Ivanka Trump demonstrated her jiu-jitsu skills at Gisele Bündchen’s boyfriend’s gym, after her daughter ignited her pᴀssion for the combat sport. 

The 43-year-old daughter of President Donald Trump hit the mats at the Valente Brothers gym in Miami, Florida.

She shared two clips to her Instagram on Friday, showing her progress as she trained with Gui Valente, 44, who is one of the brothers of Gisele’s, 44, boyfriend Joaquim, 37.

Joaquim and his other brother Pedro were also pictured at the end of the clip. 

Though Ivanka is a relative novice in martial arts, holding a blue belt, the Valente brothers, along with their father Pedro Sr., all possess black belts, with Pedro Sr. having trained under the legendary Grandmaster Helio Gracie. 

Ivanka is not the first high-profile client trained at the Valente Brothers jiu-jitsu studio. Joaquim previously trained Gisele and her kids for a number of years before her divorce from Tom Brady.

Gisele then decided to take classes too. Following her split from Brady, the two began dating, and recently welcomed their first child.

The caption on Ivanka’s clip, which was shared jointly to her and the Valente Brothers’ accounts, read: ‘Jiu-Jitsu is more than a martial art. Rooted in ancient tradition and refined over generations, it offers a path to physical confidence, mental clarity, and emotional balance.’

‘Its philosophy, reflected in the @753Code, reminds us that true strength comes from character, discipline, and purpose.’

‘What makes this journey even more meaningful is sharing it with those we respect and value. As families, training together gives us the rare gift of growing side by side, on the mat and in life. @ivankatrump’

Ivanka was pictured taking her kids to classes at the studio a number of times in the past.

In fact, it was her daughter, Arabella, 13, who wanted to take the class – so Ivanka signed her up to work with the Valente brothers.

‘It is good for everyone,’ she said in an interview on The Skinny Confidential Him & Her podcast in January. 

‘It’s almost like a moving meditation because the movements are so micro,’ she explained. ‘It’s like three-dimensional chess.’

‘It’s fun,’ she went on, adding that the practice ‘combines physical movements and philosophy in an amazing way.’ 

Aside from Arabella, Ivanka also shares sons Joseph, 10, and Theodore, eight, with husband Jared Kushner, 44, to whom she’s been married to since 2009.

In January, Ivanka pulled back the curtain on her health and wellness routines on The Skinny Confidential podcast – and even revealed the two things that have made the biggest difference in ‘transforming’ her body.

She went in-depth on her various health and beauty routines, explaining that combining weight lifting and eating high protein really helped change how she looked.

‘Something that I think has been a mᴀssive change for me since I moved to Miami, I started prioritizing exercise,’ she revealed during the episode.

‘Initially, that took the form of yoga and Pilates, these things that I had done at various points of my life, but now I had the ability, because I was on my own schedule, to make them more consistent and a more regular part of my life,’ Ivanka said.

‘Gradually, I started doing more resistance and weight training, and that’s when I saw a mᴀssive difference,’ she continued.

‘My whole body changed. But that’s when I really noticed a mᴀssive change for me, and my body composition fundamentally changed. I got stronger, I got leaner, and I could kind of get away with it because I’m really tall, so I can look lean even if I wasn’t strong,’ Ivanka said.

It was her daughter, Arabella, 13, who got her interested in Jiu-Jitsu; seen with her husband Jared Kushner, 44, and their three kids: Arabella, Joseph, 10, and Theodore, eight

The pair have been married since 2009

However, she admitted that while yoga and Pilates are definitely activities that she enjoys more than resistance training, she has noticed that they’re not as effective for her body. 

‘Yoga and Pilates, while I enjoy them a lot more, to be honest, than resistance training, I was not able to develop muscle through them. I really needed this… it’s been life-changing,’ she admitted.

She said what really works for her are the simple exercises, like ‘pushes,’ ‘pulls’ and ‘ᴅᴇᴀᴅlifts.’

‘I don’t really enjoy doing it, I enjoy going for walks, I enjoy playing sports, I really enjoy Pilates and yoga, but I have seen such a transformation in terms of my health,’ Ivanka said.

‘But I can’t mention that without saying the protein element, because it’s that pairing of protein and resistance training and weight lifting… for a while I was doing weight lifting and I still was not consuming nearly enough protein, and I was not seeing the change,’ the former Presidential advisor continued.

‘It’s when I married those two things that I started noticing a difference.’

When it comes to food, every morning, Ivanka will make a shake that’s full of protein, banana, cacao, and creatine – a compound that helps to aid your muscles.

She joked that she was a ‘morning alchemist.’

Ivanka joins a list of high-profile clients at Valente Brothers. Joaquim trained Gisele and her kids before her divorce from Tom Brady. After their split, the two began dating, and recently welcomed their first child; Gisele seen in 2024

And, her morning concoctions don’t stop there – when she goes for a workout, she will also add some amino acids and electrolytes to her water.

‘As part of my daily routine, it’s pretty simple, I like to find and cultivate calm, because at basically every phase of my life, I now identify this as the status quo, there’s always a hurricane that I find myself in,’ Ivanka said.

‘It’s always so busy and active, whether that’s my role as a parent, professionally or otherwise, so things that help me with that, I think prayer is really helpful.

‘I think being grounded in nature, so I take walks as often as I can.’
