Rerisson Gabriel Biography

Rerisson Gabriel was born on August 2002, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, growing up in the PPG slum, a community combined by 3 favelas, namely Pavão-Pavãozinho-Cantagalo.

The PPG is one of the most well-known favelas in Jiu-Jitsu due to the many sporting champions built in this location. Names like Fernando Terere, Jansen Gomes, Alan Finfou, Dudu Granzotto, to name a few and the sport is often sought after by the local children, and it was this allure that brought Rerisson’s older brother, Cleison Santos, to the mats and later Rerisson as well, when he was around 7 years old.

Rerisson worked at the local Cantagalo Project for many years, under the guidance of Douglas Rufino (Trator) and “Sandrinho” Vieira, deciding to pursue this sport as a profession at the age of 17.

In 2024, one of Rerisson’s best friends and teammates, Felipe Santos, switched camps in search of better living conditions and moved to the Alliance professional squad in Rio de Janeiro, a team led by coach Rodrigo “Travecks” Thiago. He would later intervene for Rerisson (then a brown belt) and his brother Cleisson (already a black belt) to also join the workgroup. The brothers switched camps a few months later and, on June 7th, Rerisson Gabriel was promoted to black belt by his brother Cleison Santos and team leader Thiago.
