<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Professor Ivan Rocha construiu um trabalho consolidado na Europa e atuou tanto como competidor quanto na formação de atletas de Jiu-Jitsu. Ivan morou na Itália por sete anos e se dividiu nas funções de professor e competidor. Ele ministrou diversos seminários em cidades italianas e viajou para outros países europeus, como Inglaterra e Alemanha, com o propósito de testar sua equipe, a Cabecinha Team Itália, e propagar os valores do Jiu-Jitsu.  </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Uma das conquistas mais especiais da carreira de Ivan veio há uma década: no London Open 2013, organizado pela IBJJF. O mineiro superou o frio inglês e os adversários para se sagrar campeão nas categorias com e sem kimono. “Ganhar sempre é gratificante, é bom demais. Além dos meus títulos, minha equipe teve um saldo positivo. No total, voltamos para casa com dez medalhas, com quatro de ouro”, recordou o faixa-preta.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Em bate-papo com a equipe do GRACIEMAG.com, Ivan Rocha relembrou momentos marcantes do London Open e listou os maiores aprendizados durante o período em que morou na Itália.</span></p>
<p><strong><em>GRACIEMAG:</em> O que aquele título conquistado há uma década, durante o London Open, representou para sua carreira?</strong></p>
<p><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">IVAN ROCHA: </span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;">A conquista desse título tem um significado especial, pois é difícil treinar duro e trabalhar tanto na minha evolução técnica quanto na dos meus alunos ao mesmo tempo. Os professores que também competem sabem disso. Ganhar sempre é gratificante, é bom demais. Além dos meus títulos nas categorias com e sem kimono, minha equipe teve um saldo positivo. No total, voltamos para casa com dez medalhas, com quatro de ouro.</span></p>
<p><strong>Você tem alguma memória marcante desse campeonato?</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Sim, além dos meus ouros com e sem kimono, a perda de peso também me marcou porque não foi nada fácil. O sacrifício resume a vida do lutador. Além de ter perdido peso, me aventurei no absoluto depois. E, na época, eu pesava 64kg. O que lembro daquele dia foi o fato de estar muito frio. Eu corria o ginásio inteiro e não conseguia suar nada. Foi prazeroso acompanhar meus alunos numa competição internacional e ver cada um deles vencer e entregar tudo de si. A união da equipe me traz uma sensação inexplicável. O que mais me motiva é ver meu trabalho ir pelo caminho certo. Além destes momentos, o Jiu-Jitsu proporciona experiências incríveis, como conhecer lugares novos e culturas diferentes pelo mundo.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_241289" style="width: 660px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-241289" class="size-large wp-image-241289" src="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/WhatsApp-Image-2023-06-21-at-17.57.21-1024x635.jpeg" alt="" width="650" height="403" srcset="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/WhatsApp-Image-2023-06-21-at-17.57.21-1024x635.jpeg 1024w, https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/WhatsApp-Image-2023-06-21-at-17.57.21-300x186.jpeg 300w, https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/WhatsApp-Image-2023-06-21-at-17.57.21-768x476.jpeg 768w, https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/WhatsApp-Image-2023-06-21-at-17.57.21-150x93.jpeg 150w, https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/WhatsApp-Image-2023-06-21-at-17.57.21.jpeg 1170w" sizes="(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px" /><p id="caption-attachment-241289" class="wp-caption-text">Ivan Rocha tornou-se campeão com e sem kimono no London Open 2013.

