Luan Azevedo Lima Biography

Luan Azevedo was born on November 10, 1998, in Pescador a municipality in the state of Minas Gerais in the Southeast region of Brazil, growing up in the neighboring town of Governador Valadares.

Drawn to martial arts from a very young age, by the time he was 4 years old, Luan was on the mats, training. First with karate – only for a couple of months, and soon after with jiu-jitsu and Thai Boxing, Azevedo was also precocious at competing, as he almost immediately asked to start competing in jiu-jitsu.

Azevedo’s first steps on the mats were taken under the guidance of coach Jackson Moura of the De La Riva Team, his training would later be taken by Diego Balunta and finally Patrick Vandesteen of the Centro De Treinamento Pitbull, where he arrived as a green belt. It was coach Vandesteen who introduced Luan to Cicero Costha, leader of the São Paulo based team: PSLPB.

Luan was 12 to 13 years old when he met Master Cicero for the first time, traveling to São Paulo to train with the legendary instructor. This visit led him to move to the state capital to work with PSLPB team leader, going on to become a full-time athlete from the time he earned his blue belt. From green onwards, all belt promotions were led by Costha, with the exception of his black belt, which was handed by the PSLPB team “captain” Tiago Barros with the full approval. A ceremony that took place in August 2019.
