 “If you’ve ever left the mats thinking, ‘That wasn’t me,’ you’re not alone.”

Many Jiu-Jitsu competitors, especially BJJ Masters athletes, feel the same way. The key isn’t just training harder — it’s learning how to access your authentic game under pressure so you can perform the way you train.

That’s why I created the BJJ Mental Coach Masters Community — a place designed to help you build the mindset, confidence, and emotional resilience required to compete as your true self. Inside, you’ll get access to online courses on mental skills training for Jiu-Jitsu, monthly classes with me, exclusive content, and support from a community of like-minded competitors who want to grow on and off the mats.

 

If authenticity matters to you — if you want to compete as the same person you are in training, and carry that strength into your life — this is your next step.

When you practice your BJJ mental skills consistently, you unlock three key benefits:

  • Enhanced performance under pressure

  • Greater confidence and self-satisfaction

  • Increased enjoyment of training and competing 

You already know how frustrating it feels to train strong for months and then freeze when it matters. That’s why your mindset in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is just as important as your drilling or conditioning.

Inside The BJJ Mental Coach ecosystem, you’ll find the exact tools you need to reduce nerves, build emotional resilience, and show up as your most authentic self when it counts. Your membership includes online courses, exclusive community content, and monthly mindset classes — all designed to help you compete with confidence and grow beyond the mats.

" I would like to talk about the work of a great professional and now friend Gustavo Dantas  "The BJJ Mental Coach”. Since I started to implement his methods, I have noticed the difference before and after working with him, and feeling more efficient not only in Jiu-Jitsu, but in my personal and professional life as well. Certainly today I am a better person than I was yesterday, and tomorrow will be an even better person than today. He gave me the tools necessary for this evolution. I trust his work 100%, and I am sure that we still have a lot more room to grow and evolve together. Now I understand how having a Mental Coach can help you to perform even better in under pressure situations like Jiu-Jitsu. If you are interested in growing not only as an athlete but also as a human being, Gustavo Dantas this is the one."

"My partnership with the master Gustavo Dantas was a big step in my career, in addition to winning a great friend, he has helped me overcome my limits, to always be motivated and disciplined regardless of the results in competitions, and always keep in mind positive thoughts. Gustavo taught that in addition to the hard training, the mind also has to be in tune in will to succeed and grow, each day, one step at a time." 

Luan Carvalho
Black Belt Brazilian National Champion
 

"The BJJ Mental Coach showed me a world of "vision", where the mind can achieve higher levels that you can imagine to achieve your objectives. A good positive mindset, accompanied by a humility to recognize their own mistakes, and just for the fact that you’re attempting to change the mistakes, is already a personal victory, whether on and/or of the mat. I am far from being perfect in these two areas, but I'm happy to know that I am on the right route with the right mental coaching guidance to give me more clarity to overcome adversities in my everyday life and making wiser choices with even more awareness. I took many lessons that apply for sports and life."
