His students have won multiple World Championship titles, and under his instruction ONYA became the first Australian team ever to win an IBJJF World Championships team trophy \u2013 the most prestigious Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competition in the world. His current focus is training world-class BJJ practitioners and sharing his knowledge with the wider BJJ community.<\/p><p>Thiago was born and grew up in S\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil. According to Thiago, S\u00e3o Paulo was not a very safe city when he was growing up, so learning martial arts was a natural way to learn how to defend himself. Thiago moved to Melbourne when he was offered a position to teach; the club that hired him helped him relocate, and he trained and taught in Melbourne for almost 10 years. He now lives in Brazil, where he continues to teach, and visits Australia often to reinforce his teachings for ONYA\u2019s Australian branch and to hold seminars and gradings.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c85d059 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c85d059\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><em>Pictured: EMA BJJ Head Coach Alex Tse (left) receiving his black belt from Coach Thiago Stefanutti (right).<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-79c6514 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"79c6514\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6a2e7d6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"6a2e7d6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">EMA Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Lineage<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8fc61ce elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"8fc61ce\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1612\" height=\"922\" src=\"https:\/\/eaglema.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/BJJ-Lineage1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-7822\" alt=\"EMA BJJ Lineage\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n    <div class=\"xs_social_share_widget xs_share_url after_content \t\tmain_content  wslu-style-1 wslu-share-box-shaped wslu-fill-colored wslu-none wslu-share-horizontal wslu-theme-font-no wslu-main_content\">\n\n\t\t\n        <ul>\n\t\t\t        <\/ul>\n    <\/div> \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thiago Stefanutti Head of ONYA Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Thiago Stefanutti is Head Coach Alex Tse\u2019s Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) coach and mentor, and the head of the ONYA Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu association.
