3 Golds
1 Bronze
A team of our guys (and girl) took part in the latest FBT THAILAND BJJ/SUB-GRAPPLING OPEN. Melvynna and Mitch won 3 golds and a bronze respectively. Congratulation to them! And kudos to Aziz, Justin, Charles and Jamie for stepping up. From what we've read and heard, it was a hugely successful event. It must have been a good experience for everyone.

We found a couple of Mel's fights from this event on youtube:

About Gustavo Machado
Gustavo Machado, was born in Rio de Janeiro and started training in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in 1994 in São José dos Campos, at Liga JJ Club with Sergio Lisboa (Black Belt 5th degree), who is student of Osvaldo Alves (Gracie Barra). Gustavo began his path to the black belt among the greatest BJJ fighters in Brazil.
Gustavo went on to win the State Championships two times and graduated as a Lawyer from the University.
Gustavo decided to move into Sydney in an effort to make BJJ as big in Australia as in Brazil and joined the Gracie Barra Sydney School as an instructor.
Since arriving in Australia, Prof. Gustavo has been working hard. He has also taught grappling techniques to rugby teams in Australia.
Competing as a Black Belt in Australia, Gustavo remains unconquered in his division below 67 KG.
Gustavo worked as a coach for many champions in Jiu Jitsu, Submission Wrestling and Mixed Martial Arts with International standard. One of his students is the famous fighter Mark Hunt, the K1 Kickboxing Grand Prix Champion now fighting in Mixed Martial Arts with Pride FC in Japan with victories over super stars such as Wanderlei Silva and Mirko Crocop giving him a position amongst the Top Heavyweight MMA fighters in the world.

CONGRATS TO OUR NEW PURPLE AND BLUE!
Kreation is proud to announce that Scott Calver and Joe-Jitsu had been promoted to purple and blue belts respectively, by Cristiano!
Prior to them getting their new belts, Scott and Joe were tricked into participating in a class game, which had them remove their old belts, got blindfolded and had to search for their belts across the mats, and continued to grapple blindfolded. Upon removing the blindfolds, they discovered new belts around their waists. It must have been Sul's idea.
A huge congratulation to Scott and Joe-Jitsu as they begin their next phase of journey!
