Let's make this birthday one to remember.

72 years old (Born on October 22, 1952)

Happy Birthday, Romero Cavalcanti! The mats tremble at the mere mention of your name—the legendary coach who transformed sweeps and submissions into championship gold. Under your vigilant eye, Alliance Jiu-Jitsu Team became a squad feared globally; you've molded fearless warriors who've clinched Brazilian and World Championships like it's their weekend hobby.

Still, beyond victories on podiums or medals around necks, you're cherished for teaching us life's deepest lessons—like how gently choking someone out is actually caring deeply. So today we're raising our gis (and cautious awareness!) in celebration: Thanks for every laugh and lesson—and here's to many more birthdays spent guarding necks worldwide!
