ANOTHER OF PEDENEIRAS’ GREAT STUDENTS WAS RAMON LEMOS. IN 2000 HE OPENED UP HIS OWN SCHOOL IN THE CITY OF RIO CLARO, BRAZIL WHICH FORMED SOME OF TODAY’S TOP JIU JITSU COMPETITORS AND WORLD CHAMPIONS. TWO OF RAMON’S STANDOUTS INCLUDE GUI AND RAFAEL MENDES, WHO HAVE STUDIED UNDER HIM SINCE THEY WERE WHITE BELTS. IN 2008, RAMON (WITH ANDRE GALVAO) DECIDED TO FORM ATOS, NAMED AFTER THE BIBLICAL BOOK OF ACTS.
