Gym Approved by: Aldous Hauser, Tome Morais, Stanley Fishman
Ashe Denis, is the founder of the vale tudo portion of legendary jiu-jitsu master Jorge "Gorducho" Correa de Lima's jiu-jitsu team after being forced to compete in underground Brazilian vale tudo events. Denis is looking for people who are natural fighters yet at the same time can chill out and go to the beach or party at the various bars and night clubs. Denis expects a certain level of loyalty and camaraderie which is ingrained into the jiu-jitsu culture in Brazil.
We train long hard hours everyday, especially during the private lessons under Denis.
Besides that the only thing necessary is a love and wanting to learn jiu-jitsu where it was founded.
Accommodation

This five bedroom two kitchen furnished house has a pool, big yard, great view of Pedra da Gavea, BBQ, basic cable TV, washing machine, water/electric included, + maid service...3/4 block from Gorducho Jiu-Jitsu/Gracie Fission Brasil.
•Safe Area

•Blocks away from the best mixed drinks in Rio
•Secure House
•Environment conducive to training

Coaches:
Legendary jiu-jitsu master Jorge "Gorducho" Correa De Lima, who has an impenetrable, impassable, and unstoppable half guard game. He was born with a leg defect which reduced the mobility in one of his legs. It is because of this that he got really really fat and people teased him so he learnt jiu-jitsu from the famous Gracie family.
We don't really have much in the way of striking training in house (Ashe Denis does have a traditional striking martial arts game as well as informal boxing) but scattered around are various boxing and muay thai gyms. We are also still trying to adapt our training so that we are competitive with Japanese shoot-wrestlers who use techniques we aren't familiar with. For example our wrestling needs work but thats why we brought in Matt Angle. Also leg lock defense could be a problem in the future, this is why we are a UJSW development gym afterall.
