This man is my hero. Pedro Valente has had the biggest impact in my life. I've never had a role model that was positive, I've never looked up to anyone, I've never wanted to be like anyone until I met the Valente brothers. Pedro says "jui jitsu is the triumph of sheer intelligence over brute strength" I live my life by that. So many times I turned to violence and anger to resolve my issues instead of using my mind and thinking of better options. He gave me the courage, knowledge and most important confidence to make it easy to travel this bumpy road called life. Never said thank you because I knew I could never give him what he gave me and many others, so instead of thank you I try to live a life that my hero will approve of. The Valente brothers make good men better.
Quarantine 2020 listening to Professor Pedro because the Academy is closed & my daughter misses her jitsu class. Literally the #1 reason I want quarantine to be over so we can all go back to VB 🦋 starting with hubby, baby, and me. Thank You 🙏 🅿️
Thank you Professor for the life lessons from jiu jitsu. As a student of jiu jitsu, I strive to have the calmness and collection you exhibited. Proud to be a student of Jiu Jitsu. Profound respect.
Dear Pedro I ask that you please accept my most sincerest empathetic condolences . We can work together as a missionary team to ultimately assist in bringing ideal enlightenment not only to ourselves, at the same to others as well. Your Friend Leon Levy ( aka Lilakara das)

I feel the same way brother. This man is a prophet, never met anyone like him. Hes truly amazing.
This guy is simply on another level, a level almost none of us will ever obtain.
