March, 5th 2011.     The Jupiter Jiu Jitsu Fight Team lead by coach Tim Bruce traveled to Brazilian Top Team Melbourne, FL. for the honor of being on the mat with and learning from BJJ & MMA legend Murilo Bustamante.     It was an amazing experience to be allowed access to the vast fighting knowledge that is Murilo Bustamante. A true master and legend Murilo was extraordinarily accommodating showing positions relevant to the level of accomplishment exhibited by attendees. As Murilo interacted with everyone in attendance he broke positions down to their core. His ability to explain and demonstrate positions promoted understanding and the ability to execute positions flawlessly. Throughout the seminar there was no shortage of black belts on the mat to make sure everyone was on the same page. Our host Edgar Dutra was joined by Joao Amaral, Beto Nunes, Pedro Lima and Tim Bruce. If Murilo is due to be in your area anytime in the future do not miss the opportunity, his MMA and BJJ knowledge can help anyone at any level become better!!!     The Jupiter Jiu Jitsu Fight Team would like to thank Murilo for taking time out of his busy schedule to visit Florida and share his knowledge with us. Also thank you Edgar Dutra our gracious host for opening your doors to us and treating everyone like family! Joao Amaral, Beto Nunes, Pedro Lima it was a pleasure to be on the mat with you all! Tim Bruce thank you for getting the team to and from the seminar safely.      We look forward to training at BTT Melbourne, FL. again soon. Ossssss!!!
