Become a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Instructor with IBJJA – Transform Your Life and Your Community
Have you ever dreamed of teaching Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu — of changing lives, building community, and being a true role model in the martial arts world?
Or perhaps you’re already a martial artist, and you feel the calling to deepen your knowledge and share it with others?
Maybe you live in a place where BJJ is still rare, and you wonder: “How can I bring this amazing art to my town, my country, my people?”
IBJJA (International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Association) is here to make that dream possible.
Led by Professor Renato Migliaccio, a 6th-degree black belt in BJJ, 5th-degree black belt in Judo, ADCC veteran, M-1 Global MMA veteran, Pan American Champion, Brazilian Nationals Champion, and Worlds medalist — the IBJJA offers you a path to become a professional, respected, and student-centered Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instructor.
A Mission Bigger Than Just Techniques
At IBJJA, we believe that being an instructor is not just about knowing techniques — anyone can watch a DVD or a YouTube video.
It’s about building a gym that serves your community.
It’s about creating a safe, empowering environment where students — kids, adults, beginners, and competitors — feel welcome, protected, and inspired.
Our mission is simple but powerful:
Expand Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to every corner of the world, with higher standards, stronger ethics, and real leadership.
We don’t operate like the typical competitive teams you might know.
We operate like a federation: a structure where instructors are trained, mentored, and empowered to build sustainable businesses and lifelong communities.
When you join IBJJA, you’re not just learning to teach Jiu-Jitsu.
You are becoming a force of positive change.

Why IBJJA Is Different
In 2005, when Professor Renato started traveling across Europe to teach BJJ, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu was almost non-existent outside Brazil and the USA.
There were no black belts in many countries, and even fewer opportunities to learn properly.
Today, 20 years later, thanks to the IBJJA methodology, over 50 black belts have been formed, many of whom started with zero experience.
They now run thriving academies, many with 300+ students, teaching full-time, living their dream, and growing the sport in their communities.
We don’t just certify instructors — we build careers. We build futures. We build leaders.
If you start your journey with us today, imagine where you could be in 5, 10, or 20 years — standing on the mat, seeing hundreds of lives changed because YOU decided to lead.
Our Core Beliefs:
✔️ Students always come first.
✔️ Technique must be combined with ethics.
✔️ Teaching is a responsibility, not an ego trip.
✔️ A gym should serve its community, not exploit it.
✔️ Jiu-Jitsu is for everyone, everywhere.
Where and How You’ll Train
