The Valente brothers were born into the jūjutsu (jiu-jitsu) tradition. Pedro, Gui and Joaquim began learning jūjutsu from their father before they could walk. At the tender age of two, Pedro, Gui and Joaquim were already taking private lessons from Grandmaster Hélio Gracie. Growing up, the Valente brothers trained daily at the Academia Gracie in Rio de Janeiro under Hélio Gracie. Pedro Sr. always wanted his sons to learn jūjutsu as a complete fighting system. He realized that training methods had changed from the time he learned in the 50’s. In order to prepare students for tournaments, group classes almost exclusively focused on ground grappling techniques. To mitigate this issue, in addition to taking regular private classes from Grandmaster Helio, which focused on the complete jūjutsu system, the Valente brothers also, from a young age, practiced striking and throwing techniques with high level experts in boxing and jūdō.
