A few choice pics of Professor Rigan Machado spending time on the mats in Melbourne, Perth and Auckland during his recent visit down-under.
Students and coaches alike were well aware that they were a part of a larger legacy ... and the opportunity of the present would no doubt be looked back upon as a part of history in the future.
The impact the Machado Brothers have made upon the world BJJ landscape is at once both deep and lasting.
Bigger and even better plans are already being made for next year.
