Tonight we got a very special treat, as we welcomed Draculino to the Gracie-Barra Andalucia Marbella academy. It was a sort of homecoming as he joined us in class, reuniting with his two students (and our instructors) Edson Jorge and Marcelo Azevedo. In a very special class, Edson showed us a favorite shin-on-bicep guard sweep, that was super sweet. We’re all looking forward to the seminar this weekend with Draculino.

Remember folks, Draculino is the instructor of recent world-champion Romulo Barral! Serious stuff — you don’t want to miss this opportunity!

Tonight we also bid farewell to the Guitar Player extraordinaire of MMA, UK fighter Mr. Lee “I’ve still got half my teeth” Doski. Lee had a bit of a swollen knee (due probably to his 23 training session of the day) and so couldn’t train with us, but he was there in person and spirit. We are going to miss the heck out of Lee as he heads back to the UK for his upcoming Cage Rage fight. It was an emotional send-off, and we’re so looking forward to having him back in town.
