Rafael “Formiga” Barbosa is one of the most dynamic modern day BJJ players. The NY Open winner brings fresh ideas and slick techniques used in today’s competition scene. Formiga is not just a world-class competitor, he is also one of the coaches of the brown belt absolute world champion, João Gabriel Rocha, and UFC fighter Glover Teixeira, to name a few.

Andre “Dedeco” Almeida is a fourth degree black belt under Ricardo Liborio, and he is known as “The Maker of Champions”. Every year you see his students standing on the podiums at the world’s largest BJJ and MMA events.

Pete wanted to make this camp affordable to EVERYONE: “For $650 all you have to do is bring yourself and we will take care of the rest. The rest includes a new Origin limited edition gi if registered by July 15, 2012.”

GRACIEMAG supporter Origin burst onto the scene last year with some innovative products that include the OrangaHang grip training system. Origin’s COMP 550 gi was ranked the number-five gi in the 2011 Aesopian Gi Survey, opening a lot of eyes in a very short time. Well, keep your eyes open because Origin just launched their 2012 product-lineup video, and this year they are gunning for the number-one spot. As seen in the video, Origin is pushing the technology of their gis and gear. The video was shot in the foothills of Western Maine, where Origin is headquartered. Origin is owned by Pete Roberts and Andre “Dedeco” Almeida – both active competitors.
