Ivanka Trump, daughter of US President Donald Trump, showcased her jiu-jitsu skills in a newly released video from the Valente Brothers studio in Miami. The short clip, shared on Friday by Ivanka Trump, 43, and the Valente Brothers, highlights her intense training session at the martial arts school.
Wearing a blue belt, Ivanka Trump demonstrated an array of defensive techniques, including a powerful flip that sent her instructor slamming to the mat. In another segment, she was seen disarming a knife and delivering a series of punches, displaying her growing expertise in the martial art.
The Valente Brothers, co-owned by Joaquim Valente praised the deeper significance of the discipline. “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,” they wrote in an Instagram caption accompanying the video.
Ivanka Trump, who shares three children with husband Jared Kushner, previously revealed that jiu-jitsu is a regular part of her family’s fitness routine. She was also seen bowing alongside Joaquim, Gui, and Pedro Valente in the video, signifying her respect for the practice.
While Ivanka Trump played a significant role as a senior adviser during her father’s first White House term, she opted to step away from politics during his second campaign and term. Instead, she has focused on personal pursuits, including her commitment to martial arts training.
