Rayron Gracie Biography
Rayron Gracie was born on December 8, 2001, in Sao Paulo, Brazil, but moved to his grandmother’s house in Rio de Janeiro, when he was just a few months old. Although he spent his formative years in Rio, he would visit his father, Ryan Gracie, in SP every month up until his dad’s passing, on December 15, 2007, a week after Rayron’s 6th birthday.
As expected, being a part of the most influential family in modern martial arts history, jiu-jitsu was present during Rayron’s upbringing, but it wasn’t until he moved to the United States (New York City), in 2015, that the young Gracie truly embraced his family’s trait.
While in the Big Apple, Rayron was given some responsibilities at his uncle’s gym, Renzo Gracie. This position drove the young Sao Paulo native to take jiu-jitsu seriously. His dedication and competitive prowess led to his blue belt promotion in a joint ceremony led by Renzo Gracie, Rolles, Igor, & Gregor Gracie.
As a juvenile blue belt, Rayron blossomed into one of the top young athletes in the world through his outstanding performances on the IBJJF circuit. His continuous success – first in the juvenile categories and later in the adult division – led the young athlete to seek out other training camps in the Gracie association, which included extended stays with one of the sport’s best athletes of all time, Roger Gracie, in England.
After continuous success on the international scene as a colored belt, on June 18, 2023, Rayron was promoted to black belt by his cousin, former ADCC & IBJJF World Champion, Kyra Gracie.
