<p><strong>In the south of Brazil, you have an academy and a social project focused on Jiu-Jitsu, both highly praised, works of excellence. What can we expect now with your move to the United States?</strong><br />
<strong><br />
MARCOS CUNHA:</strong> My move to the U.S. seeks to expand my team, to build a base to support my athletes, who aspire to compete in major events and this was a difficulty for all of us. Today we have been able to build this base and we have two more branches here in the USA. This way I can generate opportunities for my athletes and my teachers. For next year I aim to open more branches and strengthen my competitive process here.</p>
<p><strong>Regarding your career as a competitor, what were your main achievements and what did you learn from them?</strong></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve competed a lot in these 32 years of Jiu-Jitsu, competition is in my blood, I&#8217;ve learned over the years that the biggest competition is internal and that this is our biggest opponent. I&#8217;ve won Brazilian Nationals, several Opens, I was on the podium at the European Championships and I still have the dream of winning the World Master. Today my main focus is not to compete, but to train my students and help them achieve great results. As we always train together, at one time or another I sign up for a big event to kill the nostalgia (laughs).</p>

<strong><br />
What&#8217;s the secret to turning an average athlete into a great champion?</strong></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve trained many athletes and today I&#8217;m with a new crop that are the athletes Bruno Sena, Patrick Possamai, Duda Tozoni, Mila Reis, Carol Fernandes, Jonatas Mogli, among others&#8230; The secret to building these good results is to try to understand what the athlete really wants, to have a vision of whether or not he has the conditions and explore what he has best, to create a relationship so that an athlete has confidence in the other athletes in the team. And so be able to extract from them things that even they don&#8217;t believe they can do. And lastly is to be passionate about what you do, and I&#8217;m passionate about the competitive process and my work.</p>
<p><strong>You&#8217;re always training with a great performance against the kids on your team. What are the tricks for the athletes of the Master division to do well against the adult athletes?</strong></p>
<p>Understand that old age is in our head and train without laziness, full of will and willingness. It motivates me and keeps the kids motivated as well.</p>

<p><strong>What&#8217;s the motivational phrase you like to repeat to yourself when you&#8217;re going through a difficult career situation?</strong></p>
<p>No obstacle came to stop me, but to make me stronger for the new challenges. Nothing is by chance, don&#8217;t ever give up!</p>
<p><strong>What is the philosophy behind your school?</strong></p>
<p>Quality in teaching, because we really care about knowing if the student is learning, so that he gets the positive life change and learns all the benefits that sport can give him, on and off the mat.</p>

<p><strong>No sul do Brasil, você tem uma academia e um projeto social voltados para o Jiu-Jitsu, ambos muito elogiados, trabalhos de excelência. O que podemos esperar agora com a sua ida para os Estados Unidos? Quais são as projeções que você faz para o futuro do seu time?</strong></p>
<p><a href="https://instagram.com/marcosvscunha?igshid=MTd4Zm4yZ3cwNW0xcQ=="><strong>MARCOS CUNHA:</strong> </a>Minha mudança para os EUA busca a expansão do meu time, construir uma base para dar suporte aos meus atletas, que almejam lutar nos grandes eventos e isso era uma dificuldade para todos nós. Hoje conseguimos construir essa base e temos mais duas filiais aqui, nos EUA. Assim eu consigo gerar oportunidades para meus atletas e meus professores. Para o próximo ano eu almejo abrir mais filiais e fortalecer o meu processo competitivo por aqui.</p>
<p><strong>Em relação à sua carreira como competidor, quais foram as suas principais conquistas e o que você aprendeu com elas?</strong></p>
<p>Já competi muito nesses 32 anos de Jiu-Jitsu, a competição está no meu sangue, aprendi ao longo desses anos que a maior competição é interna e que esse é o nosso maior adversário. Já ganhei Brasileiros, diversos Opens, fui pódio no Europeu e ainda tenho o sonho de ganhar o Mundial Master. Hoje meu foco maior não é competir, e sim formar meus alunos e ajudá-los a alcançar grandes resultados. Como sempre treinamos juntos, uma hora ou outra eu me inscrevo num grande evento para matar a saudade (risos).</p>

<p><strong>Qual é o segredo para transformar um atleta mediano num grande campeão? </strong></p>
<p>Já formei muitos atletas e hoje estou com uma nova safra que são os atletas Bruno Sena, Patrick Possamai, Duda Tozoni, Mila Reis, Carol Fernandes, Jonatas Mogli, entre outros… O segredo para construir esses bons resultados é buscar entender o que o atleta realmente quer, ter visão se ele tem ou não condições e explorar o que ele tem de melhor, criar um relacionamento para que um atleta tenha confiança nos outros atletas do time. E assim conseguir extrair deles coisas que até eles não acreditam que podem fazer. E por último é ser apaixonado pelo que faz, e eu sou apaixonado pelo processo competitivo e pelo meu trabalho.</p>
<p><strong>Você está sempre treinando com ótima performance contra a garotada da sua equipe. Quais são os macetes para os atletas da divisão Master fazerem bonito contra os atletas adultos?</strong></p>
<p>Entender que a velhice está em nossa cabeça e cair dentro sem preguiça, cheio de vontade e disposição. Isso me motiva e mantém a molecada motivada também.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone  wp-image-242644" src="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/Screenshot_20231109_102927_Instagram-300x234.jpg" alt="" width="564" height="440" srcset="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/Screenshot_20231109_102927_Instagram-300x234.jpg 300w, https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/Screenshot_20231109_102927_Instagram-768x600.jpg 768w, https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/Screenshot_20231109_102927_Instagram-150x117.jpg 150w, https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/Screenshot_20231109_102927_Instagram.jpg 1016w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 564px) 100vw, 564px" /></p>
<p><strong>Qual é a frase motivacional que você gosta de repetir para você mesmo quando está passando por uma situação difícil na carreira? </strong></p>
<p>Nenhum obstáculo veio para me parar e sim me deixar mais forte para os novos desafios. Nada é por acaso, não desista nunca!<br />
<strong><br />
Qual é a filosofia por trás da sua escola? </strong><br />
Qualidade no ensino, pois nos preocupamos realmente em saber se o aluno está aprendendo, para que ele obtenha a mudança de vida positiva e aprenda todos os benefícios que o esporte pode dar para ele, dentro e fora do tatame.</p>
