BELT PROMOTION REQUIREMENTS
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a very individual sport. No two people perform every move the same. Therefore, the requirements for a rank are not the same for everyone. Student A could learn 4 certain sweeps and sweep everyone. Student B could learn 4 different sweeps and use those 4 different sweeps to enjoy the same success as student A. That is where a great teacher comes in. Robson is a master instructor. He can look at your game and modify everything to fit you, your body, and ability. He then evaluates your performance base on you! Not what other people are doing. So is there a curriculum for Jiu Jitsu? No, not in the traditional sense. There are requirements and performance goals, but there is no way to show you a piece of paper and say this is what you need to know for each rank.
PRIVATE LESSONS
Jiu-Jitsu is a very unique martial art. Robson believes the best way to learn is one on one. Getting stuck in class with only 15 minutes of learning a day does not support fast learning. Sometimes your partners can not give you the correct defense. You learn something in class and only find that when you use it against someone else your success was short lived. That is why he wants to be your partner. Each time you drill a position he will not let you make a mistake. Your learning starts with Robson as your partner and you begin to develop skills that will last forever. Do you have a position that gives you trouble such as escaping side control or defending the guard pass? This is where private lessons can take years off your training. Drill guard defenses with the best in the world. Robson becomes your dedicated training partner – Now that is how you get good fast
Real Student Testimonials
Josef Manuel
"I’m deeply grateful for the incredible opportunity to learn from Robson Moura, a true legend in the world of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I was honored to be the first non-Brazilian promoted to black belt by him, and I’m now proud to hold my 4th-degree black belt under his continued mentorship.
Robinho is not only an IBJJF Hall of Famer, but also a master technician, passionate teacher, and world-class competitor. His knowledge and approach to Jiu-Jitsu have been nothing short of transformative.
If you’re serious about elevating your game, I wholeheartedly recommend training with Professor Robson Moura—an unforgettable experience that will change the way you see Jiu-Jitsu."
Alex Cher
"All I can say is WOW! I have been training jiu jitsu on and off for about 10 years now and decided to take a couple private lessons with Robson while I was in town. As an instructor he is humble, knowledgeable, caring and his skill and techniques are second to none. After a few rolls, he was able to teach me simple and effective techniques that I was able to immediately incorporate into my jiu jitsu game. Awesome experience and cannot wait to go back again. Thank you Robson!"
Ed LeMonnier
"Always a great learning opportunity for me when I come to visit.
Everyone is friendly and welcoming. As a visiting Black Belt, there was never a sense of anyone trying to test me during our training and sparring sessions.
If you live in Tampa and you're looking to improve your physical and mental health,. you really need to check out RMNU HQ.
They have Fundamental and Advanced classes, but more importantly: the teammates that you will be training with are friendly and encouraging. They are there to help you get better.."
