The Miyao brothers are famous for their relentless berimbolo, but many have wondered how their style and persistence would translate to black belt competition. The proof is in the pudding, or is it? Have the Miyao brothers experienced continued success by sticking to the same formula, or have the began to evolve?
The truth is that the Miyao brothers have continued to build upon their strengths in the berimbolo game, but have added new elements to their passing and guard style that has prevented opponents from over-compensating against their primary attacks. This evolution has only added to the devastating game that both Miyao’s bring to the jiu jitsu competition world. Check out our latest video above and look at some of the most recent competition footage of these young phenoms.
What do you think? Whats the magic formula against these two guardeiros?

One of the best ways to study a move is to watch top-level competitors execute it in competition. You can see all the work and detail that go into finishing that move against another top competitor. Unfortunately, it’s hard to string enough of these together to truly study a move in detail, so we’ve done it for you. This is the first in a series of training journals that takes 20-30 examples of a move executed in competition and strings them back-to-back for film study.
In every other highly competitive sport in the world film study is ingrained in a teams preparation. This has been slow to catch on in jiu jitsu because often players don’t know how or what to study. This certainly isn’t the only way to study film, but it certainly takes a page out of American football’s book. Often when preparing for an opponent a team will watch their competitor run one specific play over and over again to prepare against it. This means a coach somewhere cut the film up and put all of those plays back-to-back. This is our idea with the training journal. Take one move, and play it back-to-back for efficient study. We hope you enjoy.
