Professor Marcos Flexa is a 6th degree black belt who received his training directly from Master Carlson Gracie Sr. The academy emphasizes the traditional Carlson Gracie approach to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, which has produced black belts and MMA champions worldwide. The extensive schedule offers classes for students from beginner to advanced levels, with a focus on improving techniques and physical condition. The academy provides specialized competition training, where athletes receive observation and guidance from all black belt instructors through 1.5-hour sessions focusing on specific positions and drills.
The coaching team includes several accomplished black belts: Marcos Flexa (head coach, 6th degree black belt under Carlson Gracie Sr.), Olga Lyashevska (World Champion and European Champion black belt), Daniel Bertina (first black belt from Carlson Gracie Amsterdam), Desmond V D Berg (World Champion and European Champion black belt), and Milovan 'Misha' Janjic (first Serbian black belt promoted at the academy). The academy also maintains connections with Carlson Gracie Jr. (6th degree black belt, head coach of Team Carlson Gracie worldwide) and Marcelo Alonso (6th degree black belt, coach of U.S. Army Rangers and Special Forces).
