Vicente Junior represents the golden era of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, beginning his journey in Brazil during the early 1980s under the direct tutelage of Carlson Gracie Sr., from whom he received his black belt in 1995. This prestigious lineage, combined with his competitive success and decades of teaching experience, has established him as one of the most traditionally trained and technically precise instructors of his generation.
After moving to the United States in the late 1990s, Vicente has become a cornerstone of American BJJ development, founding Carlson Gracie Team Connecticut and producing numerous high-level practitioners and MMA fighters. His competitive achievements include multiple Brazilian National Championships and Pan American titles, but it's his ability to transmit knowledge that truly sets him apart.
As a 5th-degree black belt (coral belt), Vicente embodies the depth of understanding that comes only from a lifetime dedicated to the art. His teaching style, characterized by meticulous attention to detail and emphasis on fundamental principles, has made him one of the most sought-after seminar instructors in the global BJJ community.
