ATTN Europeans: Want a seminar with a black belt?

Aesopian · 08-28-2006, 10:54 PM

Eduardo de Lima, my instructor, will be in Europe soon and would love to do some seminars while he's visiting. He will be there from October 9 to 31 and will definitely be in Portugal, Spain and France, but he will have a Eurail pass and is willing to go to other countries.

If you would like to setup a seminar or get more info, you can call Eduardo at 727-204-9731 or contact him on his website. You can PM me you phone number or email address and I will put you in contact with him.

If you want to know more about Eduardo, you can read his Wikipedia article or his biography.

Feel free to ask me any questions in this thread. Eduardo is a great instructor and I think anyone would really enjoy learning from him.

Hmm, I am in Slovenia and while there is quite a lot of interest for grappling here, there are no teachers around. Would he be willing to do no gi seminars? Most grapplers here are from mma gyms and do not roll with gis.

This is a great opportunity for you guys in Europe. Eduardo de Lima used to be the head instructor at Gracie Barra in Rio. There is no doubt that he can help your game, gi or no gi.

Hope I'm not being impudent by announcing this:

Eduardo "Teta" Rios from BTT Rio de Janeiro is coming to Norway in about a month.
If anyone in Scandinavia is interested in a weekend seminar just contact me.
He's a very good teacher and a very nice person.

We'll make this a thread of dueling Eduardos.

Nah, but seriously. Up here in Scandinavia there aren't a plethora of seminars with skilled BB's so just to spread the word I popped one in.

Any quality teaching going on is worth drawing attention to IMO so as to further the quality of the sport.
And I bet both Eduardo's know eachother 'cause Teta lives in and grew up in Barra.

Europe is big enough for two Eduardos, and I know they can always use experienced teachers in the area. You're welcome to promote your seminar too.

Is he gonna visit Barcelona?

Aesopian · 08-30-2006, 10:24 AM

If you want. He'll go anywhere if you'd like to host him.
