KING PEDRINHA

Just a few words to say that I'm a 29 years old Italian "goodfella"..I live in Milan with all my family: my mom, GuGu & MiMi (..the craziest dog I've ever seen and a black'n'white cat that's getting fatter and fatter!!) and Neide, my wonderful girlfriend!!
I've been training judo since when I was 5..I won two times the Italian Nationals and now I'm a 2° dan judo black belt..7 years ago I started training jiu-jitsu with my two friends, Gustavo (..a Sukata brown belt student from Buenos Aires!!) and Fede..and I fell in love with it!!
At the end of 2005 I created with Fede (..the first Italian brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt!!) ITALIAN CONNECTION Jiu-Jitsu Family, the largest network of brazilian jiu-jitsu academies in Italy..including FAMILIA MILANIMAL (..my academy!!) in Milan, TRIBE JIU-JITSU (..Fede's academy!!) in Rome and many other schools all over Italy!!
After winning several tournaments here in Europe during these years, in January 2008 I got the gold medal in the brown belt division at the European Jiu-Jitsu Open Championship, the most important jiu-jitsu tournament here in Europe, and consequently I earned my black belt!!
I'm really interested in graphics (..I'm used to create all MILANIMAL gadgets and t-shirts design!!), chicano and all the southamerican cultures, tattoos..I listen to a different kinds of music and I read everything..wherever I go I'm used to take my kimono with me and to learn as soon as possible some words to say in the local language!!
If you want to know more about me, my family, my friends and my academy, look at my pictures or contact me!!
Valeu..
