The 2025 IBJJF World Championships are in the books – what a week it was for Team Atos.
From Day 1 through the final podium celebrations, we saw courage, heart, and world-class execution from our athletes.
And once again, the Dream Team showed why they’re the future of women’s Jiu-Jitsu.
Here are the highlights.
Dream Team: Building a Legacy
India Risby, Emily Leyva, and Bia Alves all struck gold on Day 1. Emily’s performance was so strong she was promoted to brown belt right on the podium – a moment none of us will forget.
Bia also earned her promotion after dominating the Blue Belt Medium-Heavy division.
These young women are setting the tone for the next generation.
Brown Belt Domination
Day 2 was pure fire.
In the Blue Belt divisions, both Dania Silva and Eduardo “Dudu” Cancela became Blue Belt World Champions.
Then came the Brown Belts. Vinicius Inacio, Leticia Teixeira, Adrian Roberto, Sarah Galvao, and Maria Raniele Alencar all secured their positions at the top of the podium.
To top it off, we promoted these five World Champions to Black Belts.
Saturday and Sunday
On Saturday, Rogério Drews took gold in the Purple Belt Heavyweight division, and Adrian Roberto became Brown Belt Ultra-Heavyweight World Champion
Eight Atos Black Belts qualified for the finals on Sunday – a huge accomplishment in itself.
On Sunday, João “Bisnaga” Mendes sealed the weekend with a Black Belt World Title in the Featherweight division.
That moment captured everything we strive for: preparation, perseverance, and presence under pressure.
Atos: Grand Slam Academy of the Year PLUS #1 Female Team
During the event, Atos Jiu-Jitsu was awarded the #1 Grand Slam Academy for the 2024/2025 season by the IBJJF.

Faith. Unity. Hard work. That’s the shield and sword we carry.
