Bio


Mauro "Maurinho" Ayres was born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. His contact with Brazilian jiu-jitsu was in the summer of 1995 in a small town in the state. He decided to train in jiu-jitsu trying to avoid Judo takedowns through his teacher's suggestion. Around the 2000's, his commitment is taken to the next level when he was invited to be an instructor and share knowledge with new students.

Graduated as a Black Belt in 2006, he began his professional career as a competitor and disseminator of knowledge, through group and private classes, seminars and lectures on the Brazilian gentle art in several countries.

Focused on the balance and well-being of the student, it stands out for its ability to make learning the gentle art uncomplicated and for working with children's jiu-jitsu, not only for teaching techniques but also for working on essential values in the formation of individuals for a better society. .

He is currently a 4th degree black belt and has taught thousands of students around the world, owner of the Ipanema school and co-responsible for the Carlson Gracie affiliate in Resende.
