Without a doubt, one of my favorite BJJ athletes is Caio Terra. I had the chance to attend one of his seminars last year and it was a total game-changer for me. Not just in what we learned, but how well he taught the techniques and how important it was that we actually learned them. If you aren’t aware of his accomplishments, just check out what Caio did in 2012 alone!
- 2012 IBJJ Pro League – Champion
- American National No Gi and Absolute –Champion (2nd year in a row)
- American National Gi- Champion
- Metamoris Super Figher vs Jeff Glover – Winner
- Vegas Open – Champion (weight and closed out absolute)
- Pan American Championship (IBJJF) – Champion (2nd year in a row)

I feel very fortunate to have the chance to interview him. There’s some great insights and even some funny answers below. Make sure you check out the last question about why Caio no longer likes skittles!
