The man to beat at brown belt in 2004 was unquestionably Andre Galvao. A protégé of Fernando Terere– who was originally from Sao Paulo– Galvao had one of the most complete and entertaining styles in the sport. When Andre competed at brown belt it almost looked like he moved to the rhythm of the samba drums played by his hundreds of supporters from the Cantagalo favela, always there in full force. From takedowns to sweeps, guard pull interceptions and amazing scrambles which somehow always led to submission, Andre simply made it look easy. That year he had one of the most amazing campaigns ever, which included getting double gold at both the World Cup and IBJJF Worlds, held over back to back weekends and winning every match by submission. Under the tutelage of Fernando Terere and Eduardo Telles, Galvao was destined for greatness. But– much like any super star brown belt– his true worth would be determined at the next level, fighting with the world’s best “faixa pretas”. Going into 2005 and now a black belt, Andre was fighting on the front lines as one of the leaders of TT Team, due to the issues surrounding founder Fernando Terere at the time. It was now up to Galvao and Telles to take the team into competitions and continue to lead by example and win at the highest level. And Andre did just that. Competing and staying active as much as possible Andre fought in as many events as he could, all the while continuing to expand the TT army. Even more impressive, he was still able to achieve the same results and eventually became a world champion at black belt in his first year. And, so they say, the legacy of Andre Galvao was born. He would continue his winning ways and still competes today, but now under a new flag. Andre Galvao continues to excel in technical innovation and now leads the top jiu-jitsu team in the world: Atos.
