An article we did for Inside Karate magazine back in 1996,
to explain what (Gracie / Brazilain) Jiu-Jitsu is.
That is Marcio Simas applying a choke on me in the picture,
Along with the old explanation of:
"in Jiu-Jitsu, we train for Self-defense, Vale Tudo, and sports tournament Jiu-Jitsu."

Newspaper article from the 90's on the Sarasota academy I opened.
That is me in the guard,
my student Derek Taaca shown grappling with me,
as my other student Steve Hall, watches on in the Gi.
Both of them went on to become good black belts.

What a tragedy. I think it affected the whole landscape of MMA and BJJ more than most people might guess.

Old School Team Carlson Gracie. this picture has a lot of history too. The guy shaking Carlson's hand is a very famous rapper, Gabriel o Pensador,. he wrote a line that was interpreted as a stab at the jiu-jitsu community and there were a lot of guys who wanted to beat him up at the time hahaha. then he went to Carlson's gym and kind of made peace with the community. The song is called: Retrato de um Playboy. https://www.youtube.com/w[...]1h-XF-gzjM . On the pic top row from left: Wallid Ismail, Carlson JR, Gabriel, Carlson, Edson Carvalho, Amaury Bitetti.
