Alexandre “Gigi” Paiva is a figure of extreme importance in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu‘s history, not only was he one of the founding members of the multiple world champion team Alliance, he also coached several important grapplers, such as Fernando “Tereré”, Leonardo Leite, Mitsuyoshi Hayakawa among many others, including his own son Vitor Genovesi.
One of the most exciting grapplers to have ever stepped on a mat, Antonio Schembri also known as ‘Nino’ Schembri is a jiu jitsu black belt under Carlos Gracie Junior, who blasted into the BJJ scene in the mid 1990’s competing for the Gracie Barra academy. Nino Schembri quickly made a name for himself as the king of the omoplata, a game he developed making better use of his highly flexible and offensive guard game, being also one of the first grapplers recorded using the ‘lasso guard’ and the ‘rubber guard’. He is considered by many (BJJ Heroes included) as one of the best guard players to have ever competed in the sport.
