Jose Jurema Biography

Jose Jurema Carvalho was born on May 15, 2000, in João Pessoa, in the Brazilian state of Paraíba.

Connected with sports from a very young age, Jurema conquered his first sporting trophy in running at the tender age of 4. His childhood was spent competing in surfing, futsal (5-A-Side), and swimming before he transitioned to martial arts at 14.

Although his father was a lifelong martial artist, Jose didn’t feel the appeal of combat sports until his mid-teens. Once he did, he opted for Muay Thai, a style he practiced for 2 years and competed in twice. As a 16-year-old, Jurema finally fell compelled to train in his father’s sport, Jiu-Jitsu, under coach Harlean Oliveira’s instruction.

Accustomed to competing in every sport he practiced, Jurema brought the same intensity to BJJ. After nearly 1 year of training & competing, he decided to pursue grappling as a profession and convinced his parents to let him move to Sao Paulo to train full-time at Cicero Costha‘s gym. His parents agreed under the condition that he would stay in school and maintain good grades.

Jurema spent the whole of 2017 training with Costha, after which he returned to Joao Pessoa to study Physical Education at the university. There he joined one of the most successful teams in the State of Paraíba, Checkmat, with Tarcicio Jardim and Endres Barbosa. He remained under the instruction of these two coaches, who graded Jurema from his blue belt to the black belt rank, the latter in a promotion commissioned to Sebastian Lalli, who ceremonially tied the belt around Jurema’s waist in June 2023, in the United States as Jardim & Barbosa could not be present.
