2 Brothers BFC - Feijó

2 Brothers BFC Feijó is a traditional Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu academy located in Feijó, Portugal, with a rich lineage tracing back to the legendary Carlson Gracie team. The academy was founded by brothers Júlio "Pudim" César da Silva Lima and Sandro "Bala" da Silva Lima, both disciples of the late Master Banni Cavalcanti. In 1999, Sandro "Bala" emigrated to Portugal seeking a better quality of life and began gathering a small group of students at the Complexo Desportivo do Feijó, becoming one of the pioneers responsible for introducing and spreading Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Portugal.

The academy operates under the motto "Loyalty makes you Family!" and emphasizes values that go beyond competition and technique. At 2 Brothers BFC Feijó, the philosophy centers on 100% dedication, commitment, effort, and support for every student. The team believes in forming not just fighters, but well-rounded individuals who embrace Jiu-Jitsu as a way of life.

The head instructor, Professor José Gomes, began his martial arts journey at age 5 with Judo and discovered Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in 2001 through Sandro "Bala" Lima. From the beginning, José Gomes found his passion not only in combat but especially in teaching and motivating students. His primary focus has always been on forming people first, making the 2 Brothers motto a reality. The academy proudly carries the lineage of Mitsuyo Maeda (Conde Koma) → Carlos Gracie → Carlson Gracie → Banni Cavalcanti, representing one of the most prestigious lineages in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu history.
