What is this?
Atos Jiu-Jitsu
, founded in 2008 by Prof. Andre Galvao and his friend
Prof. Ramon Lemos, has become one the most recognized and
respected names in the Jiu-jitsu industry.
As one of the smallest teams in the sport,
Atos has influenced the way the world practices and
defines modern jiu-jitsu. Atos Jiu-Jitsu is linked to
the evolution of the 50/50 guard, leg drag, and berimbolo.
There is a great sense of quality over quantity within the Atos team,
which relates to our motto, “Together we are Stronger.” The
Atos team is currently breeding a new crop of talented
Jiu-Jitsu athletes who are successfully showcasing their skills in not
only in the world of sport Jiu-Jitsu, but also within the world of mixed
martial arts. Many BJJ and MMA competitors seek
Atos Jiu-Jitsu as their brand of BJJ because of the
success the team has experienced at the highest levels of BJJ
competition.
Atos was founded by two friends who
shared the same religious beliefs and an intense passion for Jiu-Jitsu.
The word “Atos” is the Portuguese word for “acts,”,
which specifically references “The Book of Acts” in the bible, based on
the belief that “God can do amazing things through ordinary people, when
He empowers them through His Spirit.” Today, the
Atos jiu-jitsu association members and competitors
continue to spread their innovative style of jiu-jitsu across the world.
You can currently find Atos affiliates in over
20 countries worldwide including Ukraine.
