From IBJJF to ADCC: The Meteoric Rise of Maria Ruffatto
In this episode of Chokeholds & Chill, we sit down with Maria Ruffatto, a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt under Gustavo Bessa and Ighor Horta. Maria has taken the BJJ world by storm, securing multiple IBJJF titles and dominating the South American ADCC Trials in 2024. We’ll delve into her journey from Brazil to the United States, her rapid ascent through the ranks, and her experiences training in Oregon.
But that’s not all—Maria isn’t just a force on the mats, she’s also navigating life as a newlywed! We’ll talk about how she and her husband, also a Jiu-Jitsu practitioner, balance life, love, and training.
Join us for an engaging conversation with one of the sport’s most promising athletes.
