Victor Guerra

Victor was born in Brasilia, Brazil. His first experience in martial arts was when he began training Capoeira, a style that is known for its dynamic, acrobatic, and complex maneuvers. In 2008 Victor saw a sign in a gym for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and given the increasing popularity, he thought he would give it a try. Victor trained exclusively under Professor Pedro Galiza and was awarded the Faixa Preta in November 2019. Victor is an avid competitor at all levels both locally as well as internationally and his accomplishments include Brasilia State Champion and competing and placing in Abu Dhabi Intl. trials. At Urbana Academy Victor instructs BJJ kids and adult classes.
