Henrique Betta Biography

Henrique Betta was born on November 13, 1998, in Porciúncula, a small Brazilian municipality on Rio de Janeiro’s state border with Minas Gerais.

As a child, Henrique was a handful and his parents quickly included sports in his daily routine. Jiu-jitsu was one of such activities, which he started at 6, he was also an avid karate and football (soccer) player up until his 16th birthday when he opted to focus his efforts on BJJ.

Rafael Gonçalves was Henrique’s first instructor, responsible for his promotions across all the kids’ belts.

When he was a juvenile blue belt, Betta attended a Leo Santos workshop, a legendary competitor of the Nova União team from the early 2000s. The experience transformed Henrique’s perspective as he pursued becoming a professional athlete after the event.

To help him achieve his goals in the sport, Henrique became a student of Vinicius Gimenes who promoted the young athlete to the purple belt rank before he switched gears and moved to Maringá in the state of Paraná, to work with Rodrigo Feijão‘s professional squad, a training center with a long history of producing world-class athletes like the Munis Brothers and the Sodre Brothers. Coach Feijão promoted Henrique Betta to the black belt rank in January 2024.