<p><strong>Quais são os maiores desafios de competir no exterior?</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As recompensas superam os desafios. Porém, não é fácil, são inúmeras barreiras, como o impacto cultural e a diferença da comida. Mas, a meu ver, o maior obstáculo é o frio. É complicado lutar diante de temperaturas tão baixas, algo que é recorrente na Europa.</span></p>
<p><strong>Quais eram suas técnicas preferidas nos tempos de competidor?</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Sou passador. Eu costumava esperar o adversário me puxar para a guarda ou eu tentava a queda para ficar por cima. Me sinto bem quando chego na meia-guarda, eu gosto de tourear para chegar ao cem-quilos. Quando estou por baixo, gosto de fazer a De la Riva com o intuito de raspar.</span></p>
<p><strong>Quais foram os maiores aprendizados no período em que você morou na Europa?</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Eu evoluí pessoal e profissionalmente, sobretudo. É importante viajar, conhecer outros países e vivenciar culturas diferentes da que estamos acostumados. Deixar as nossas raízes nos faz ir além, amplia os horizontes e é algo enriquecedor. Ninguém jamais tira aquela experiência de você. Neste período de sete anos em que vivi em prol do Jiu-Jitsu na Europa entendi ainda mais o valor da arte marcial e como o esporte abre portas inimagináveis. Um dos meus desejos é que as pessoas tenham a oportunidade de presenciar como o Jiu-Jitsu pode ser transformador e proporcionar mais qualidade de vida.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Black belt Ivan Rocha has built a consolidated work in Europe and has worked both as a competitor and in the training of Jiu-Jitsu athletes. Ivan lived in Italy for seven years and divided his time between teaching and competing. He taught several seminars in Italian cities and traveled to other European countries, such as England and Germany, with the purpose of testing his team, Cabecinha Team Italy, and spreading the values of Jiu-Jitsu.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">One of the most special achievements of Ivan&#8217;s career came at the London Open 2013, organized by IBJJF. Ivan overcame the English cold and the opponents to be consecrated champion in the categories with and without kimono. &#8220;Winning is always gratifying, it&#8217;s too good. Besides my titles, my team had a positive balance. In total, we came home with ten medals, four of them gold&#8221;, recalled the black belt.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In a chat with the GRACIEMAG.com team, Ivan Rocha recalled some of the highlights of the London Open and listed the most important lessons learned during the period he lived in Italy.</span></p>
<p><strong><em>GRACIEMAG:</em> What did the London Open title represent for you?</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><em>IVAN ROCHA:</em> </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Winning this title has a special meaning, because it is difficult to train hard and work on both my technical evolution and that of my students at the same time. The teachers who also compete know this. Winning is always gratifying, it is too good. Besides my titles in the categories with and without kimono, my team had a positive balance. In total, we came home with ten medals, four of them gold.</span></p>
<p><strong>Do you have any outstanding memory from this championship?</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Yes, besides my golds gi and nogi, the weight loss also marked me because it was not easy at all. Sacrifice sums up the fighter&#8217;s life. Besides losing weight, I ventured into the absolute afterwards. And, at the time, I weighed 64kg. What I remember from that day was the fact that it was very cold. I ran the whole gym and couldn&#8217;t sweat at all. It was a pleasure to accompany my students in an international competition and to see each of them winning and giving it their all. The team unity gives me an inexplicable feeling. What motivates me the most is to see my work going the right way. Besides these moments, Jiu-Jitsu provides incredible experiences, such as getting to know new places and different cultures around the world.</span></p>

Photo: Personal Archive</p></div>
<p><strong>What are the biggest challenges of competing abroad?</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The rewards outweigh the challenges. However, it is not easy, there are numerous barriers, such as the cultural impact and the difference in food. But, in my opinion, the biggest obstacle is the cold. It is complicated to struggle in such low temperatures, something that is recurrent in Europe.</span></p>
<p><strong>What were your favorite techniques in your competitive days?</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I am a guard passer. I used to wait for the opponent to pull me to guard or I would try the fall to get on top. I feel good when I get to half-guard, I like to bull-fight to get to the side control. When I&#8217;m on the bottom, I like to do the De la Riva with the intention of scraping the opponent.</span></p>
<p><strong>What were the biggest learnings during the time you lived in Europe?</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Above all, I evolved personally and professionally. It is important to travel, to get to know other countries and experience cultures different from the one we are used to. Leaving our roots makes us go further, broadens our horizons, and is something enriching. No one ever takes that experience away from you. During the seven years I lived for Jiu-Jitsu in Europe I understood even more the value of the martial art and how the sport opens unimagined doors. One of my wishes is that people have the opportunity to see how Jiu-Jitsu can be transformative and provide more quality of life.</span></p>
