Listen "050 Gustavo Bessa Brazilian Top Team Jiu-Jitsu athlete & coach on being a fighter and the benefits of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu"
Episode Synopsis
My guest for episode 50 of The Courage, Coaching and Counseling Podcast is my friend and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu coach Gustavo "Banzai" Bessa. I've trained with Gus for over 10 years.
We talk about his background, moving to the US from Brazil with his family, wrestling, lessons from his MMA career, recovering from the pandemic and from open heart surgery at just 31 years old, how he has managed and grown his gym Brazilian Top Team Happy Valley, opening a 2nd gym in Oregon City. We also discuss the benefits of BJJ for adults and children, how parents can encourage and support their kids in training jiu jitsu and how to get motivated to stick with and start with BJJ or any other hard things in life or this year.
If you're local or visit Portland, I hope we get a chance to train with you sometime.
