professor samuel braga is a multiple time world champion, an incredible instructor and the founder of the berimbolo technique . when he first arrived in the united states he assisted professor draculino at gracie barra texas. professor samuel has fortunately continued to travel to houston regularly and has helped all of us tremendously. his de la riva game is unbelieveable! 

sad to hear of his injury as we are all huge fans of his bjj. we are looking forward to seeing him compete again soon!
