2024 Year in Review: A Year of Growth and Community

As we look back on 2024, it’s incredible to see how much Fluxo Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has grown, not just as a school but as a community. This year has been one for the books, filled with milestones, achievements, and plenty of hard work on and off the mats. Let’s take a moment to reflect on everything we’ve accomplished together.

1. Expanded Programs for All Ages

Our kids’ program continues to thrive, introducing dozens of new students to the art of Jiu-Jitsu. It’s been inspiring to see our youngest grapplers grow in confidence, discipline, and skill throughout the year. The addition of advanced kids’ classes has also allowed some of our rising stars to take their game to the next level.

For adults, we saw more diversity in our offerings, from competition-focused classes to self-defense seminars, ensuring there’s something for everyone, regardless of goals or experience.

2. Competition Success

2024 was a big year for Fluxo athletes on the competition scene. Whether it was local tournaments or major championships, our team showed up, represented with heart, and brought home medals. The hard work in training paid off, but more importantly, our competitors displayed the values of respect, perseverance, and humility that define Fluxo.

3. Seminars and Special Events

This year, we had the privilege of hosting seminars with some of the biggest names in Jiu-Jitsu, and attending seminars, including the unforgettable session with Paulo Miyao, and the Wong kids. Where students deepened their understanding of berimbolos and guard work. Events like these remind us that Jiu-Jitsu is a journey of continuous learning, and we’re grateful to be part of a global community.

4. 7 Years Strong

2024 also marked 7 years of Fluxo Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Brampton! Celebrating this milestone with our members and their families was a highlight of the year. It’s humbling to see how far we’ve come since opening our doors, and it’s all thanks to the dedication and support of our students, coaches, and community.

Community Building

At Fluxo, Jiu-Jitsu is about more than just training—it’s about building a family. This year, we strengthened our connections through:

• Team-Building Events: From open mats to social gatherings, our students bonded both on and off the mats

• Charity Initiatives: Giving back to the community has always been important to us. Together, we raised funds and donated time to support local causes, showing the true spirit of martial arts.

• Parent and Family Engagement: Seeing families come together to support their kids in competitions, belt promotions, and regular classes has been inspiring. You’re the backbone of our school, and we’re grateful for your trust and involvement.

Looking Ahead to 2025

As we close out 2024, we’re excited about what’s to come in the new year. Here’s what you can expect:

• Continued Growth: We’re looking forward to expanding our programs even further, bringing in new classes and opportunities for all students.

• Focus on Competition: With a talented and dedicated team, 2025 will be another big year for Fluxo on the competition scene.

• Unified Branding: As we bring together Fluxo Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Brampton Muay Thai, and Queens Muay Thai under one unified name, we’re excited to strengthen our identity and mission as a martial arts community.

• Ongoing Learning: Look out for more world-class seminars, workshops, and special events designed to help you grow in your Jiu-Jitsu journey.

Thank You

To all our students, parents, and supporters: thank you for making 2024 an incredible year. Whether you’re stepping on the mats for the first time or you’ve been with us since the beginning, you’re part of what makes Fluxo special. Together, we’ve built more than a school—we’ve built a community where everyone is welcome, and where everyone can grow.

Here’s to another year of hard work, progress, and connection. We can’t wait to see what 2025 has in store for all of us.

See you on the mats!
