Professor Fabio Holanda has led his GMA BTT Canada team to victory once more, this time near their home turf. The Montreal-based academy was successful in securing three trips to the 2014 World Championship at the Ontario International Open held May 3-4.
Terrie Schauer was the first to compete and win in the women’s blue belt light absolute earning her travel expenses to the Worlds.
A week after returning from the WPJJC in Abu Dhabi with a first place win, BTT purple belt Yacinta Nguyen continued her winning streak by securing two more gold medals in both her weight division and the heavy purple/brown/black belt absolute to earn her ticket.
Joining them this year is well-known veteran BJJ fighter and black belt Lee Villeneuve, who not only swept his division and the absolute in gi, but pulled off a repeat double gold performance in the no-gi divisions as well.
Over all BTT, upheld their reputation taking first place in no-gi and second place in gi as a team.
