Aurelie Le Vern Biography
Aurelie Le Vern was born on July 12, 1991, in Aix-en-Provence near the famous Côte d’Azur region of southern France.
Her life was dedicated to sports from early on, competing at an amateur level in a wide variety of activities, mostly outdoor sports. Among Aurelie’s most practiced physical endeavors were rock climbing, mountain biking, skiing, roller skating, motorbiking, paragliding, and high-mountain hiking, to name a few.
After many years dedicated to sports, when looking for a profession to follow in adulthood, young Aurelie opted to pursue physical education, finishing her degree in 2016 at one of her country’s top universities. While looking for a position within the highly competitive French public school system, Le Vern found work in the French Guiana, an overseas territory of France on the northeast coast of South America.
After arriving at the remote location, away from friends and family, Aurelie sought to keep herself occupied to fend off the inevitable feeling of being out of place. To kill that time, Le Vern found a martial arts school where she started practicing judo. At this same combat academy, jiu-jitsu classes ensued under the instruction of coach Tyrone Gonsalves.
Aurelie trained in judo for 1 year but, during that period, always felt curious about the BJJ classes. Eventually, her curiosity drove her to try a class, on September 2017.
Le Vern’s lifetime of extreme sports helped her adapt quickly to jiu-jitsu. The grip strength and dexterity of over a decade of rock climbing, and the stamina of cycling, had her playing more complex grappling maneuvers quicker than the average person, an evolution that translated well to the competition scene.
Training and competing as often as possible, Aurelie went through the belt ranks of BJJ quickly, earning all her belts from the hands of Gonsalves, including her black belt which she achieved in 5.5 years, at the podium of the 2023 IBJJF European Open (January).
During her first 5 years as a grappling competitor, Aurelie Le Ven followed a hectic schedule, between her school work, helping with the running of the classes with Tyrone at the Six Blades French Guiana Academy, and her own training. This daily routine helped her become one of the top athletes in the jiu-jitsu sporting world but was not a sustainable practice. Therefore, in 2023, Le Vern decided to put her work as a sports teacher on hold to pursue a full-time career in the sport.
