Rener Gracie grew up with four siblings, a son of Rorion and Suzanne Gracie; he is the grandson of Grandmaster Hélio Gracie, who was the founder of Gracie jiu-jitsu. Thus, he began to learn martial arts as a child, and received his black belt from his grandfather in 2002, when he was 19 years old.

Subsequently, his professional career began in 2003, when he competed at the Pan American Jiu-Jitsu Championship. In the same year, he won the first Southern California Pro-Am Invitational Championship, with submissions over opponents Cassio Werneck, Tyrone Glover, Jason “Mayhem” Miller, and Joe Stevenson.
