Ivanka Trump isn’t letting Memorial Day Weekend slow her down. While many Americans kick off the holiday with cookouts and beach trips, the First Daughter hit the gym mats in South Florida for another Brazilian Jiu Jitsu session- this time with Gui Valente, one of the renowned Valente brothers.
The 43-year-old daughter of President Donald Trump carved out time to roll with Gui ahead of the unofficial start of summer. A snapshot from the session shows Ivanka mid-training, appearing confident and fully engaged. It’s clear she’s not just posing for pictures. She’s putting in the work.
This isn’t Ivanka’s first time training with the Valente family. Just last month, she joined Joaquim, Gui, and Pedro Valente for a session at their South Florida academy. The group focused on a range of techniques, including arm bars and throws, showing Ivanka is taking her practice seriously.

While exact details of the recent training weren’t disclosed, a video clip shared on social media by the Valente Brothers shows Ivanka moving through drills with composure and ease. She’s not playing around. Her time on the mat looks purposeful and focused.
Fans didn’t miss a beat online. Social media lit up with reactions ranging from admiration for her dedication to playful warnings.
“Wow! Impressive!” one user said.

Her return to the mats comes just after a sun-soaked getaway to Costa Rica, where she was seen surfing and spending time with Joaquim Valente’s girlfriend, Gisele Bündchen, and model Karlie Kloss. Now back in the U.S., Ivanka is clearly wasting no time jumping back into her training routine.
With summer just beginning, Ivanka seems to set a tone of discipline and strength. Whether she’s catching waves or drilling jiu-jitsu moves with top instructors, she’s not just staying active; she’s pushing herself.
