Our History:
In the 1980s, Master Romero Calvalcanti and two of his two black belt students – Fabio Gurgel and Alexandre Paiva – followed different paths to find success in their own academies. They ended up competing among themselves, creating an unintended rivalry along the way. In1993 the three made the decision to form an alliance, so they could instead work together in pursuit of championships and overall success.
In 2014, their Jiu-Jitsu academies expanded and formed their own affiliations, so they decided to create an association to unify the teaching method and implement Fabio Gurgel’s management skills. As a result, the Alliance Association was born. Today the Alliance Team has over 300 affiliates worldwide with a renowned teaching methodology. As part of Alliance’s continued growth, an academy was established in Chula Vista to bring world-class Jiu-Jitsu to this thriving, historic community.
