Today, Valente Brothers once again hosted the IX Hélio Gracie Self-Defense Challenge. The event displayed students’ excellent technical level. Participants were challenged with realistic street attacks and had to react instinctively. This event presents a valuable opportunity for students to perform under pressure.
The Valente Brothers Professors would like to congratulate every student who accepted the challenge and contributed to a wonderful experience.
