The Valente Brothers started learning from Grand Master Hélio Gracie at the tender age of 2 and are fully committed to preserving his technique, teaching method and philosophy both on and off the mat.
Three generations of the Valente family were taught directly by Hélio Gracie over a span of 56 years. The relationship between the Valente and the Gracie families is based on friendship, loyalty and respect.
Our Youth Program provides kids with the defensive skills they need to stand up to bullies while teaching discipline, raising self-esteem, making them fit and strong and helping them become the best they can be.
Valente Brothers Jiu-Jitsu is the official representation of Grandmaster Hélio Gracie, in Florida. Professors Pedro, Gui and Joaquim Valente started training directly under the Grandmaster at the age of 2 years old in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and were his loyal disciples and protégés until he passed away in January of 2009. At Valente Brothers (VB) we are fully committed to preserving Hélio Gracie’s vision, teaching method, and ideals both on and off the mat.
Our mission is to provide the most effective self-defense instruction in the world by giving students the elements to defend themselves in real life, with no rules, no points, and no time limits.

First, the system teaches the most powerful self defense method in the world as proven in the original Ultimate Fighting Championships (UFC).
