Giovanna Carneiro Biography
Giovanna Carneiro was born in January 2005, in São João de Meriti, a Brazilian municipality in Rio de Janeiro but grew up in Belford Roxo, a metropolitan region in the Marvelous City.
Being the daughter of a jiu-jitsu practitioner, Giovanna was introduced to the Gentle Art early in her life, specifically at age 3, under her dad’s instruction, Mr. Itagiba Carneiro.
As Giovanna’s father, Itagiba Carneiro was associated with the GF Team, Giovanna represented the Rio de Janeiro-based squad for several years, while climbing the sport’s ranks.
Carneiro’s good form was picked up by Sao Paulo’s professional squad, Team Fratres in 2023 after an epic double gold performance at the Brazilian Nationals. The management showed interest in signing the (then) 18-year-old purple belt to their workgroup, though the offer would only be accepted the following year.
In June 2024, after an epic performance at the IBJJF World Championship, Giovanna Carneiro was promoted to black belt by her father, Itagiba Carneiro.
