Marion Cobretti - At least 100 academies in south Florida. but good luck.
Low cost of living and a lot of people into jiu jitsu.. he should be fine.
one of the very best
is this a separate project?
i thought he was affiliated with evolve, or is that a mma gym project that he has going with his brother?
No LUCK necessary! Gordinho is the man and his school will be a huge success!
Great guy, excellent teacher, and very experienced. There's no doubt he will be successful with this new venture.
Gordinho is a nice guy and the school looks very nice and his jiu jitsu is amazing, guy has unreal pressure. He visited our school a bunch while opening his academy to roll and his skills and understanding are amazing.
If you are in the area and have a chance to go to his school it would definitely benefit your game.
walbjj - is this a separate project?As far as i know he still oversees the Jiu Jitsu program at Evolve.

He's been killing my Facebook with this Start stuff.
Animal Mother - He's been killing my Facebook with this Start stuff.Then he is being aggressive with his marketing that's good business
He always is. Gordinho is a legit business man. If it wasn't for him everybody at Renzo's would be paying $30 a month. Lol
I visited him and spent the week at his new academy. The school is beautiful and he is already bringing in a bunch of new students. The raining was awesome as a lot if high level black belts he grew up with always stop by to train.
