About Team Domingos

Our Story

Founded with a vision to create more than just a martial arts academy, Team Domingos was born from the belief that jiu jitsu is a path to personal transformation and community building.

Our founder, Professor Domingos, began his journey in the art of jiu jitsu over two decades ago. Through years of training, competing, and teaching, he developed a philosophy that combines the traditional wisdom of martial arts with modern training methodologies.

Today, Team Domingos stands as a beacon of excellence in the jiu jitsu community, fostering an environment where students of all levels can grow, learn, and discover their potential.

Defense

Stay calm and escape danger.
