David and Annie Iturrino share an enormous passion for Jiu-Jitsu. Recently this year, on October 26, they got married inside their own BJJ School in Mount Dora, FL.

Husband, David is a Brown Belt under Todd Cutler (1st degree Balck Belt) owner of Daytona Fight Sports, whose lineage comes from our GMA Roberto Cyborg Abreu at Fight Sports Academy and wife, Annie is a Blue Belt. They are very excited about living the BJJ lifestyle together as a couple.

The couple’s entire wedding was centered on their love for Jiu-Jitsu. On their wedding party, both, bride and groom were dressed in Gi’s, as well as all the attendees.

We believe David and Annie are the 1st couple to have this idea of saying their vows inside a BJJ school and having an all Jiu-Jitsu theme wedding party.

Best wishes to the married couple! Congratulations!

Black belt couple teaching in Florida July 27/28.

Mackenzie Dern and Augusto Tanquinho Mendes are the most widely known Jiu-Jitsu couple around but it’s not just because they’re both black belts who compete a lot or because they can live in both the U.S. and Brazil. They are some of the most accomplished individuals in the sport.

Mackenzie has been training since she was a toddler as her father Wellington Megaton Dias has brought her up to live the lifestyle. Her accomplishments in competition have been tremendous up the ranks winning world titles at every rank making her transition to black belt competition this year a smooth one.

Augusto Tanquinho Mendes from Soul Fighters team accomplished his most recent world title in June as a black belt featherweight beating two legends in the process. A black belt since 2004, his resume and experiences have given him the knowledge to pass on to others.

The seminar will be held on July 27-28 in Miami, FL at the Fight Sports Academy located at 2220 Northeast 2nd Ave, Miami, FL 33137. Tanquinho will be responsible for Saturday while Mackenzie will show her techniques on Sunday both days running from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
