My story
People call me Guimma, or Coach Guimma. I discovered martial arts at the age of five. It taught me discipline and how to navigate hard times. It helped me discover who I am.
I am a former Brazilian Muay Thai champion. I have competed all over the world for more than ten years, including in A-Class Dutch kickboxing, one of the toughest leagues in the world.
Being from Curitiba, Brazil, where Muay Thai for MMA was born, I had the privilege of watching the legendary Chute Boxe gym grow from the mat. Its style developed many UFC world champions, such as Anderson Silva, Wanderlei Silva, Shogun and Cris Cyborg — whom I had the pleasure of coaching — as well as many other professional fighters.
I meet all kinds of people every day, and the truth is that everybody is fighting for something. Now I want to use my expertise to help everyone. In my journey as a coach, I have watched my students benefit not only in their physical fitness, but also in their quality of life, mental health, focus at work, confidence and even their personal relationships.
Looking forward to meeting you, and to helping you not only reach your goals, but surpass them.
