I thought at first that this humble little guy dressed in sweats couldn’t be HIM. But it was. As anyone who has learned from him will attest, Renzo Gracie is, to borrow one of his favorite exclamations, an UNBELIEVABLE teacher. Renzo is in fact an unbelievable grappler, fighter, businessman, and human being.
This is not hyperbole, it’s math. Renzo runs for the example the most successful martial arts facility in North America.

1. Always smile, even to your enemies.
2. Live life, don’t just survive; enjoy every moment, even the problems.
3. A wall is nothing but something to jump over to achieve your goal.
