Red-and-White Belt (8th Degree), José Henrique Leão Teixeira Filho — known in the Jiu-Jitsu world as “Zé Beleza” — is one of the masters who helped shape the history of the “arte suave” in Brazil and around the world.
A direct student of the legendary Rolls Gracie and promoted to black belt by Carlos Gracie Jr., he was one of the founders of Gracie Barra and co-founder of CBJJ/IBJJF, today the largest governing body in the sport. His lineage connects directly to the very origins of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu:
More than his competitive journey, what makes Master Leão Teixeira truly unique is his educational vision. In the 1980s, he became a pioneer by creating structured Jiu-Jitsu programs for children — at a time when almost no one was paying attention to this audience.
His innovative methods transformed classes at Gracie Barra and introduced hundreds of children to the art — many of whom would later become world champions.
From this experience, the Leão Teixeira Jiu-Jitsu School was born, now a benchmark in children’s Jiu-Jitsu education. There, Jiu-Jitsu became much more than a martial art: it became a powerful educational tool.
Master Leão Teixeira also brought Jiu-Jitsu into after-school programs at institutions such as the American School of Rio de Janeiro and Escola Eleva, blending pedagogy, sport, and life values. His school grew into a true educational laboratory, creating replicable teaching systems that engage students, empower teachers, and involve families.
