Leandro History
Leandro Lo Pereira do Nascimento
Leandro Lo Pereira do Nascimento, “Leandro Lo”, was one of the most accomplished Brazilian jiu-jitsu athletes to have ever lived. Like many legends in sport, Leandro came from humble beginnings. But it was those beginnings that would shape his character and ignite a passion to become more.
Leandro was born in May of 1989 on the east side of São Paulo, one of the poorest areas of the city. He started jiu-jitsu at the age of 15 through Projecto Social Lutando Pelo Bem (PSLPB), a social project led by Cicero Costha for underprivileged kids in São Paulo. While Leandro achieved some success during his youth, it wasn’t until 2011 that he really started making a name for himself.
