Testimonials

“I have trained under Professor Flavio Kenup for a number of years, and I can honestly say there is no finer instructor in Jiu Jitsu. I have been so lucky in my BJJ career as I have trained under some of the very best, including Pedro Duarte, Fabio Hollande, Olavo Abreau, real giants in the BJJ world. I have even trained with the great Cobrinha, and I can honestly say that Professor Flavio is as good a teacher as anyone of those gentlemen, a remarkable achievement.

Professor Flavio has such a deep passion for BJJ that he will keep you motivated. He will encourage you, push you, and pick you up if you are down. He will become your BJJ professor, your mentor, and a trusted friend. If you have an opportunity to train under him, you are fortunate indeed. You will quickly become an accomplished BJJ player and he will change your life in many other positive ways. Regardless of your physical condition, you are ready to train with Professor Flavio; he will adjust his classes for young, old, male, female, fit or unfit. Good luck, I envy you!"
