In this rare seminar, TT founding members, Fernando Terere & Eduardo Telles, teach a seminar to an academy in Sao Paulo. With them, a young Andre Galvao. This is when TT Team was still part of the Master Team and just before they seperated to create their own team and affiliation.

Fernando Augusto, commonly known by his nickname Tererê is one of the most talented and charismatic Brazilian jiu-jitsu competitors to have ever stepped on a mat. This multiple time world medallist became a black belt world champion at the age of 20 and was regarded as a Pound for Pound best during the early 2000s. His impact in modern-day jiu-jitsu was felt in his development of positions such as the Toreando, the Leg Drag, and many others while having great impact also as a coach, having helped raise the game of fighters such as André Galvao, Rubens Charles, Michael Langhi, Lucas Lepri, and mire; The story of Terere will soon be on the big screen in the film currently being filmed titled O Faixa Preta
A Verdadeira História de Fernando Tererê where the role of Terere will soon be portayed by Brazilian actor Jonathan Azevedo

Eduardo Telles is a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt under Fabio Gurgel and one of the most creative grapplers in the World. Famed for being a fan of the “Esquijitsu” (a nickname applied to his game which translates to: weird Jiu Jitsu) he created several attacks from the turtle position, a position that was deemed a weaker position by most grapplers before Telles created the turtle guard, revolutionizing what once was defensive ‘go-to’ move. Eduardo Telles also created several trademark setups from a position that became famous as the Octupus Guard.

In 2002 the Alliance Team split and Eduardo Telles followed the path of the dissidents helping to open the Master Team and later the TT Team with his friend Fernando Terere. TT was successful from the get-go with some students showing that the team had tremendous potential, unfortunately by the end of 2004 Fernando Augusto entered his personal struggle with drug dependence and depression, and so the team was terminated. Telles decided to open another academy, this time presided by himself which he called Nine Nine, the meaning behind that name was that 99 is a reference in proximity to the number 100 which means perfection, the goal of Telles.

André Galvão, also known as “Deco” is a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt under Luis “Careca” Dagmar, having also worked extensively with Fernando Terere. Galvão is regarded as one of the greatest competitors to have ever graced the sport, a reputation conquered through important titles such as IBJJF World Champion, IBJJF Pan American Champion (8x), and ADCC champion (2x). André Galvão also competed in mixed martial arts (MMA), having retired from cage-fighting with a record of 5-2-0 to lead the Atos Jiu-Jitsu Academy. Heading the team’s headquarters in San-Diego, CA Galvão established one of the strongest BJJ teams in of the modern era of the sport.
