THE MINIMUM YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE HISTORY OF JIU-JITSU IN BRAZIL: The Jiu-Jitsu implementation timeline according to evidence and characters.

Marco Ferreira is a highly recognized sports scientist in Brazil on matters related to jiu-jitsu and athlete training. He is a jiu-jitsu professor at the biggest Brazilian University - The Federal University of Rio de Janeiro.

In this Book he ask you:

Are you sure you know the origin of Brazilian jiu-jitsu?

Who told you the story you know? does he also know the story or did he just reproduce what someone told him?

I would venture to say that 97% of jiu-jitsu teachers and masters do not know the true history of jiu-jitsu.

Is that you? Will you still not know the history of the sport you practice?

There are several currents that defend the most varied theories, among them, those who believe that jiu-jitsu emerged in India, those who credit China, and another current that vigorously defends that jiu-jitsu is the creation of “Uncle Hélio" . The fact is that researchers of the highest standing and people who dominate the notorious knowledge have confused over time with the true history of jiu-jitsu in Brazil and in the world.

This text brings some evidence collected by researchers from the group of Goshinjutsukan study over more than 20 years of research on the history of jiu-jitsu and its implementation in Brazil.

Everything that is presented (duly based on evidence) here is intended to inform, and never defame or deny, we will only put the evidence we have to the test, so that you reader can make your own judgment of what is fact, legend, religion, faith and bad faith.

We’ll show us the characters such as Sada Miyako, Mario Aleixo, Conde Koma, Donato Pires, The Gracies Brothers and many others.
