Zingano Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

Chief Instructor: Mauricio Zingano

Instructor
Mauricio Zingano was born in Rio De Janeiro Brazil in 1976. When he was 17 years old, his family moved to the U.S. where Mauricio was introduced to Jiu Jitsu by his brother Marco, who had gone to aviation school with one of Rickson’s Gracie top instructors, Luis Heredia.

Mauricio began training along with his brother at Rickson Gracie's academy in Santa Monica, CA in 1994 after taking a few introductory classes with Rickson’s younger brother, Royce Gracie. After 1 year training with Rickson, Marco, who drove his younger brother to Santa Monica twice a week for training, got a new job making it impossible for Mauricio to attend class a hour away.

Mauricio then began to train with Royce Gracie who had a school much closer to his house, but also much more expensive at the time. After about a year attending classes only once a week at the Gracie Academy in Torrance, Mauricio was awarded his blue belt by Royce Gracie and also started to learn how to teach Jiu Jitsu to other students, by becoming a permanent fixture at the Gracie Academy. Royce Gracie allowed Mauricio to continue his training for free in return for help around the school. Soon after Mauricio started to receive private lessons from Helio Gracie not only Jiu Jitsu but also in how to teach the art.
