Gilberto was born in Brazil, where he was first introduced to football (soccer) at the age of 10 in Palmeiras – a Brazilian professional football club based in São Paulo.

At 15 he was invited to compete in a championship in Chile, and at 16 he competed at a championship in Sweden and Denmark. It was in Denmark that he won his first championship, Dana Cup Hjorring.

He returned to Brazil straight away and joined a Les Mills licensed gym, where he learned about POWER JUMP, fell in love with this class and joined the University of Physical Education. Little by little, he became familiar with the other Les Mills programmes and discovered his passion for BODYATTACK. This fuelled his dream of becoming a trainer and presenter at Les Mills, an aspiration that has led him to success as an instructor since 2018. 

Gilberto is a deeply caring person who finds the greatest value in helping people go through an experience that makes them happy, confident, and strong. He realises how being overweight affects many aspects of life, and he wants to help others discover the benefits and joys of training that have helped him become the person he is today.
