The Calf Slicer is one of the most painful techniques in the entire arsenal of BJJ techniques. The way to apply the pressure is through the use of your shinbone which you will place underneath the weakest point of your opponent’s calf. Then you will pull down on the toes of your opponent and this will create the pressure that you want.

He received his black belt from Luis “Careca” Dagmar, having also worked extensively with Fernando Terere. Galvao is also a former mixed martial artist, with an MMA record of 5-2-0, before he retired to lead the Atos Jiu-Jitsu Academy's Headquarters in San Diego, California.
Today, Atos is considered one of the best jiu-jitsu academies in the world, producing World Champion athletes at all levels, from juvenile and white belt all the way to black belt.
