“Without a doubt, RMNU stands out as one of the premier destinations for martial arts training, particularly Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, in the North Florida region.”

Featured

Robson Moura, a well known and accomplished Brazilian Jiu Jitsu athlete, spent his early life below poverty level in a shanty town north of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Thanks to loving parents and an introduction to the world of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, he was able to avoid the temptations of his environment. This relatively new martial art transformed a small shy young man, with a never give up attitude, into a world champion powerhouse who dominated the world of competitive Jiu Jitsu for over 10 years. Robson Moura, with co-author John Graybeal, recap the trials and tribulations experienced from the neighborhood and community where Robson grew up. The reader will go on a journey with Robson from humble beginnings, growing through Jiu Jitsu to eventually moving to the United States and living out The American Dream. This book is for anyone who enjoys reading about overcoming cultural, economic, and personal challenges. Robson Moura's one of a kind story is vividly brought to life - while he shares unique stories and how his overall mindset propelled him to success in Jiu Jitsu, business and family.
