Online BJJ Academy — Founding Preview Is Live
Most online libraries hand you a move and wish you luck. Here, every lesson is broken into pieces — the entry, the control, the finish — each step timed to the video and explained in plain words, the same way I teach it on my own mats. 46 full lessons are open in this founding preview, organized white to black.
Your professor
GFTeam black belt in the Fadda lineage. Professor and owner of WDC Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (GFTeam DC) in Takoma Park, Maryland — a real school, with real students, behind every lesson in this library.
Lineage: Maeda → Luiz França → Oswaldo Fadda → Monir Salomão → Júlio César Pereira → Ataíde Rafael → Deivid Dias
The triangle is my favorite submission — and this Academy teaches it as a system, not a trick: spider guard entries, the armbar-to-triangle chain, triangles from turtle, from mount, from everywhere. Eleven lessons deep in the full library. Start with the triangle lessons open in the preview and feel how the pieces connect.

Open any lesson: press play, then follow the steps underneath — each one stamped with the exact seconds in the video where it happens.
The curriculum
The preview library below is fully built and watchable today. Behind it, the full archive curriculum — 53 mapped lessons — is being loaded in belt order, and the tracks that are still thin say so honestly: the pressure-passing flagship series and the escapes track are in production, built from my classes, not faked to fill a page.
Plus the book that started it all: Built On Pressure — members get the thinking behind the system, not just the moves.

Every belt. White belts start at First Principles — how to tie your belt, the grips, your first submissions and escapes. Blue and purple belts get the systems. Brown and black get the advanced attacks. Find your belt on the curriculum page and start there.
Both. Every lesson is tagged Gi or No-Gi, and the core systems — triangle, armbar, front headlock, back control — are taught in both.
For as long as you are a member — and founding members keep the $19 rate locked for as long as they stay. Cancel anytime, in a couple of taps, from your own account page. No lock-in contract, no exit interview. If the first month is not for you, walk away — that is the guarantee.
Lessons are taught in English. I speak Portuguese and Spanish — Portuguese and Spanish editions are on the Academy roadmap for my students back home in Brazil and across Latin America.
Yes — the Academy is the online arm of a real school: WDC Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (GFTeam DC), 720 Erie Ave, Takoma Park, Maryland. If you are ever in the DC area, your first class is on us.
