Felipe began competing early in his
Jiu-Jitsu training, at the age of 17. He is a two time Rio de
Janeiro state champion and has competed extensively in Brazil and
the US. Felipe was promoted to Black Belt on January 20, 1998 in the
Master Jiu-Jitsu academy in Atlanta, Georgia, by Professor Jacaré
Cavalcanti. It was a well deserved promotion. Those who train with
Zicró know that he is not only an excellent trainer with a vast
knowledge of Jiu-Jitsu, but also a good friend, and a great person
to be associated with and train with. He, like most of the Alliance
instructors, does not forget who you are once you walk out of the
Academy doors. He is the type of person who will do anything he can
to help you whether it be in training or in personal life. He truly
cares about his students and the members of the Alliance Jiu-Jitsu
team.
Felipe is very strong for his size
and is a very technical fighter. He has the ability to fight from
the top, bottom, or any other position. He is excellent at passing
the guard and possesses very strong side mount control. Felipe
always fights for the finish, and never just to score points. The
finish is what matters.
His philosophy on Jiu-Jitsu is
"Always train hard, believe in yourself, and never get discouraged
or give up. Keep your head up and always look ahead and focus on
your goals."
