    I am sure there is many good schools in Sao Paulo, but you would be crazy not to check out Fabio Gurgels school. He is not only an amazing fighter, but you can just look at what his students have done (Marcelo Garcia, Tarsis Humphreys, Lucas Lepri..) to know that he may be possibly a better coach then fighter.

    Plus, he has good english.

    I have attended a seminar with Gurgel and his jiu jitsu knowledge is amazing.
