Ivanka Trump showcases jiu-jitsu skills – in studio owned by Tom Brady’s ex’s new beau

First daughter Ivanka Trump showed off her jiu-jitsu skills in a video shared online, a skill that could come in handy given the number of threats her father, President Donald J. Trump, endures.

While Ivanka looks impressive in the video shared on Instagram by both Ivanka and the Valente Brothers, it’s where the practice took place that set tongues wagging. She is grappling in the studio co-owned by Gisele Bundchen’s boyfriend — Bundchen, who is 44, just had a baby with Joaquim Valente after divorcing All-World QB Tom Brady in 2023.

Joaquim was a martial arts instructor for Bundchen and her children she had with Brady, though she said they were just friends and did not begin dating until after her divorce from Brady was finalized.

Ivanka is seen wearing a blue belt in the video while putting her instructor in chokeholds and armbars. She also disarms the instructor while he attacks with a knife.

“Jiu-Jitsu is more than a martial art. Rooted in tradition and guided by the 753 Code, it builds physical confidence, mental clarity, and emotional balance,” the Instagram caption reads. “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,” the caption concludes.

It’s easy to imagine a line around the building, should Ivanka need a sparring partner to grapple with.

Here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story, as seen on X:

I asked Grok to explain 753 code..

The 753 Code is a philosophical framework developed by the Valente Brothers, rooted in the traditions of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and inspired by the samurai code of Bushido. It’s designed to guide practitioners toward a balanced life, emphasizing…
