In today's episode we are so pleased to bring you another huge staple in the STL BJJ scene...the head of Revive BJJ in St. Charles and a marquee member of TAC Team - Junior Silva! Junior is a huge part of many people's bjj tenure throughout STL and his story dives deep into his youth in Brazil, coming to the US (Miami by way of STL), running multiple businesses here locally, his faith as a Christian and how this plays a part in raising his kids. A soft spoken guy with a hell of a lot of heart, we are so grateful for this time with Junior and we know there's something in here for everyone!
