey Diogo and his wife Hura?
Fabio Holanda & wife?
Me and Leticia Ribeiro...Just a wish.
Sergio Silva and Jessi Taran (divorced)
kying418 - Rey Diogo and his wife Hura?
They are both Black Belts,"Hura" just got her's this year. BUT they are getting divorced, so I didn't mention it.
