Client Reviews

My name is Luciana and I am 13. I have been training with my mom and Dad, Lidvani and Ricardo, since I was a little girl and they have thought to me everything they know about volleyball and about competition games. Last week I reached the highest point in my career as a player until now - I've been selected to train for the USA national team and that was only possible because of my parents and because of their knowledge and prefessionalism. I am sure your kids will be as fortunate as I was to train with the best! Luciana Yasmim Paiva Pereira Celebration, FL
Best training in Orlando area. Great Brazilian coaches. My daughter became a winner training with them for only 8 months. I strongly recommend BRAVO ACADEMY. Paula Fregonesi Celebration, FL
Ricardo worked as a volleyball coach in many elite volleyball clubs, excellent athlete and an example to be followed. He taught me everything I know about volleyball and life. He works with competence, passion and motivation. He taught me to fight, to believe in my interior strength, to run after my dreams, to respect my opponents, to act with good principles, to seek personal growth through adversity and he always supported me when I was feeling down due to my accident. I would never be here and be an athlete if it wasn't for him. I am sure that all the children that have the opportunity to get to know him and train with him will realize how spectacular he can be. Janaina Petit Cunha Professional Paralympic Athlete
Ricardo and Lidvani are not only great professionals, but also great coaches. Your children will have the opportunity to learn from winners, and to interact with other children in a healthy competitive environment, and learn how to play volleyball and how to become a winner regardless the final scores of any game.
