15X Black Belt World Champion Atos HQ Head Black Belt Andre Galvao teaches the Torreando Pass and the Long Step Pass from De La Riva Guard, during the 6:15pm class on 11/11/2019.

The Legend of our sport Andre Galvao go over some ways that you can use this pass differently, but with the same result…getting the pass.

The Toreando Pass, meaning "bull fighter pass" uses a motion similar to how a matador would entice a bull with the red cape. This technique works beautifully in both gi and no gi, which adds to its value as a high percentage pass to a very high percentage of opponents reaction on giving up his back while you are attacking.

Andre Galvao is one of the greatest BJJ athletes of all time, with 6 IBJJF World Championship titles, 10 IBJJF Pan American Championships, and 6 ADCC World Championship titles (4x as the ADCC Super Fight Champion). He received his black belt from Luis “Careca” Dagmar, having also worked extensively with Fernando Terere. Galvao is also a former mixed martial artist, with an MMA record of 5-2-0, before he retired to lead the Atos Jiu-Jitsu Academy's Headquarters in San Diego, California.

Today, Atos is considered one of the best jiu-jitsu academies in the world, producing World Champion athletes at all levels, from juvenile and white belt all the way to black belt. Galvao's mission with Atos BJJ On Demand is to share the lessons, and experiences he has acquired competing and coaching over the years.
