Description

In this episode, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt Gledson “Cigano” De Silva takes us inside his incredible journey from Brazil to New Zealand. From overcoming the challenges of learning a new language to building a thriving gym and community, Cigano shares how Jiu Jitsu gave him confidence, resilience, and purpose. We dive into his innovative lapel game, his mission to grow the sport in New Zealand, and his vision of becoming a world champion. He also introduces his lapel course, designed to help practitioners at every level unlock new possibilities on the mats. This is an inspiring conversation about mindset, perseverance, and the power of Jiu Jitsu to transform lives.
